Removing a Directory from the Search Database

If you move or change your collection of audio files, you can remove a folder from the
Search database. Removing unneeded folders from the database can shorten search
times and eliminate extraneous results.

To remove a folder from the Search database

1

Click the Setup button at the top of the Search tab.

2

In the Setup dialog, select the directory you want to remove, then click the Remove
Directory button.

Click the Remove
Directory button
to remove the
selected directory.

3

Click Done to return to the Search tab.

Once you have added the folders containing your audio files to the Search database and
indexed them, you can use Search to find the files. In both Column view and Button view,
the audio files that match the search criteria appear in the Search Results area in
alphabetical order. You can preview files in the File list and drag them to the Timeline.
You can also add a folder to your Favorites from the Search tab.
