1 Maestro Overview
As you edit music information, you are also changing it in your Olive Music Library. With large music collections and/
or network bandwidth limitations, these processes may be time consuming. Please note that Maestro may appear to
run slowly. Please be patient. Your music will thank you.
CREATING PLAYLISTS From the Playlists screen, create
a playlist by clicking the + New button in the top right.
Drag and drop tracks from anywhere within your library
into your new playlist.
ADD/CHANGE ALBUM ARTWORK Update or add album
artwork within your music library by clicking Album
Artwork in the left column. First download or scan the
album artwork as a JPEG le and save it to your computer. You will then nd and upload your selected album
artwork in Maestro.
CHANGE ALBUM GENRE Create a new sub-genre of
music or move music to different genres. From within
Genres on the left, click the + New button to create a
new genre title.
EDIT METADATA Add or change music information. For
example, with classical music, the composer and work
elds of a track may be pre-tagged with the artist and
album title elds. Select a track, or highlight several, click
Edit on the right and adjust track information where desired.
MERGE TWO ALBUMS INTO ONE Combine multiple CDs
from a box set into one album for continuous playback.
Similar to creating a playlist, simply drag and drop tracks
to combine albums.
