loading sound choice mp3g disc's

[Doug Bracey]

Has anyone purchased the Gem series from sound choice and if so what was the procedure to load them in my ext. hard drive to use in hoster like I did with all my cdg's?

Doug, what version of Hoster are you using?

I have been using xp for the last 6 years and now i just bought a new laptop from Bryan at mtu which has the latest version of hoster on it.
I was considering buying the new gem series because it has some of the songs i've been trying to get all these years.
But i'm not sure if i could import them into my ext. hard drive the same way I do with my cdg's.
And i forgot to mention that this laptop has the new windows 7

One thing is they just released 4.32 yesterday which has some fixes for the Search preview, so you might want to go ahead and update to it to get the fix.
Now for the MP3+Gs you will have to copy the song files from the CDs to the external hard drive then import them from there. Pick a folder on the external where you want to keep them because the new import for those types of files requires the originals stay in the folder with the KMH file for Hoster to use.
I hope they label the files with the Artist and Title in the file name or at least a DiskID and track number.

Thanks Dale, If you have the time I would really appreciate a call from you
I promise i would not give your number to anyone else.
There are some questions I'd really like to ask you,It seems as though we're both in about the same age group and probably been working at this music business for a long time.
I'd love to talk with another professional, we have so few of those in the area I work in, mostley people who are just getting started with their karaoke files.
So they haven't a clue when it comes to technical stuff.
If you could see your way clear to call me Dale Thanks.
