Hi,
I have been asked to play music at a venue on Saturday and I have over 800 albums on my external hard drive (mp3 format).
The venue uses a PC hooked up to a mixing desk and they have itunes as the preferred MP3 player.
The owner of the venue uses his own music (stored internally and through an external) all set up as an itunes library.
My question is this – is it possible for me to take along my external hard drive and plug it in, create a playlist and just drag the mp3’s from the external as and when required onto the playlist without problems?
I hope this makes sense!
Cheers,
Al
