Search songs in your machine with the Search Engine
As the name suggests, it allows you to search your music files located in your “library”.
The music file library
It’s a big word to simply refer to where you store your music files.
The idea is that they are all under the same tree and not scattered everywhere in your computer.
By default, Karaboss considers that they are in the library “My Music”.
It is of course possible (and even desirable) to modify this location to possibly specify a subdirectory of “My Music” or any other place.
Avoid network disks or any other “slow” device, because the search engine will have a hard time responding to you as quickly as you would have liked.
In general, it is advisable to gather them in the same place, to avoid scanning your entire hard drive.
When a scan is performed, the search engine will browse the entire tree of your library and will create a file containing the name of the files and their location in order to speed up the search.
Tips:
It is strongly recommended to use the following standard for naming your files:
<author> – <song> .mid (.kar)
Example: Adele – Hometown Glory.kar
This way you can search by author and song name.
It is also better to regularly scan your library to take into account the additions of new music files (click on the scan button).
