AYRE DX-5DSD - Manual (Page 20)

by purchasing files that are downloaded via the
internet.
• Labeling the files you have transferred with the
names of the song, artist, album, et cetera,
commonly called “tagging”. (Downloaded files
will normally already have the “tags” included.)
• Using a music player program to organize your
music collection and play it back.
• Optionally record music selections back onto
CDs for playback in your car or other places,
commonly called “burning”.
• Optionally transfer part of your music collection
to a portable music player.
A few programs can perform all of these functions,
for example iTunes (Apple and Windows), J.River
Media Center (Windows), and Windows Media
Player (Windows). Some users will prefer to use a
combination of other specialized programs to
perform these functions.
An introductory guide to setting up your computer
is available at the Ayre website at:
www.ayre.com/usb.htm
Please note that the DX-5 DSD can play DSD-encoded
files that have been downloaded to your computer
via the “DSD over PCM” format (DoP). However
this requires that your music player software
application also supports DoP. Again, more
information is available at the Ayre website noted
above.
