    What do you guys do for file names when it comes to creating final song files, do you leave spaces or capital letters?

    Would you do, for instance:

    Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds mix 2

    LucyInTheSkyWithDiamonds_mix2

    lucy_in_the_sky_with_diamonds_mix_2

    or some other variation, and why?

    Probably something like

    LucyInTheSkyWithDiamonds_mix2

    But I just do it the way the libraries asks us to do it, it depends on the library.

    All my file names use a catalog number (easier to keep track of) and there are no spaces. I came up with a scheme to identify the type of track. I assign an alias to that number which is the name that I use for the library. I built a database years ago to keep track of all this and it’s fairly seamless. As an example:

    HR0001.0 = Hard Rock Song – Full Mix
    HR0001.1 = Hard Rock Song – DnB
    HR0001.2 = Hard Rock Song – Bed
