Re/Naming Files

If you plan to operate the TWIN-BANK in Pro Mode, you need to make sure your tracks are named with a 5

digit prefix .i.e. 00001.avi. Even if you don’t ‘plan’ on operating in Pro Mode, it is still a good habit to form

as it will make creating a song list easier. Remember, MP3+G files can only be accessed in Pro Mode!

MP3+G renaming requires some special attention here. MP3+G tracks are composed of two files: .MP3

and .CGD. These two files need to have the same file name to play properly. When renaming a MP3+G

track, remember to rename both files so that their names are the same. Below is an example:

05849.mp3

05849.cdg

When renaming the files, all that is required is a 5 digit prefix. Refer the examples below:

00001.avi

00234-Can-Paperhouse.mp3 <<CORRECT

09783-01-145.mp3 <<CORRECT (note that the an MP3+G track had two files with the same name)

09783-01-145.cdg

01-06743.avi << INCORRECT (doesn’t start with 5 digit prefix)

0948.mp3 << INCORRECT (has a 4 digit prefix instead of a 5 digit prefix)

This will need to be done on your computer. Refer to your computer’s help section for information on

renaming files. There is also third-party file renaming software available for renaming hundreds of files at a

time.

Transferring Files to/from a Computer

Follow the instructions for connecting to a computer in the ‘Getting Connected’ section. Turn on the TWIN-

BANK drive that is going to be used in the transfer. When your computer recognizes the TWIN-BANK drive

it will appear on as a drive (this will differ depending on you computer platform and operating system).

The easiest way to transfer files is to drag and drop from one folder to another. Again, this will differ

depending on the computer. Please refer to your computers help section for details.
