Entering An Album Collection

In order to manage the albums in your collection, any music cataloging software that you use requires that you enter a description of each album in your collection. If this is a time-consuming tedious process, if you must type in many details, it is unlikely that you will finish your task. 

Expedites Album Entry
Maestro Manager provides three methods that expedite entering album descriptions:

1. Manual: Making selections from intelligent, pre-programmed scrollable lists creates most of the album description. Use typing only to enter notes, album titles, or to make an infrequent addition to a list. Entering an album description takes little time since it primarily involves selecting pre-entered details.

2. Copy: Generates portions of an album description automatically. At the click of a button, Copy creates an album description similar to an album entered previously. To complete this description, simply make a few modifications. For instance, when entering two or more albums that have compositions by the same composer, changing Symphony 1 to Symphony 5, Abbado to Previn, and Chicago Symphony to London Symphony, is faster than entering the entire description manually. Copy is also beneficial when entering, for example, Telarc CD 80041 when its LP equivalent Telarc DG 10041 is already in the database.

Classical music cataloging software enters album descriptions automatically
With Archive a simple click creates a complete description of this album

3. Archive: Creates the entire album description automatically. At the click of a button, Archive adds a pre-entered album description to your album database. This results in an instantaneous entry of an album! Contained within six archive libraries, pre-entered album descriptions are available for many of the wonderful LPs on Decca, London, Lyrita, Mercury, RCA, Everest, EMI, and a few other labels. These archive libraries are optional enhancements to this software.

Duplicate Albums
For duplicates, Maestro Manager minimizes the amount of information entered to track each duplicate. Instead of entering an entire album description, only enter the details unique to that duplicate, such as the purchase price and the album's storage location.
