Step 3: If ripping the timecode off the SSL disc using your computer, select your favorite Ripping Software (ie. Itunes, AudioGrabber, DBPowerampetc) to rip the SSL Timecode of Track 1 only to MP3 or WAV format. If you use mp3, name your file SSL Timecode for the key ID3 tag fields, this will make it easier to find when searching for the file in the player.

The player will automatically create a full database* on the Thumb Drive or External HDD when connected for the first time.
(*If unit does not create a database automatically, you can create a database or update your database using the included Denon DJ Music Manager Software app. or this can be done within the player itself by selecting the UTIL mode > Database Edit (see player instructions if required) When the database is completed, EXIT the UTIL mode.
