There is more than one way. If you have all the music in one folder, you can add that folder to the catalogue. Alternatively, you can install the Spotlight plugin for QS, then add a Spotlight Object source to the catalogue with the settings "kind:music" in order to find all the music files on your computer.
However, if you have a lot of music files, you might think twice before you add all of it to the catalogue. A large catalogue can slow down QS, and adding all your music files will increase the size very quickly. This is why the iTunes plugin uses the "Browse Albums" catalogue entry rather than directly adding all the ablums to the catalogue, for example. Also, the iTunes plugin is able automatically to allow you to find your music based on album or artist or playlist in addition to single songs, and then play all the music contained in the selected group, whereas manually adding it to the catalogue will only let you select and play one track at a time (or perhaps also a playlist, if your music software stores its playlists in accessible playlist files that you can tell it to open).
