Zen4000 - Creative Zen Style M300 4GB MP3 Player... ideal for music-on-hold with mains adapter! SPECIAL $99

Zen4000 (shown above) - SORRY NO LONGER AVAILABLE
The Creative Zen Style M300 is an MP3 player with 4GB of memory (holds up to 2000 songs) and capable of operating from mains power (using the ZEN4000P package) for music-on-hold systems. Switch on the mains power and the unit starts from the selected track, at the selected volume. If mains power is lost the unit continues to operate from the internal Li-ion battery for up to 24 hours! The unit automatically starts playing once mains power is restored and the battery is then recharged at the same time. It can be set, with internal menu, to continuously 'Shuffle' randomly between tracks or 'Repeat All' tracks ad-infinitum. The option to listen to radio or to record and play messages is also provided. NOTE, the ZEN4000P package is easy to set up and operate... comes already configured for music-on-hold (MOH) with mains adapter, headphones, USB cable and a 12 months warranty*.

Zen Style M300 Specifications: 4GB flash memory capacity (expand with 32GB microSD card slot), 33g weight, 55x44x13mm size, 37mm TFT LCD display, standard 3.5mm stereo mini-jack for headphones and phone connection plus Bluetooth 2.1 wireless technology, USB 2.0 transfer and handles audio file types: MP3, WMA (DRM9), WAV (IMA-ADPCM) and Audible Format 4 and AAX. It also displays pictures or photos in JPG format as well as playing SMV video clips (software to convert from other formats is provided). The Zen Style M300 also provides; microphone record and playback, FM radio and Bluetooth output to external speakers, car stereo or cordless headphones. Great for parties! You can simply have your M300 in your pocket whilst dancing as it transmits via high-quality aptX Bluetooth to the wireless speaker system.

The Zen Style M300 is the first player capable of driving 8 ohm speakers directly. Use it in waiting rooms, tiolets, lifts or other areas where low volume background-music (BGM) or a continuous message is required. Remember, it continues to operate even when a power failure occurs!

With an MP3 player there are no moving parts, there is nothing mechanical to wear out and there is no chance of music skipping. The Creative Zen requires no software for Linux, Mac OS (version 9 and above) or Windows to transfer data or music files. This means you can just plug into anyone's computer and upload or download files accordingly because it behaves just like any removable USB memory drive or Mass Storage Device. The microSD card slot also is accessible as a separate drive (no need to buy a special card reader to load your microSD memory). Supplied with earphones and mini USB B to standard USB A adapter. Remember, you can plug this player into the USB port on your computer or other device (e.g. HiFi systems, DVD players or car stereos with USB). Recognizes Microsoft Windows Media Player playlists (.wpl files) and synchronizes to your PC automatically!

*warranty only applies if used from internal battery or our mains power supply. Note, our power supply is recommended as many 'other' units will not work for music-on-hold applications!

Tips: You can download "public-domain" music from the net or convert your music CDs to MP3 or WMA, use Microsoft Media Player, Realplayer or Roxio Easy CD Creator etc. Note, Microsoft MovieMaker also allows you to edit tracks. e.g. adjust the volume or start and stop the track at any point! Besides music CDs you can also use the computer to convert records, tapes and voice recordings. Use Microsoft Movie Maker to create WMA files from the PC microphone or line input (i.e. input from a tape deck, DVD player, record turntable or other source). With a suitable cable (P6000, P6010 or P6020) you can use it with a HiFi or TV to play your special selection of music. Or if you use a laptop, like I do at parties, plug it straight into the USB socket and start playing the songs with Windows Media Player or similar program. You could use the repeat function on these MP3 players to play an affirmation or other information (e.g. foreign language lesson) whilst sleeping or meditating. Many companies have now purchased the Zen package to feed music and advertising into their PABX telephone system for music-on-hold (MOH) or background-music (BGM). Why have a radio station with other people's advertisements or music that you don't like being fed to your customers? Or why use an expensive CD player and CD which wear out quickly if running 24/7 - besides it only plays 20 tracks! Get the Zen and place 2000 songs or more on it (up to 15,000 songs with 32GB microSD card at 64kbps) with your own advertising and Bob's your uncle! Note, in Australia you are now required to pay a yearly license fee if feeding a radio station into your PABX system. Use this MP3 player to feed your own recorded message or public domain music to your PABX and pay no license fee. Important note, it is your responsibility to ensure that any equipment attached to a telephone system complies with all legal requirements (contact your PABX supplier). e.g. a Line Isolation Unit (LIU) may be required!

Further information: 1. The unit plugs into a USB port (the Zen requires a short adapter cable that is supplied) where it acts as a removable storage device (UFD). Plug'n play means that it automatically connects to your PC, MAC or other device (e.g. Car Stereo or HiFi system with USB) and provides you with various options, such as; play music files or display files etc. 2. The earphones are marked L and R for left and right side. The unit has a standard 3.5mm stereo headphone socket, so other headphones can be used. Indeed, if you find the supplied earpieces uncomfortable, you can always swap them for something else. 3. It uses flash memory that retains the music and data files even with a flat battery! 4. Converting your CD collection to WMA is best done using 'Microsoft Windows Media Player'. You can also use this to convert back to a CD. Use 'Windows Movie Maker' to edit audio files (e.g. voice recordings) or to connect together (concatenate) recordings into one file. Also use 'Windows Movie Maker' to convert external sources (tapes, records) through 'line-in' to WMA. Just click on the little microphone! You can also use 'Wave Out Mix' to capture audio from ANY SOURCE (e.g. YouTube video or internet radio) played on your PC. Also use 'Windows Movie Maker' to increase the volume level of files to obtain more output should maximum volume be insufficient. 5. We have sold 100's of units made by Creative Technology Ltd in the last five years and have had no ZEN units returned faulty*. Don't forget, because our MP3 players are sold for music-on-hold systems, they are often operating 24/7. Hundreds of Zen players have been operating now for over 5 years and none have been returned faulty! 6. Battery replacement on the Creative Zen Style M300 is simple but does require soldering. 7. Bluetooth is a fantasic way to connect to your speakers across the room and control it from the MP3 player held in your hand. Car stereos and other equipment also allow bluetooth connection to them! 8. Although the M300 can provide over 24 hours of operation, for extended operation (perhaps whilst flying, sailing or camping) why not purchase the Rezap RBC886 iPower unit for up to 7 days operation using 4 x AA batteries!

*please contact Procon Technology before upgrading the firmware in our player! Please consult the CD-ROM we supply for documentation regarding the "recovery mode" on the player.

#Your protected mode files (WMDRM) are best backed up on a CDROM in standard music format (i.e. as a music CD you can play on any CD player). If you don't do this you may lose the ability to play these files just by upgrading your Windows Media Player! BEWARE! This happened to me, I then had to download ALL the files again from my music provider... who has now gone out of business!

Disclaimer: The above specifications may be subject to change without notice. Although hundreds of these players have been sold in Australia for music-on-hold, Procon Technology cannot guarantee that it will work with all PABX or telephone systems. Please consult your telephone system supplier and obtain the necessary Line Isolation Unit (with input impedence of 32 ohm or greater) and connection cable with 3.5mm stereo plug as required.
