tracks – the only limitation is the size of the hard
drive of your computer. A number of features

are included to help you to keep your music
organized and find songs quickly and easily.

GROUPING TRACkS INTO CRATES

Scratch Live supports several ways of organizing
and sorting your file library. iTunes users will
notice that Scratch Live can incorporate your
existing iTunes library and playlists.
Scratch Live uses digital "crates" for quick
access to your favorite collections. There is no
limit to the number of crates you can create, and
any given track can be placed in multiple crates.
For example, you could organize your files into
the following crates, where any one track would
be filed in more than one crate:
• Hip Hop
• UK Hip Hop
• French Hip Hop
• Inst Hip Hop
• Old Hip Hop
• Hip Hop LPs
To make a new crate, click the Add New Crate
button in the bottom left corner of the main
screen
crate, double click the crate name.
You can change the order of tracks within a
crate by sorting by the "#" column and dragging
them up or down.

TIP: Check the 'Protect library' option in the
Library tab of the Setup screen to prevent
changes to your crates. If you do delete a
crate by accident, you can get it back from
the recycle bin / trash. Crate files have the
extension .crate.

SUBCRATES

You can drag and drop crates into other crates
to make subcrates. If you drag a crate to the very
left of the crate panel, it will stay in the top level
of the crate structure. If you drag the crate a little
to the right, onto the name of another crate, it
will make the crate you are dragging a sub crate
of the first crate.

SMART CRATES

Smart crates are crates which update their
contents by using keywords which are matched
with selected tags of your music library tracks.
Smart crates can be updated automatically or at
your discretion.
To create a smart crate, click the Add Smart
Crate button in the bottom left corner of the
main screen (blue crate
window will open which allows you to add the
rules to fill your smart crate. Press Add Rule to
