Volume Control
When Jog Mode is enabled on a card, Triggers 1 and 2 are also redefined to control the
volume on the DMP-100. Each activation of Trigger 1 simulates a push-and-turn
counterclockwise, i.e. a decrement of volume. In a similar way, each activation of Trigger
2 simulates an increment of volume. Volume may also be controlled normally via the front
panel knob.
Creating MP3 Files
CardPrep allows you to prepare existing MP3 audio files, but it does not provide facilities
to create them. There are literally hundreds of applications available which allow you to
convert audio CDs, tapes, or even phonograph records into MP3 files. Many also record
from your computer’s microphone directly into MP3, allowing you to generate your own
speech files. Most of these applications are either free or are very reasonably priced.
Some of the more popular MP3 packages are:
♦ MusicMatch Jukebox www.musicmatch.com
♦ Real Jukebox www.real.com
♦ WinAmp www.winamp.com
♦ iTunes www.itunes.com
These are full-featured applications which are mainly geared to managing a collection of
MP3 files on your computer.
Most MP3 applications also allow you to create “playlists”, or lists of MP3 files from your
collection. CardPrep can import these playlists directly.
A rather overwhelming list of available CD-to-MP3 software can be found at
