Copying Files To The Aurender - Aurender S10 User Manual

Mac Users
1. Locate the Finder menu bar at the top of your desktop.
2. Click GO -> CONNECT TO SERVER from the navigation bar.
3. Type in „smb://‟ followed by your Aurender‟s IP address. (For example: smb://192.168.1.171)
The IP address can be found under Conductor SETTINGS -> NAS.
4. Click Connect and a window will appear with a folder labeled „hdd1‟. Open the folder.
5. A popup window will ask for a Username and Password. They can be found in the iPad
application under SETTINGS -> NAS.
Note: If the Aurender is connected through a Gigabit network, the transfer speed will be roughly
50MB/sec. It could take 5-6 hours to copy 1TB of files. We recommend copying files in batches.
The Aurender is able to play back music and copy files simultaneously
Copying from USB Memory Devices
Insert a USB memory device already loaded with songs into USB port on the rear panel. In a
moment, the front display will show „USB Copying‟. When all files have been copied, the display
will blink „USB Copying Done‟. If the folder names are the same as the categories in the
Aurender second row (All, Classic, Jazz, Pop, Local), then the files will go into the respective
folders. If the folder names are not the same, then the files will go into Etc.
Copying from USB CD-ROM Drives
Connect a USB CD-ROM Drive to the USB ports and the Aurender will automatically rip the CD
to the HDD and tag songs with information from an internet database. The quality if conversion is
as good as EAC and other leading conversion software. However, please be advised that the
song metadata on Internet databases are often incorrect and need to be checked and edited.
It is much easier to edit song metadata using a PC or Mac. When using a leading converting
software such as dbPoweramp or Exact Audio Copy, there is no loss of data when files are
converted from CDs to uncompressed or lossless format. This is because the original data and
the recorded data are compared until they are exactly the same. If it isn‟t, an error message will
usually appear.
