Precautions
Notes on Installation
Prevent Unit Malfunction
The display window information and On
Screen Display (OSD) items are all in UPPER
CASE letters.
Power Cord: When your UMP-300 device is
left unattended or is not in use for an
extended period of time, unplug the unit
from the wall outlet.
When unplugging the player from the wall
outlet, always pull the plug, not the cord.
Do NOT handle the power cord with wet
hands.
Do NOT place the player in a moist
environment or in an area where there
might be an excessive amount of dust build
up (e.g. near a fan).
If water or any liquid should get into the unit,
turn off the power and unplug the unit
immediately. Consult your dealer or an
authorized repair station. Using the unit in
this state may lead to fire or electrical
shock.
Avoid high temperatures.
Do NOT expose the player to direct sunlight
or place near any heating device.
Select a place where the unit will be level,
dry, and not too cold or hot.
Do not operate unit on its side or where
subject to vibrations (e.g. speakers).
Leave sufficient distance between the TV
and unit.
Do not place heavy objects on top of unit.
This unit requires professional servicing. If
the unit no longer functions, unplug it from
the wall outlet and contact your dealer for
service options.
Never block the vents on the unit. Vents are
used to circulate air and maintain the
temperature of the player down. Blocking
the vents may result in damage to the unit.

Notes Regarding Discs
Maintenance of Discs
Handling
Cleaning
Power Cord
With some Disc’s, the player starts playback automatically after inserting the disc, whether or
not PLAYBACK CONTROL is on or off.
The image may be poor, noisy or grainy due to defects on the actual disc, and some functions as
described in this manual may not be possible on all discs.
When handling discs, always hold them from their edges and/or by the circle in the center.
NEVER write on the any surface of the disc for it may render the disc unreadable.
Store discs in a clean and dry environment. Storing CDs vertically will also help prevent
warping.
After use, insert CD into jacket or case to minimize wear and tear. DO NOT stack CDs on top of
one another.
Do not bend or press the disc. Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or any heat source.
Wipe the discs from time to time using a soft cloth. Always wipe from the center towards the
edges, NOT in circular motions.
DO NOT clean with any other cleaning solution, unless it is specifically made for disc
cleaning.
CDs revolve at very high speeds inside of players. Never attempt to play cracked or warped
CDs, since doing so may cause the disc to shatter or the player to malfunction.
Handle the power cord only by its plug, and do not unplug it by yanking on the cord. Touching the
cord while your hands are wet may lead to an electric shock or a short circuit.
If the cord becomes damaged or its wires become exposed, please replace the cord as soon as
possible in order to prevent an electric fire or shock. Check the power cord every few months to
ensure it is functioning properly.

BASIC RECORDING OPERATION FOR MP3+G
WHAT IS MP3+G
An MP3+G file is a karaoke-based file format that consists of two parts, an audio file in MP3 format and a
graphics file that displays on-screen lyrics. These two files combined are called an MP3+G file. An MP3+G file
will occupy about the same disc space required for a standard CD+G track.
The recording function on this player offers two applications.
1. Record your vocal performance in MP3 (CD, VCD) or MP3+G(CDG,MP3G) format and share
with your friends.
2. Transfer your existing CDG’s to MP3+G format.
RECORDING A PERFORMANCE:
With a memory card already inserted, allow the this player to play a CDG in disc mode. You
should hear audio and see graphics on your screen. (During this time, you will want to make any
special changes that you want, (echo, key change, etc…..)
Next, simply press the “record” button on the player or the remote control. The player will re-
start the song from the beginning with your users settings applied. There will be a record
percentage symbol in the upper left corner of the screen letting you know the recording status. Now
you can begin singing and the player will record your performance.
After you have recorded a track and with your memory card inserted, press the PLAYBACK
button on the remote. A window will open displaying all files that are on the memory card and the
machine will automatically select the last file you recorded for playback. The song should play,
displaying all recorded graphic files on the screen. If you used MP3+G or CDG formats while
recording. If using other formats like MP3, CD or VCD file to record your performance, only
audio(music plus vocal) will record and not video.
CDG DISC RIPPING TO MP3+G FILES:
This player can also be used to transfer CDG to an MP3+G format. An MP3+G file only occupies
about one eighth of the required space for a CDG. This is great way to back up your CDG’s and
protect your investment. Storing files as MP3+G gives you more options with your music. For
karaoke jockeys and people that frequent karaoke venues, you can now leave your CDGs at home
and travel with just your USB flash drive instead.
1. In disc mode, insert the CDG disc that you would like to rip. Make your sure
your desired memory card or USB drive is also inserted.
2. Allow the disc to play. Press DISC RIPPING button on the remote while the disc is
playing.
3. Choose options on the “RIP CD” screen then select the ripping speed between 1x (real time) and 4x.
You can also select the Mp3 compression rate (bigger number, better sound quality, but also bigger file
size, page 10).
15

4. Next, choose “ TRACKS” on the RIP CD” screen, to select one or few or all tracks which you desire to
transfer to MP3+G format.
Click here if you want to
check/uncheck all tracks
5. Go to “START” on the “RIP CD” screen, you will see the ripping information. To start the ripping
process, press ENTER.
6. After ripping has finished, select QUIT to leave the window and go back to machine playback mode.
7. Ripped files will be stored in a folder named “RIPPING_XX(XX= number)”in your SD card or USB storage
device.
Two status bars will appear showing the progress while ripping.
