It will be readible by most synths except for sapi5 so I do use underscores for that reason.

Re: Writing file names:
High Albert, No, you can edit those out. Sometimes, I find MP3 and other audio files on the net where the name of the song and artist are running together. So just to make it look neat, I rename the files but with spaces between all of the words accept the file extension. Hope this helps.

Re: Writing file names:
Well i usually see artist and title separated by dashes, I know that various pieces of software use the dashes as delimiters to establish where one feeld starts and another feeld ends. For example, OTS DJ will use this format to take note of the title and artist of a particular track when playing it so that the correct information can be displayed to those who are taking your Internet radio stream. Itunes uses this way of file naming to import the correct song information into its database.
