Hi, You can press the heading button to cause a new track to be inserted on a music disk or a new heading to be created on a DAISY title. This can also be done automatically on the pause length but I would recommend using the manual method to start with.
Thanks. Andrew. -----Original Message----- From: Tamru Belay [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 February 2005 13:22 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Joining the list Hi Andrew, Many thanks for your quick reply. Ok, I have another question: When I am recording music from my stereo to the PTR1, how do I divide each song into truck? Do I have to stop the recording process after each song finished and then start new recording for the next song? Thanks again.

You can record music CDs only if you use the music CDR/CDRWs you can buy from a store. When you put in a standard CDR/CDRW, you will be recording in DAISY format. When you put in a music CDRW (which are said to be of better quality than data disks), you can record only in CDA format, getting around 70 minutes on the disk. This will play in car stereos etc. 2. The PTR1 will take most cards - just ensure that the format is FAT/FAT32. If you are using a MMC or a smaller card than a PCMCIA memory card, use a PCMCIA card reader and it will work fine. 3. If recording a conference, better to use Daisy so you can [a] get a longer time of recording and [b] mark the recording up into sections etc, which is not possible under music CD recording. 4. If you play the PTR1 generated DAISY CD in a car MP3 player, the player needs to support traversal of directories on the disk. It may also cause issues because the PTR1 never gets rid of deleted sections from the MP3 file itself, as this causes major issues with CDR/CDRW technology. For example, if you recorded a section and then removed it, if you listened through a standard MP3 player, the section would still be on the disk. The PTR1 also uses a sequential writing mechanism on the MP3 audio file, so if you added bits of audio after the initial recording, you will hear things in the wrong order if not played through a DAISY player. There are functions in the PRS software to re-create the MP3 file for car MP3 players etc, if you give it a PTR1 generated book. Hope this helps. Andrew. -----Original Message----- From: Tamru Belay [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Mon 07/02/2005 08:47 To: [email protected] Subject: Joining the list Dear all, My name is Tamru Belay. I am new subscriber to this list. I have owned PTR1 since last week. I am trying to learn how to use from the user manual. I have few question: 1. How do I burn music CD with PTR1? 2. What type of PC card are compatible with the unit? 3. I would like to record speeches at the conference. so, Is the PTR1 record only daisy format? If not, how do I make CD that I can play in standard home or car stereo? 4. I want to copy sounds and music from my home stereo to PTR1 and I would like to play it in the standard CD player. How do I do it then? Thanks in advance. Cordially, Mr. Tamru E.
