Keep Track is a music organiser and player application, which gives you complete control of your music collection. When first running the program, you can search and add all the music on your computer into a database.
Tracks are organised into two lists: artists are displayed on the left and when clicked on, the artist's tracks appear on the right.
You can associate pictures with the artists and tracks, which can be embedded into the database. You can also embed tracks for easy storage and distribution. Tracks can be grouped together in batches too so that you can store tracks together in albums, as favourites, playlists, etc. Full track information can be stored within the database too, including genre, date, lyrics and notes.
Tracks can be copied by the program to the Windows "CD burning" folder ready for burning to a CD. They can also be exported as shortcuts so that you can use them in games, e.g. Grand Theft Auto III (onwards) & The Sims.
You will be able to play the tracks by clicking on them, sequentially or randomly depending on the settings you configure.
Keep Track Statistics shows how many times you have played a track and when it was last played - for all tracks in all databases. A full HTML (web page) report can be generated showing all details of your database - including pictures and Keep Track Statistics. Alter the look of Keep Track by changing the font, size and colour of text and the background image.
Here are some key features of "Keep Track":
· Search for music (MP3 and WMA files) on your hard drive to add to your database
· Powerful search to find Tracks in the database
· Tracks can be grouped together in batches

· Export playlists to M3U format
· Keep Track databases with embedded music can be distributed easily as one file
Limitations:
· You can only save up to 25 Artists, and each Artist can only have up to 3 Tracks

What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· It is now possible to add tracks to the Search window while Keep Track plays through them (either randomly or consecutively). This is useful if you were playing through a play list for a party, for example, and someone made a request to play a particular track - the track could then be added without affecting the playing of the tracks.
· A playing track now fades out when another is selected and the new track is started over the fade out. Also when one track finishes, the next starts over the very end of the previous one. Therefore Keep Track is now a lot better for public performances.
· When opening a database, you are now presented with a window from where you can select a batch (play list) to play. I added this as it is probably what most users would want to do most of the time.
· You can now double-click on a track in Keep Track Statistics to play it
· Sometimes a play list stopped without finishing after a track finished - this bug has been fixed
