Lesson Summary
Learn about two common hard drive folder structures for bulk uploads to DISCO: traditional and optimized.
Traditional Structure:
- Complex folder system with multiple layers (artists, albums, versions, file formats).
- Results in cluttered playlists without unique names like WAV, AIFF, MP3 etc.
Optimized Structure:
- Simplifies organization by incorporating the artist's name into album folders.
- Consolidates all relevant files into a single folder.
- Focuses on AIFF as the primary file format
Automatic Transcoding:
- Automatically converts AIFF files to MP3s for efficient streaming.
- Transfers metadata automatically, negating the need for separate WAV and MP3 uploads.
Benefits of Optimized Structure:
- Results in a cleaner, more organized system.
- Eases management and access to files.
- Ensures a streamlined process for bulk uploads.
