Singing in the Rain

The design of this CD Walkman represents the new generation of Sony sports CD Walkman players, created to be durable, stylish, and ready for go-anywhere outdoor fun. It has been designed with rubber gaskets, bushings, and water resistant seals that help keep out water, moisture and dirt. Active control playback operation provides a control key, permitting the use of ATRAC CD Walkman functions while jogging or participating in other activities while the display built into the hand strap allows for fast and easy identification and location of your ATRAC3 or MP3 selections.

Getting Tuned Up

ATRAC3plus is an advanced audio compression technology offering multiple bit rates, allowing you to create music compilations tailored to your listening preference with the ability to get up to 490 songs on 1 CD-R/RW disc at 48kbps. ATRAC3plus offers extended song capacity with superior sound quality. You can also play back MP3 files (16-320kbps) downloaded and recorded onto a CD-R/RW disc, including compilations from your CD recorder deck or your PC. The supplied SonicStage simple burner software is easy to use and allows you to create your own ATRAC3plus music file compilations on CD-R/RW media using your PC's CD-Rom drive. The ability to add your own titles and edit your music groups allows for an element of customization in your portable music.

Easy Programming

A bookmark playback function makes CD programming easy. You can easily program your favorite songs from multiple CDs and play them back with the touch of a button. This feature makes it easy to program and play back a personalized mix of your favorite songs. CD Text and ID3 tagging allows you to easily see CD text information and ID3 information including song title, album title and artist name.

And The Hits Keep Coming

Skip-Free G-Protection technology adds shock protection to the pick-up mechanism, thereby minimizing the loss of position. This technology continues to provide quick recovery from both horizontal and vertical shock. 14 playback modes give you many predetermined choices in the playback of CDs, including hearing one track over and over, or a selection of tracks in a desired order, or tracks in Shuffle (random) order, and more. Digital Mega Bass sound uses digital processing technology to produce rich, deep bass tones with extremely low harmonic distortion. A digital volume function provides for very precise adjustment of volume level.
