Intelligent CD Recognition

The I-Mix’s Intelligent CD Recognition feature allows you to access the unit’s internal database of album titles and song names to identify the CDs you record. (Intelligent CD Recognition cannot be used to identify analog recordings.) The IM-120 is equipped with an internal database which contains over 280,000 album titles and 3.5 million song names (version 2.02). The internal database contains only titles, not the music. Once identified, the CD’s album, artist and song names will be automatically be listed in each category. You can identify a CD before or after you record it.

You can identify a CD by using either the first few words in the title of the album or a key word located anywhere in the title of the album.

Tip: Searching by Title will usually produce faster results than searching by Keyword. Searching by Title looks for the first word in the album title. Searching by Keyword looks for the word anywhere in the title, resulting in a greater number of matches.

Tip: Typing errors can be corrected by using the Right and Left arrows to re-position the cursor and the Backspace button to erase characters. If you press the backspace more than three consecutive times, all the characters will disappear and the cursor will return to the far side of the screen.
