When the disc is inserted, the unit reads all the files on that disc. During this time, READING is displayed. If there are many folders or non-MP3 files on the disc, it may take a long time for play to begin or for the next MP3 file to start play. We recommend that you do not save unnecessary folders or files other than MP3 ones in the disc to be used for MP3 listening. A folder that does not include an MP3 file is skipped. Maximum number of files: 511 Maximum number of folders: 256 (including the root folder) Maximum number of folders and files in total: 512 Maximum directory levels: 8 Folder names and file names can be displayed with up to 64 characters including quotation marks. The characters A - Z, 0 - 9 and _ can be displayed on this unit. Characters a - z are displayed as A - Z (capitalized). Other characters are displayed as _. This unit conforms to Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 of the ID3 tag format. When the file has the ID3 tag information, song title, artist name and album name can be displayed and ID3 appears in the display. If the file does not have ID3 tag information, NO TITLE appears instead of song title, NO ARTIST appears instead of artist name, and NO ALBUM appears instead of album name. The ID3 tag information can be displayed with up to 30 characters. When naming, be sure to add the file extension mp3 to the file name. If you put the extension mp3 to a file other than an MP3 file, the unit cannot recognize the file properly and will generate random noise that could damage your speakers. The file name does not correspond to the ID3 tag.

Adjusting the volume or the audio emphasis will not affect the recording level.
