Actually, the Ms Pinky Maxi Patch application's file browser is so primitive,
they suggest you use iTunes as a music library front end. So in effect, I
browse iTunes using the coverflow view, and drag and drop the file/song onto
the appropriate Maxi Patch deck.
However, it's really not intuitive to me and I'm still working out whether
regular list view, or using a file browser/Finder window is actually easier.
Merely identifying a track via cover art thumbnail doesn't trigger the same
recollection of the music as holding the vinyl/identifying the record jacket
does. For audio files, maybe it's seeing the collection of metadata on one
line, or navigating to the file location that recalls the most about a track,
without actually hearing it.

TO ADD SOMETHING, I ask WHY digital DJ softwares do not have integrated
somethiong like COVER FLOW you can find on Itunes / Ipod? Even more,
this feature should be completed by the same interface you have on Ipod
Touch / Iphone, displaying the tracklisting of the album on the "back"
of the cover once u clicked on the cover.
This feature might be pattented by Apple, but it would not be that
difficult to imitate (just look at the inner window browsing in Youtube)
and that would be the correction of the BIG defect of digital DJing that
hasnt made me switched yet.
