COPYING MUSIC FROM OTHER DISCS, DRIVES, OR DEVICES
The DDS also allows you to copy files to and from other drives (such as a mass storage device or the DDS’s CD/DVD
Drive). For more information on the terms and menus described here, please refer to THE LIBRARY section.
1. Press the Library button to go to the DDS’s list of available drives.
2. Use the Menu Buttons to select the drive containing the files you want to copy. If the files are on a disc in
the DDS’s CD/DVD drive, select
CD/DVD . If you are using an external drive, select the appropriate option
from the Menu Bar.
3. Use the Push Select knob to navigate the list.
ƒ
If the disc or device contains a library, you may access Files as well as any available Browse Lists (e.g.
Track , Artist , Genre , etc.) within that library.
ƒ
If the disc or device does not contain a library, you may only select Files .
4. Use the Push Select knob to navigate and highlight which file(s) you want to copy.
ƒ
If the disc or device contains a library, you can select individual files to copy (within either the library’s
Browse Lists or the
Files List), or you can select all the files grouped under a single Browse List (e.g. all
the tracks by the same artist, all the tracks from the same genre, etc.).
ƒ
If the disc or device does not contain a library, the files will be organized the way they were originally
transferred to the disc or device. In this case, you will only be able to copy one file at a time.
5. When you have highlighted the file or Browse List you want to copy, press the Next (Right) Menu button.
6. Select “ Copy .”
7. Use the Push Select knob to highlight where you want to copy the file. You can copy to the DDS Hard
Drive, or, if you have other storage devices connected to the DDS, you can copy to any of them. They must
contain a library and be a writable format. You cannot copy to your source drive, which will be identified with
“
(this device) ” next to it.
8. Select “ Copy ” again to begin copying, or select
“ Cancel ” to return to the previous menu. You will
see the Progress Bar while the file or Browse List
is copying. You can view or edit the tracks in the
copy queue by pressing the
Utility button,
selecting “ Copying ” from the Menu Bar, and
scrolling through the copy queue with the Push
Select knob. Selecting “
Remove ” will remove a
track from the copy queue. Selecting “ Cancel ”
will abort the current copying process and clear
the queue of all tracks (a dialog box will ask you to
confirm or cancel this command).
Once the copying process is complete, you can access your file(s) within the appropriate destination drive. Any
copied files can be accessed in the
Files Browse List as well as in the available Library Browse Lists (e.g. Track ,
Artist , Genre , etc.).
