C.A.R. 4000 (English)
29
If you want to change the genre or mood, the following selection dialog is opened. The title is
at the top and the list with the various styles is shown below. Press the soft key labeled
ADD
to add your own terms. The procedure for inserting characters has been described in detail on
page 33.
If you have marked the year of release and press the down button again, you will get to even
more specialized details.
You can find detailed information on the technical format of the title in the line below the
track name: first, the compression process, MP3 in this case. WMA (Windows Media File) or
WAV (uncompressed WAV file) may also appear in this position. Then you will see the sample
rate (44.1 kHz), bit rate (128 kbps) and finally the file size (4.1 MB).
The next line down shows the “Entry Date”, which is the date on which this title was saved on
the hard disk.
In the bottom left corner the figure for the
Beats Per Minute
(BPM) is shown. In case of doubt
this figure is set to 0 (zero)—i.e. if this information was not entered into the database when
the data was imported from CD-ROM.
Note: The C.A.R. 4000 cannot analyze a title for the BPM itself. This information is also unfor-
tunately not provided by the CDDB database, i.e. when recording an audio-CD with title detec-
tion. The information must be entered manually in almost all cases.
For the sake of completeness we would also like to note that the top line, beside
INFO
, shows
the
track number
in the list or compilation, followed by the
total number of tracks
. To the right
of this you will find the current medium. And to the right again the
total time
of the current
active track is shown.
