tion CD player and CD recorder with special features
designed for music teachers, choral directors, vocalists,

metronome, control the playback of CDs and MP3 files
for custom accompaniment, and record directly to CD.
It’s convenient and easy with the PSD340.

Recommended Media
The PSD340 will record on computer CD-R or CD-RW
data discs as well as “Music CD-R” discs. The most
important factor in choosing CD-R or CD-RW media is a
1X speed rating. Choose brand name discs that are
rated 1X (e.g. 1X - 40X) or imply 1X (e.g., “up to
40X”). We do not recommend using generic discs with
the PSD340. If possible, test any brand before buying in
bulk.
