cue sheet confusion #2
I also don't understand how the cue sheets work. Right now I'm copying
the record sleeves on a scanner and saving them in a "bmp" format, and
"Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" is opening them. I've also saved some
as doc files in "Word", and they are smaller(in KB's, while the picture
viewer is in MB's), but as you told me before, they take awhile to
open. I know you say to download the cue sheets from your site, but I
don't understand how to set it up after download. Also a lot of the
songs I use aren't on it. I guess I don't understand how to link the cue
sheets to the songs(words) on your cue sheet data base. If all the songs
are in ONE file, how do I link each mp3 to only the words for that one
mp3. I would think it would bring up the words for all the songs, if
they're all in the same file. Do you understand what I'm saying? I
understand how to use a filing system pretty good, but can't figure out
how this works.
To use cue sheets in CSDS, you should be in (call from) the
'
Dance | Call from Screen' portion of the program. This part of the program allows full access (single key strokes) to the music player as well as to the cue sheet, lists of calls, and sequences.
Although cue sheets may be in almost any format, for optimal use
within CSDS, cue sheets should be in RTF (Rich Text Format),
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language), or TXT (Text) format. I suggest that you save your 'MS Word' cue sheet files in .rtf or .html format instead of .doc format.
Each cue sheet needs to be associated with a piece of music.
Use the 'Cue Sheet' field of the Music Database to do this.
To download cue sheets from our web site, you need to download
the file, then have CSDS process the file to create the cue sheets.
