The concept

Before you begin, to find appropriate programs to build the music database, you should (at least) have a rough outline as one would like his songs by artist, genre, albums, and similar representation.

Certainly here plays the current size of the database an important role - but you should never forget: libraries grow! :-)

For small libraries like a simple structure (and thus representation) are sufficient. Probably it is enough even if you simply his music on several criteria can sort succession (ie artist, album, track number) and then simply durchscrollt from top to bottom.
is
But with collections of 20,000 or more connections to a such a concept hopelessly lost!

In such collections will you have more content options from which you just choose the display type that appears at the moment as the best.

It is intending to, for example as described above, its database as
[Artist] / [album] / [title]
For many artists it may also be useful to the artist yet to grasp after Anfanhsbuchstaben together so
[First letter of Artist] / [Artist] / [album] / [title]

For very many albums and performers, it often happens that you have 50 or even 100 different genre. This is often confusing and can be summarized genres into "Upper genres. As such one could also define Folk, Folk-Rock, Psychedelic Folk, Folk-Pop Folk simply as a generic genre. is

case of individual artist albums usually the album artist the same as the artist of each track. Is somewhat different if eg an album by Eric Clapton is taking, in which he plays the different songs with different guest performers. In the case could have been as

Title 1 = A Certain Girl
Artist 1 = Eric Clapton & The Yardbirds
Title 2 = White Room
Artist 2 = Eric Clapton & Cream
The album artist would be for the full album Eric Clapton.

would be for the above sorting and then Gruppierbeispiele certainly makes sense to choose the place of the artist album artist!


is much more complicated with so-called compilations or compilations in which the entire album is a compilation of songs of different performers is. This is where the album artist a central role.
entält Usually the day album artist in this kind of albums such thing as "Various Artists" or "VA".
From the basic idea of her is indeed the right approach, but the idea is far from finished thought.
In programs with which one node can, grouping, sorting and filtering define free offers, the "tinkering" with the album and album artist fields unexpected, more possibilities!
Often compilations and samplers consist of several albums, so a series of compilations, such as BRAVO Hits Vol.1 - Bravo Hits Vol 70
you wear now in the [album] of the first album "Bravo Hits Vol 1" in which the second album "Bravo Hits Vol 2", etc., and people carry into the [album artist] of all albums "VA - A BRAVO Hits", then one has immediately defined a clear filter criteria, while an excellent grouping criterion.

As all sampler with "VA -" start, I can clearly distinguish from "normal albums." I also have one group per series samplers.
This can be very helpful and clear, if the database eg all albums
BRAVO Hits
The Dome
Hit Giganten
The Ultimate Chart Show
contains.
Without such a grouping would have been simply a list of around 200 albums in a row today .... enjoy scrolling.
through the clear filter criterion "VA -" if you want you can also keep all wonderfully individual artists sampler from the artist list of the "normal" albums and build a really completely separate section for samplers.


Digression:
the cardinal mistake in solving the "compilation problem" was probably at Apple's iTunes (and then going into the iPod / iPads / iPhones) made.
To go to the dilemma that appear the individual artists of the songs on the samplers in the great performers list, has tried normal albums and samplers from each other. To this end we knew it is no different to help, as put up on the general conventions of id3tag away and to define a new tag field [Tcomp]. This field is marked, and iTunes recognizes that this is a sampler. This field is now compatible with anything or anyone and more than an identification that it is in general is a sampler you have not won.
By now (memory terms) ever-growing iPod and iPhone (the iPod Classic 160GB boasts one with a capacity of up to 40.00 titles) Apple itself is fatal in a dead end! With the complete lack of groupings, the rigid (or lack of) menu structure is now on iTunes already overburdened. Managing a real music is not possible.
I'm curious how you intend to solve this dilemma at Apple in the future :-)




As soon as one is now aware of how you want to build database and present his music, can be seen on the search for the appropriate program for converting go of the concept!

