Sooloos Collections: Advanced Guide Above we see Select and Edit Mode. Two active areas have appeared onn the top andd bottom of the t screen but we still have access to the transport, volumee and other navigation controls. At the top we have an X to exit this mode and we can see a summary of thee number selected from the t current Focus. At the bottom we have a number of new buttons: Select: In this mode Albums can be selected s by touching them (see the two examples above). If a set is selected then all the albums in that set s are selected for action. We also have h buttonss to select All albums in the library; Page to select all the albums we can see. While selecting we can browse to other pages using the alpha navigation or forward /back keys andd select more albums. Always be aware of how many albums are selected before performing an edit. None de-selects all albums. Edit: We can choose to edit Genres, Credits, Tags, or Moods for the selected albums. Create Set will group the selected albums into a ‘set’ (see page 5). Export allows us to add the selected albums to an Export destination. Delete The Delete key will perform (after( a warning) a non-recoverable delete d of all selected Albums. This is a powerful feature but you need to use it with care; stay alert! Page | 34
Sooloos Collections: Advanced Guide In Select and Edit Mode we can add and/or remove Genres, Credits, Tags, and Moods. Add/Remove Genre Here we showw the dialog screen s for Add/Remove Genres. Too add Classical/Classical/ /Baroque to the 32 selected albums pick it. Pressing Baroque once shows the blue highlight and + indicating this genre will be added. . If we press it again the select bar changes to a red highlightt and – (see below) and the Genre would be removed. Pressing a third time de-selects the Genre. Multiple M Genres can be added or removed in one operation. Complete thee edit with Save Changes. Note: Sooloos has a large number off Genres built in but there is room for customisation. Please see s the sections on Finer Points of Focus (page 40) and The Elements of Metadata (page 44). Note: We might use this feature to speed s up grooming of a collection. For example we might Focus on Handel as Composer and reasonably add the genre ‘Baroque’. Important Note: Add/remove is NOT search & replace! If we want to remove a field from any of the selected albums it will be done for those thatt contain it, however a simultaneous addition will appear on all selected albums. Remember also there is no ‘undo’‘ function in editing. Page | 35
