BROWSER/DATABASE

A DJ’s most important asset, beyond the gear he uses, is his collection of music. Without 
a wealth of top-notch tracks in his arsenal, a DJ is not equipped to dominate a dance 
floor. Anyone who has been DJing for even a short while will have amassed a decent 
collection of songs, and finding those songs quickly is the job of Torq’s Browser and 
Database.

The Browser is very similar to the navigation methods employed by your computer’s 
operating system. The Browser will allow you to explore the contents of all your 
hard drives (internal and external), connected MP3 players (such as iPods), and audio 
CDs. You can then add music folders to the Torq Database in order to search for 
songs using keywords or sorting techniques, which makes finding your music much 
easier than thumbing through CD wallets or crates of vinyl. Torq also supports the 
building of playlists which will allow you to pre-select a series of songs to use in a later 
performance—and Torq will even document all of the songs you play in a set for later 
review (the Session Playlist).

This section will show you how to navigate your hard drive(s) using the Torq Browser, 
and how to add folders containing music files to the Database. It will also explain how to 
search for particular songs, how to organize songs by categories for easier viewing, and 
how to manage playlists.

Browser Pane

The Browser pane is located on the 

bottom left of the Torq interface. It 

allows you to navigate drives, folders, 
and playlists through an easy-to-use file 

structure.

The Browser contains three standard 
headings: Database, Playlists, and your 
local Music folder (called “Music” on 
Mac and “My Music” on PC) which 
are shown at the top of the Browser 
pane. The Browser will also contain a 
listing of each drive connected to your 
system—those drives will be listed by their names (for example, “C:” or “Macintosh 
HD”). Finally, all connected media players will have an entry along with any 

inserted CDs.

Navigation in the Browser follows a few simple rules:

1.   To view any songs contained in a folder, click on the folder’s name. If the folder 

contains music files, those files will be displayed in the File List to the right 
of the Browser pane. If Torq cannot identify any playable music files in the 
selected folder, the list will be blank.

2.   To view any sub-folders, click the plus sign (+) next to a folder. A list will 

appear below the parent folder showing all available sub-folders. To close this 
list, click the (–) in front of the parent folder.
