Something that is re-iterated on this forum often (and for good reasons) is the importance of backing up. You reminded me to do mine today. I have added about 100 songs recently and upgraded to 4.09d...so I was due.....and you are absolutely right! Those singers would be disappointed if you somehow lost their "list"
. "Where's my stuff, man!"
I copy all my MTU files over to an external hard drive (I don't use the external for shows; not that i couldn't.....I just choose to use the internal drive). These are the KMA's, databases, etc.....As well I keep a copy of all this on another hard drive on my home machine and another off-site machine.......just in case........
Another file that I copy over is a file I made as I progressed through the process of loading Hoster over the last several years. This is just a simple text file that has all my XP computer settings and things that I have turned off or optimized to make Hoster run top-notch. I have not had to revert to a backup yet...but, as you all know, it is not a question of IF ...it is WHEN..
. Hoster (Lite) continues to run show after show without a hitch.
Excellent suggestion Wheeler!..... and I thank you for reminding me of doing this TODAY! ...and about every other week is my usual backup.
Take care and have fun with your shows.
