Transferring songs (check in/out)

You can transfer songs between the playlists on your SonicStage software and external devices or media (for example, Memory Stick™ Walkman, Network Walkman, CD-RW). For more information on using your external devices or media, see the documentation that came with the product.

These instructions are for using the check in/out 1-step method. For information on using the 2-step method, read the SonicStage online Help-files.

Checking out songs

Checking out songs means transferring audio files from a computer to an external device (for example, a portable player).

To check out songs, proceed as follows:

1Connect the external device or insert the media (for example, a MagicGate Memory Stick™) into your computer.

2Click the Transfer tab to display the Transfer window.

Your computer automatically recognizes the connected external device or media and lists the content information in a new panel on the right side of the Transfer window.

3Select the playlist containing the song to check out.

The songs in the playlist are shown in the Playlist view panel located in the center of the Transfer window.

4From the Playlist view panel, select the song to be checked out. To check out more than one song at a time, hold down the <Ctrl> key and select additional songs.

5Click Check Out or drag the song to the appropriate position in the song list of the external device or media.

The checking out begins.

✍SonicStage does not work with the blue Memory Sticks™. For more information, read the OpenMG manual.

To cancel Check Out, click Stop, or click Cancel in the processing dialog box that is displayed during the Check Out process.
