With this function, like with "Wish", Audials searches and saves automatically songs for you.
Choose your favorite bands and artists, then choose the desired number of results and as soon as you go on "Create collection...", you can choose more settings: as for "Format and versions", "Sources and settings" or "Processing".
1. Open Audials and switch to the "Music" menu item.
2. Open the "Bot" tab.
3. Enter artists or radio stations you find interesting. Choose how many songs Audials should record. The Bot can record from 100 to 5000 songs. With the slide switches, you can also define whether the Bot should search for further artists and whether the found artists should be rather well-known or be fitting to your style.
4. Click on "Create collection". In the window that will be opened, you will be able to define further settings, like:
"Format and versions": Should the Bot search for audio files or video files?
"Sources and settings": Should the Bot record from the radio or music websites, or both?
"Processing": With which speed should the Bot record?
The more settings you set, the more suitable results you get.
As soon as a song is found, it appears automatically in the Player, in the current playlist. The search can be stopped at any time, and a "New job" can be started.

It can be a little daunting, but it does a pretty good job. What I would like is a way to mark or filter out specific ways or places. That is, some are so horrible, they aren't worth the space on the drive, but they come up every time I put it on a wish list. I'd rather skip those places for the song.
Maybe a sample? Where I can check "Yep, that's that, one".
Otherwise, super great feature! It is like you were listening to my thoughts, or actually use the software yourselves.
After several weeks of trying to get music bot to work I wonder if you can help me. For example I submit "Rogers & Hammerstein" to search for music but in the search preview I just get lists with for example " Queen Michael Jackson The Who David Bowie etc. I cannot delete these from the list and when I try to create a new collection the same lists appear each time. How do I get rid of the preview list and create my own?
