What is MP3?
• An abbreviation of “MPEG audio layer3”,
MP3 is an audio compression format
that has become the standard format
among PC users. Its merit is that the
original audio data is compressed to
approximately 1/10 and high sound qual-
ity is maintained. This means that it is
possible to store the data of approxi-
mately 10 music CDs on a single CD-R/
RW disc, which in turn makes it possible
to play music for a long time without hav-
ing to change the disc.
What is WMA?
• An abbreviation of “Windows Media
Audio,” WMA is an audio compression
format developed by Microsoft.
• WMA files for which the DRM (Digital
Rights Management) function is on can-
not be played.
• Windows Media
TM and the Windows®
logo are trademarks or registered trade-
marks of Microsoft Corporation in the
United States and other countries.
What is AAC?
• An abbreviation of “Advanced Audio
Coding,” AAC is an audio compression
format used by MPEG2 and MPEG4.Points to remember when making MP3/
WMA/AAC files
Common
• High bit rate and high sampling fre-
quency are recommended for high qual-
ity sounds.
• Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not
recommended. Selecting VBR may
cause display of incorrect playing time
and jumpiness of playback.
• Playback sound quality varies depend-
ing on the encoding environment. For
details, refer to the user manual of the
encoding software and the writing soft-
ware in use.
