Transferring my music to hard drive and then indexing it and then getting the right graphics with the tags and the right genre and information has been quite a long and drawn out process especially with some 30,000 tracks. The problem I then encountered was that when I shuffled the tracks to play randomly - the volumes were all different. After some weeks of going through them and equalising them they are now all set at an appropriate level so that they sound like they should and will allow me to listen without having to keep reaching for the volume control each time.
I'm now synchronising these with my backup drives and enjoying listening to some of the fruits of my labours. I like all sorts of music but this afternoon I'm giving my classical music a run out :-) Very nice too.
I now know to check all new music for correct tags and graphics and volume levels before adding and indexing my collection.
I can now get on with some other projects I have in mind including cataloguing all my Vinyl LPs, EPs and Singles and then seeing if I can move them to a collector or a shop or someone who might appreciate them. As always I reckon 90% are the same as everyone else has - it's the 10% of records I have that are Promos and specials or rare that will be wanted.
I can also get my desk clear of all these small bits of paper with notes on dB readings and the like!