Happy hunting - until the next post

courage to change - with blue Senmotic

If you want to achieve with the Senmotic blue therapy maximum success, you need not have a strong will. But the courage to change. Change happens again by themselves if you give up the internal resistance to those. Most people are not aware that fundamental personal change in thinking and feeling, only on the physical level is possible at all.
Every morning when you wake up, you are choosing new for your life. If your life goes on as before or whether it is completely different. We often hear the following statements: I can not and will not change me. I am just as I am. you remember the slogan of the former Dudarfst advertising on television? I want to stay as I am. Marketing experts say that success is a fundamental need of many people: I want to stay as I am - the world and the other kindly to change. forget this, many contemporaries: You have a choice - how quickly erased that one yourself for that partner, for work, for this city and for this apartment has decided. The good news is: All you can deselect every second of your life and make it a different choice of countless possibilities. The fact that many people even remain in the most degrading life rather than break new ground, is a certain tragedy. It can be seen by contemporaries because they explain at length why something does not work. Instead of thinking in this period, as it could go.

, change is something new, which produces uncertainty and anxiety causes. One must say it very clearly: anxiety found only in own head instead and are invariably produced by ourselves. Therefore we can never inspire anyone fear - may be offended except ourselves, we never - but we can only feel insulted. How do we evaluate a thing on his mind is crucial. This rating triggers feelings in you and makes sure that you feel good or bad.

Suppose a man works for 1000 € (you may use any number) ;-) of the month, but wants a higher income. Nevertheless, he is squatting on the old job and will project for its own dissatisfaction on colleagues and bosses. These are of course all in his eyes and unable to get far too much money. ;-) But instead of imagining in the mind, how quickly you get a new job with more pay, that this job even can be fun to create such positive feelings, our man raises only the bad parts and produced in itself fears. Unconsciously he will act so that it is confirmed in his old world again. He will read incorrectly, for example, in the tabloid the unemployment statistics. He will read there that the unemployment rate is around 10%. If you ask this man why he announces not his job, he will then say: This high unemployment? And even pretty clever occur. ;-) This setting prevents life options and creates anxiety. our man had read that about 90% have jobs, then an opposite conclusion. This creates positive feelings and suddenly numerous options. Because if 90% have a job, there must be jobs galore. On the ratio of employed and unemployed, nothing has changed. Only our thinking and the emotions generated by us can stagnate or actively shape our lives with joy.


In general, the babes, many decisions in his life removed and resolved by others. Of course, always in their senses. ;-) If you are employed, for example, to put other people set for you when you have to come early when you go in the afternoon may know when you have free, how much you will leave and when and what salary is paid to you. You have the choice either to be an entrepreneur or if you want to be hired to do where it can get the best conditions. And to increase your skills by industry and higher market value. Sorry, do most of his contemporaries took more money and leave and then want to be diligent. Thus, under the motto: If I would pay the company more I would also give me more trouble. Well, effort is always rewarded. But only after the trouble has been.


In my profession, we find the same pattern. A visit to the doctor because of physical complaints confirmed the view that one can not change and you yourself would be helpless. It is very common that doctors say, for example: to your pelvic tilt, you can not change anything. You need to live. Scoliosis of the spine? I'm sorry for you, we just do not get longer. Or is being fobbed off with general platitudes: your spine worn. Just as with the other 8 billion people, including your doctor, too. For each spine wear out more or less wear over time. do


If people are already interested in change and progress, most citizens confined to their psyche. They also think that the mind dwells only in her head and without exception there, the behavior is controlled. This is due possibly unrealistic view of the fact that there is this absurd separation of body, mind and soul. There is a certain humor that only a human being as a whole is, however, that this will split itself into three parts. ;-) Now know the leading psychology, express how much psychological states in and through the body. And inverted postures affect our thinking (judgments and attitudes) and our feelings (Embodiment). I do not mean the posture that one assumes, by his arms folded in front of the body or talking his head slightly inclined.


