USB stick playback idea

[Mike C]

Has anyone tried loading audio files into the USBREC folder in addition to audio files in the USBPLAY folder to in a work around kind way create two different play list by selecting either the playback or the record folder from the USB player menu?
I would just try it myself but I’m no where near my QUPAc at the moment.
Or for that matter is there a tricky way to create playlist, I know having a sub folder within the USBPLAY fold does not work.

Thanks

Mike…

I find it simpler and more flexible to use AirPlay from my iPad via the Airport Express.

I have a portable mp3 player that I plug into the 1/8″ ST3 jack. That’s why it is there.

How can we put the pieces in a specific order in the usbplay mixer

another reason iTunes or other playback apps are most practical, at least for Dick and I.
And being able to stream the music via Apple Airport Express wirelessly is wonderful.

Connecting a laptop via usb straight to the usb input on the Qu-SB also works. It defaults to inputs 27 + 28 IIRC, so inputs you wouldn’t be able to use without an external stagebox normally. I.e. you’re gaining 2 inputs.

I leave the laptop at the stage and let it play Spotify continuously and simple raise or lower channel 27/28 faders at the appropriate time.

Using USB audio streaming for background music is only an option, if you do not wish to record. At least I get corrupted audio streams when trying this under Windows (probably some internal conflict between ASIO and WDM drivers).
