Case Study: Professional DJ

Jerome

The situation

Jerome is a professional DJ, who keeps thousands of music files on the PC in his studio.

The challenge

At work, Jerome needs to pull together he music files he needs—and fast. But he lso likes to browse his music collection when he’s not sure which tune to mix into his latest production.

Today, Jerome uses directories to store his files. He puts much time and effort in creating directories and storing his files accordingly. But whatever he does, his directory tree always represents one sorting scheme. If he wants to collect files with different properties across directories, he cannot do that efficiently. Desktop search engines aren’t up to the task because they only offer full text search.

Our recipe for success

liquidFOLDERS makes it easy for Jerome to keep track of all his music, something that is important to him. To save time, he keeps all his files (and additional content like album covers) in a liquidFOLDERS store.

During his work, Jerome can slice and dice his store and arrange the files it contains by any of these attributes—in real time:

When Jerome needs his most played files of last year, or all dubstep tracks which are shorter than two minutes—they are now just a few clicks away. Instead of remembering his material, Jerome can concentrate on making more awesome mixes for his audience. Why don’t you use liquidFOLDERS to find your files?
