Hoggins, I would leave the numbering as is so you can determine the source of the tracks, and their veracity.
In my experience presenters are not all that fussy about quality. At one of my stations presenters routinely plug their phones into the desk so they can play tracks they have stored there. Faced with a "which one do I keep?" decision, knowing whence they came helps the process. Hacking a global renumber is possible, but where are you at the end of the process? regards Robert On Fri, Dec 23, 2011 at 5:42 AM, Hoggins! <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > > We have two main groups for our music.
