First Steps
NEW FILES:
This category will automatically created by the
ripper, whenever new CDs are read in. The date,
of when the CD was ripped, will be used as sub
category. In this sub category you will then find
all the titles that have been read in at this particular
day.
FIND RESULTS:
This category will be created from BPM Studio
after the initial installation, when all hard drives
are scanned for MP3 files. This category will
contain sub categories, sorted by drive letter, in
which all found MP3 files will be located.
DEFAULT:
If you do not wish to make further modifications
in different categories res. subcategories, you can
sort in all titles here. Otherwise just leave the
groups empty. This particular group/category is
necessary for BPM Studio to work properly, and
can not be deleted.
Drag&Drop out of the group window:
You can drag a whole group out of the
group window (to the left in File Archive
or Play List Archive), and drop it on a
player. The previous play list will then be
replaced with the new titles. If you drag
the titles into a play list, they will all be
amended to this list.
ARTIST:
This category is created individually. As sub
categories, different artists are defined. In one of
these sub categories all titles of a certain artist
present on the system are listed. This is very
useful if you have a lot of titles from one particular
artist, or whole albums are intended to be saved
together. The sub category MIKE OLDFIELD for
example contains a second branch sub category
called TUBULAR BELLS, in which all titles of this
particular album are saved.
TIME:
This also individually created category utilizes
different times as sub directories. Here titles are
saved for which not the artist, but the release date
is used as index.
Of course these are only examples. Every user
should create a File Archive according to his own
needs, and in the for him most overviewable
fashion, so it can be browsed quickly during
events.
Independent of the File Archive structure, it is
recommended to use the search function, to find
a particular title.
Read in the File- and Play List Archive chapter
about even more functions available in BPM
Studio for archiving titles. You can, for example
not only archive files, but whole Play Lists, in
which the order of titles will also contain all fades.
