What Is Emdb; Archiving Music - Zero One Ti 48 Instruction Manual

Ti48 Instruction Manual v1.2
5.4 What is EmDB
The Ti48 hard­disk drives contains a CD­recognition software known as EmDB. This
is a compressed version of the FreeDB database which is available on the internet :
www.freedb.org.
EmDB will recognise millions of CDs, providing information on the artist/group
name, the album title and, in most cases, track titles as well. All this information has
been (and continues to be) entered into the FreeDB database by the general public.
As FreeDB is a continually updated database, your EmDB can be out of date with
regards to the latest CD releases. EmDB can be updated by a CDROM available
periodically from Zero One Audio.
6. ARCHIVING MUSIC
6.1 The Ti48 has 250Gb of hard­disk drive capacity which will allow about 380
hours of uncompressed CD audio to be archived.
A whole CD can be archived or part of a CD (album subset) or just a few
tracks from a CD.
Once archived, the audio albums and individual tracks can be organised into
playlists. The file data associated with the albums and tracks can be edited and
organised( see User Manual for full details on audio file management).
