INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on purchasing your Audio Server from
SpeakerCraft. The Audio Server is a revolutionary way of
filling your home with music.
Your Audio Server stores and catalogs your music
collection, allowing you to select any album or track
at the press of a key. You can browse through your
albums and tracks using convenient on-screen menus
displayed on your television, showing full album, track,
and artist names downloaded from the Gracenote Music
Recognition Service as well as album cover art illustration
from the XiVA on-line service. Your Audio Server also lets
you organize your music collection and create selections
for different occasions to suit your mood.
Incredible capacity
Your Audio Server is a hard disk based audio system
which can store thousands of hours of music, all with the
convenience of instant access, at the touch of a key.
Convenient TV screen
Play music, record CDs, or organize your library using
convenient on-screen menus which show the full album,
artist, and track names, allowing you to select the one
you want with a few simple selections.
Internet access for track listings
Your Audio Server records the CDs from your music
collection at high speed. It then automatically connects
to the Gracenote Music Recognition Service via the
built-in modem or Ethernet connection. This database
provides album and track details for a wide range of
CDs. This information can be downloaded and stored
with each CD you record, allowing you to select any item
in your music collection by album name, artist name,
track name, or genre, giving you total flexibility in the
way you access and control your music collection.
Create your own playlists
Your Audio Server allows you to compile personal
playlists and then automatically play tracks from the
playlist you have selected. Playlists let you customize
your Audio Server for each member of the family, or for
matching the music to the occasion or mood.
Instant access, irrespective of your music collection
Whether you select a track by title, album, artist, or
genre, your Audio Server locates it instantly and plays
it at the press of a key. All this is achieved with an
extremely simple and intuitive user interface, operated
using a few keys on the front panel or remote control.
