29 folders.
Sequence of MP3 file play on a CD-ROM
The SoundWorks Radio CD 740 recognizes the
first 8 characters of an MP3 filename to determine
play sequence. Be sure to number your MP3 file-
names from the beginning of the filename. Most CD-
ROM burning programs support automatic number-
ing at the start of filenames when burning CD-ROMs.
Multi-session CD-ROM: The SoundWorks Radio
CD 740 will recognize just the first session of a CD-
ROM. Burn complete CD-ROMs for use with the
SoundWorks Radio CD 740.
RADIO PRESET FEATURES
When an FM frequency is stored on a PRESET, the
current Stereo/Wide/Mono and RDS Text setting is
also stored. When the PRESET is tapped, the stored
settings will override the JOG menu setting. Storing a
weak FM stereo station in MONO will insure cleaner
reproduction under varying reception conditions. You
can also elect to store FM stations with RDS text you
do not wish to see in STATIC or NO TEXT mode.
ALARM ADJUSTMENT FEATURES

audio CD into the radio and press Alarm 1 or Alarm 2
for two seconds to enter an Alarm Adjustment
session. During the Alarm Adjustment session, first
press the CD Play/Pause button to select Wake to
CD. Then use the Track/Tune buttons on the Radio
CD faceplate to select which track you would like to
play. During alarm activation, the radio will start CD
play from your selected track and continue playing
the CD tracks in sequence.
To wake to a specific MP3 file on a CD-ROM: The
SoundWorks Radio CD 740 also lets you select an
MP3 file (or track) on a CD-ROM for wakeup using
the Track/Tune button. During an Alarm Activation
session, a specific MP3 file for wakeup is selected
from the faceplate Track/Tune buttons. A simplified
scheme for track selection a CD-ROM is supported.
All MP3 files on a disc are represented by a number
that corresponds to the play sequence of the disc’s
MP3 files in Play All mode. Tracks at the top level of
the disc are numbered first followed by the tracks in
the first folder, then the second folder and so on.
