GB 3 Applications
This CD player has especially been designed for
applications in PA systems. It can e. g. be used
for playing background music and is equipped
with a 6-fold CD magazine for uninterrupted
music replay.
It is possible to replay audio CDs, CDs you
have burnt yourself (audio CD-R), and CDs with
titles in the MP3 format and WMA format. How-
ever, problems may occur when playing re -
writable CDs (CD-RW), depending on the type of
CD, the CD burner and the burning software
used.
