SmartTrax

SmartTrax is a music management system that allows for the organization of mp3 or WMA files into 6 standardized categories. The categories include My Selection, Playlist, Artist, Album, Genre and Song.

This systematic arrangement shortens the initiation time for mp3 discs. Navigation also becomes easier as files are placed into folders. If the mp3 disc is formatted with the Smart Trax feature, the SmartTrax icon lights on the display. The items in the root directory consist of 4 categories: ARTIST, GENRE, ALBUM and SONG.

mp3 Format

When a mp3 audio disc is read, the mp3 icon will light on the display. The titles in the home directory will be displayed.

FOLDER will light on the display if the current title is a folder.