For example, a person can say 10 times by himself, he would be an open person and open to new things while standing there with open arms. Anyone with a strained abdominal and consequently running around with a hunched back, has not the slightest idea of what an open and welcoming people of all. Whether such a tense man now stands with folded arms or open, is completely irrelevant. A permanently cemented posture, body structure and better cemented, also our thoughts and our feelings. The solid body structure out of a launch ever created the same movement pattern, the same old patterns of thought. A flexible, spontaneous and situation-oriented thinking and behavior is so impossible.


From my experience and observation out to me, people seem particularly affected mentally, which is very disorganized in the Body. I often get my verbal feedback from the respective clients. So I know if I have the structure of the body properly "read" and interpreted, and of course learn even more about the connection between body and psyche. Often, my colleagues and I have the impression that in the course of Senmotic blue treatments varies with the drastic changes in body structure and the behavior and thinking of the clients. And so were, the world is seen through different eyes.


Mental maturation processes are often initiated and developed to the part that has not been lived. Very robust clients become more sensitive, while others have suddenly a lot more enforcement capabilities. Sometimes it's good to be back. Sometimes one may not, however, can also take the butter on bread. The flexibility of the body finds its equivalent in a flexible mind. Only then the man is actually "one" with it.

ID3Tag

Wikipedia: "As an ID3 tag is defined as a format for additional information (Metadata) that may be contained in audio files of MP3 format. ID3 represents Identify to MP3 ("Identify an MP3 file). The English word day means as much as labels or label"

This means tags are pieces of information or "fields" in a music file in which you essential information about the can store music piece.
Central fields include title
Artist Album

Album Artist Genre

Track
No Disc No
etc.
A meticulous and structured filling these fields is not only important to get information about the music. It is also a necessary evil to the music database build and structure, and later to represent. As an example may serve
now Tom Jones. Includes our database different songs and albums from Tom Jones and wants to display all the tracks and albums by Tom Jones connected with a group, must of course be Tom Jones in Artist field, of course, written the same. It would be detrimental if some files in the Artist field, "Tom Jones" would be some "Tom Jones" and other "T. Jones ".
Our music database would identify three interpreters and thus View.
So: no pain, no gain! "Tag"

on the subject is' the be discussed again and again. Some practical applications for tagging of individual files or "Massentaggen" will be explained and will also address some of the programs for the automatic loading of tags from the Internet.

facts and details about ID3 tags can be viewed on the following pages (knowledge of the author is ahead for the next chapter)

Comman Problems With Biasi Boilers

Saving music files: Preliminary

for private use must be just any self- to think where he wants to save the data.
For some, it makes sense to keep the data directly to the PC when the data only from there to be accessed.
An external hard drive can make sense if one views his music data from your PC, now wants to access from the laptop. Just connect via USB to another computer and off you go. Did you
example. an external hard drive that can be accessed from Heimnetwerk, it may be very convenient to store the data there. You can access it from anywhere and play the data from anywhere. It should be noted, of course, that the connection must be fast enough! This applies in particular cases to test!

is made this decision it is important to consider how to structure his music data stored.
The larger the collection is (or at some point to be affected) the more essential it is to store structured data.
As is our library of many artists, we should create a folder for each artist. It is important that these Ordener stand in a logical order.
artist name: the Order of the artist "Tom Jones" should ideally be named [Jones, Tom].
band name: Bands often use an article before the actual name, eg. "The Beatles". Actually, you look in this case, yes for 'Beatles' and rather less on' The ... "and as you quickly 50 or 100 groups with" The "," The "and so can have, it is also recommended that the article here back to set, so [Beatles, The].
have now the Beatles (and even Tom Jones) published over many years, countless albums, studio albums, live albums, compilations (Best Of), singles, etc. To keep track of here it makes sense to create a folder for each albumart . In these types of albums folder you can place the folders for each of AIBN. In order to arrange this properly, it lends itself to the album name still continues to provide the Erscheiningsjahr. Furthermore, one can create for each album to the accompanying CD a single folder. We often see that people inside the folder for an album for another Ordener "Artwork", ie for Images CD covers, etc. It is more advantageous, however, these images directly to left in the folders with music files. There are several programs that the images can be automatically included in the day when they are in the same folder.
This creates a clear structure for our Beatles (partial) discography



