To Add Track Information

To add track information, click on track 1 in the track list. The Track Information form will now be displayed. You can now enter the title of track 1 and the duration of track 1(both these fields are optional) You can use the tab key to move between the Artist box and the Minutes box.

Clicking on the Add button with the arrow pointing to the right will save the track information to the track list on the Input form, and automatically advance to the next track.

TIP: Hitting the enter key will do the same as clicking on the above button.

There are a couple of other things to point out about the Track Information screen: -

There is a box with a tick (Automatically Tab To Seconds After Entering A Single Digit Number) – if the box has a tick in it the Program will automatically move the cursor to the Seconds box after a single digit has been entered in the Minutes box.

Most tracks have a play-time of less than 10 minutes so ticking this box will make it easier and quicker to enter your information.

If you want to enter a track with a play-time greater than 9 minutes, untick this box by clicking on it.

NOTE: Entering a character in the track duration box will automatically invalidate the entry and the duration will default to zero.

There are two option buttons on this form: -

Return To Track Information

Return To Minutes

These option buttons will select where the cursor returns when either of the Add buttons are selected, or you hit enter. They make entering any information easier and quicker.

If you are just entering track titles then make sure the top option button is selected. Once selected the cursor will always return to the track title box. Now all you need to do is enter the track title for each track and hit enter.

You may have already entered the track title information, and now you have returned to add all the track durations. This time select the bottom option button. Now all you need to do is enter the duration for each track and hit enter.

There is also a box where you can enter the total duration. This is the total of all the track durations for the selected recording. You can use minutes and seconds, or just seconds. The ‘+’ button will automatically add the track durations and enter the information in the relevant boxes.

It is possible to add together all the track duration entries for each entry in the database. This may be useful if you have imported a database that doesn’t have the total already entered, or if you forget to total the track durations when you entered information into the database.To total all the durations, select Utilities from the Main Menu screen and then select ‘Total Track Durations’.

When you have finished entering the track information click on the Close button on the Track Information screen.
