Gracenote®
Gracenote technology embedded into the radio helps manage and navigate the USB device music collection. When a USB device is
connected to the radio, Gracenote identifies the music collection and delivers the correct album, artist name, genres, and cover art on the screen. If information is missing, Gracenote will fill it in.
Searching Music Library Using Voice Recognition
Names: Gracenote improves music
search and navigation by identifying bands, artists, and albums names that may be hard to pronounce, irregular spellings, and nicknames. For example, Gracenote helps the system understand artist names like INXSor Mötley Crüe.It also allows the use of names like: The Boss,” “G.N.R,” “The Fab Four,and thousands of other famous artist nicknames as voice commands to access music. See Voice Recognition on page 48.
Normalization: If equipped, normalization helps to improve the voice recognition accuracy for titles that sound similar. It also helps
group long lists of genres into 10 common genres. For example, there may be multiple rock genres in the media library; normalization will group all those into one Rock Genre. Normalization default is off.
To turn Normalization on:
1. Press CONFIG or Config on the Home Page.
2. Press Radio Settings, then press Gracenote Options.
3. Press Normalization to turn on or off.