[Beatles, The]
-----[ compilations]
----------[ 1995 Anthology 1]
- --------------[ CD1]
---------------[ CD2]
----------[ 1996 Anthology 2]
---------------[ CD1]
---------------[ CD2]
--------- - [1996 Anthology 3]
---------------[ CD1]
---------------[ CD2]
----- [Live Album]
----------[ 1962-65 Live At The BBC]
-----[ Studio Albums]
----------[ 1964 A Hard Day's Night]
- ---------[ 1965 Help!]
----------[ 1969 Yellow Submarine]
-----[ Singles]
---------- [1965 Help!]


sampler should be in a separate subfolder stores, eg [Various Artists]. Then a folder with the series name, eg. [BRAVO Hits] to continue the sampler name (possibly with a year of when no other sort numbering to present) and the CD number.

Also creates a clear structure

[Various Artists]
-----[ BRAVO Hits]
----------[ Bravo Hits Vol 01]
------- -------------[ CD1]
--------------------[ CD2]
----------[ Bravo Hits Vol 02]
------- -------------[ CD1]
--------------------[ CD2]

With such an organization of the volume are the library structure saved, you can find everything again and when a new album is added it is not difficult, the data in the right place to save.

One is also clear:
It is highly recommended to always save the data as close to the root directory of the hard disk, because otherwise the combination of path and file name too long!
That is, a library under

[My Documents]
----------[ My Music]
--------------------[ Own to store music database]

would not be very wise

would be better

[C: \\]
----------[ MusikDB]


filename:
The author of the blog suggests, the music files format
[Track Number] - [Artist]. - [title] filetype
to store. Renaming can be automated very easily with the (free) programs. Later this
will probably be a separate journal.

Hardy Weinberg Ap Bio Lab



In this blog I try to explain how his ever-growing music library (mp3, flac, etc.) are accurate and efficient can manage.

As long as you save 10, 20 or 50 albums manage and does not much organization, the database but has grown to 1,000 albums, with over 80,000 titles, these are perhaps 300 albums called Compilations (Sampler) requires it a well-conceived organization in order not to lose the overview.


has used to be made CDs and LPs on the shelf, sorted by artist, album name, genre, or simply by a polyline. Regardless of the storage media were tangible, you knew at some point looked like which disk and found (eventually) what they sought.


files are no longer available, you have to save together what belongs together, we must equip the files with all the necessary information (tags) that are needed for their identification and you just like a piece of music would have.


You need the right software to display his collection can be structured to be able to outfitters its files with the necessary information and of course you have to search its library for all possible criteria comfortable can. will


Last but not least, we gathered to hear his music too, and it must be suitable hardware available. Maybe you like mobile, listening to music from an MP3 player, the one at home then wants to connect to the stereo. Or you want to bring his music directly from the PC to the amplifier. Many opportunities are available and some of them will be discussed here.


works, the author of this blog as a freelance project consultant with an IT background, even for over 20 years Musikenthusiast, collectors and hobbyists with a music database of 80,000 + titles.

Fortunately, you can connect as a project consultant from time to time hobby and profession. In one project, the project team had the task of such a database with sound (music, audiobooks, podcasts, etc.) to create. The project team consisted of students and young staff, who should build under the direction of the author of this blog within 2 months a complete database management. The project leader should take advice only, not acting influence.

Some of the results of this project with a flow in this blog.



The exemplary library

Let's assume that the library we are trying to organize a multitude of artists is, of which in some cases the entire discography (that is, all albums) is present, others are just compilations (Best Of, Greatest Hits) exists and Some artists had only one einzigle singles. Furthermore, many samples exist (albums with multiple artists, "Various Artists" albums) and some series, consisting of a list of samplers (eg, Bravo Hits 01-50, the series would then BRAVO Hits).

are of course all these albums in different genres (music).
