Playing Your Found Songs

Sorting Your Found Songs

If you don’t see the Find window pictured below, click the image\ebx_1262519278.gif button on the toolbar.

 

Find a Specific File

You can search for a song by its title, artist or genre. For example, if you are looking for a song called "Love of My Life" you can type ‘love’ in the "Search for" field without the single quotes. Then press the ‘Search’ button.

Just click the songs you wish to add to the session to be burned to a cd. Once selected, the checkbox will appear checked and the text will turn blue.

 

Find By Specific Directory or Folder

You may also search for songs by directory or folder name.

For example, if you had a bunch of mp3 files in a folder called ‘my music’, you could search for those files by typing ‘my music’ in the "Search for" field. This is useful if you don’t remember the exact name of a song, but know where it is stored.

 

Playing Your Found Songs

You can play and preview your songs directly from the Find window. Just click the image\ebx_1126473771.gif button next to the song. See more on playback

 

Sorting your found songs

You can sort the songs by clicking one of the column headers. Click the column header again and it will sort it in the opposite direction.

The screen shot above shows where to click to sort by that column header.

 

Find By File Type

You can also select what file type you would like to filter the search by. For example, if you need to find wav files, make sure to change "File Types" control to "WAV Files". The default is "MP3 Files"

 

Adding songs

If you know where you songs are, you can quickly add them directly into CD Burner. To do this, click the "Add" button image\ebx_712497314.gif on the toolbar. You can also select "Add Tracks" from the "CD Session" menu.

A standard window will pop up and allow you to navigate to your songs folder. Select one or many songs to load.

 

Importing songs

You can drag songs from a Windows folder and then drop them onto the CD Burner window.

To do this, double click "My Computer" and navigate to the folder with your MP3s. Highlight one or many MP3s. Click on the blue or selected area of one of the files and then move the mouse over the CD Burner window. When the cursor has a + underneath it, you should release the mouse and your files will be imported.
