CD Reco 6 (Black)

The basic function follows the previous model "CD Reco 5", connecting wirelessly to a smartphone via Wi-Fi, and importing one album (about 60 minutes) in about 4 minutes. Since the song information is automatically acquired from gracenote, there is no need to enter the song title, and playback and management can be done with the same app. In addition to iPhone / Android smartphones, it also supports Android Walkman.

The size is about 145 (W) x 168 (D) x 17 (H) mm, and the weight is about 400 g. There are two body colors, black and white. It is basically driven by an AC adapter, but it can also be used with a mobile battery if a dedicated cable "ISCB-CD100K" (sold separately) is prepared.

Backup to USB memory / SD card and take out music are possible

Equipped with a new USB port and SD card slot, you can now copy and take out music data in your smartphone. Not only songs imported from CD records, but also songs transferred from iTunes and songs purchased / downloaded from various stores can be transferred as long as the data is not DRM-applied.

In addition to making it easier to manage a large music library than the traditionally supported DVD backup, you can also transfer songs to non-Android-based music players such as the Walkman S series and car navigation systems with a memory playback function. Considering the problem of "metadata is not read properly and the song order of the album is broken" peculiar to car navigation systems, the time stamps and file names are devised so that each company's car navigation system has the correct song order.

There is also an extra function that utilizes the USB port installed for backup and take-out functions. If you connect a USB speaker to the drive and turn on the power, you can use it as a simple CD player that does not require an application.

Will be compatible with car display audio

As a function for car listening, in addition to the method of putting data in a USB memory or SD card and playing it with a car navigation system, it also supports cooperation with display audio, which has been increasingly adopted in recent years.

Display audio is like a car navigation system that does not have a brain part, and is a system that equips the car with only screen and audio functions on the premise of linking with smartphones such as iPhone CarPlay and Android Auto. For example, in the case of Toyota Motor Corporation, many new models released after the fall of 2019 are equipped with display audio as standard equipment.

By supporting display audio for the CD-Reco dedicated app "CD-Reco Music," you can easily listen to songs downloaded and purchased on your smartphone or imported from a CD in the car with the same operation.

Display audio will be supported at a later date by updating a dedicated app. CD Reco 6 purchasers can use it for free, and it will be offered to users of conventional models for a fee.
