Does anyone with Windows XP know how to download your own tracks into this app? It's a little DJ type app. It's really cool. A sample track comes with the app; the link is already provided in the url box so you can easily download it. This app was created by a Japanese guy so his website is in Japanese. He did try to help me understand how to upload my own music, but I still can't get it to work. Can anyone else help me if you know how to do it? This is what he told me to do; I copied our conversation from his website and pasted it here:

How do I download my own wav. files since I don't have a Mac computer. I have Windows XP and I've tried uploading wav. files onto a web sharing website like mediafire and typing the file url into the application but it doesn't work. I've also tried downloading wav. files from wav. websites by entering the urls into the application and that doesn't work either. Please help me. I want to add my own tracks to the application so I can enjoy this great app even more.

Install apache HTTP server in your PC.
Update Touch the Wave to version 0.5.

The folder is made in htdocs of the apache program and the audio file is put.
Example "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\music\"

Connect PC with iPhone on the same Wi-Fi network.

Write URL on the download screen of Touch the Wave.
Example "http://yourIPAddress/music/"

Download is begun when start button touching
.

Ok, so I installed apache HTTP server 2.2, but I'm still a little lost on what to do next. Do I just put the music file in that folder that you gave an example of? I tried putting the URL into Touch The Wave but a message always pops up saying 'error can't find host.'

Rewrite "YourIPAddress" in IP Address of your PC.

Still, is it useless?Perhaps, apache is not starting.
Restart your PC. Open apache monitor, and click start button. If it accesses "http://yourIPAddress/music/" by a web browser of your PC, and the list of the
audio file is displayed, it is OK.

It works on my PC. The audio file displays on my PC but when I type the url into Touch The Wave on my iPod, it still says 'cannot find host.' I guess it's not going to work. Thanks for your help anyway.

Was IP Address examined by the command prompt? "127.0.0.1" and "localhost" are mistakes. IP address that starts by "192." is correct.

If someone could help, I would greatly appreciate it because this app would be so much better with my own tracks in it.
 
Apache is a web server that will host your files.

Go to run and type "cmd"

Then type "ipconfig /all" and one of the numbers shown will be 192.168.x.x NOT 192.168.x.0

Put the music where he said and go to "192.168.x.x/music" where x is what you saw before

After all this those complaints about no phisical keyboard make sence

Thank you so much! I finally got it to work! You explained it so much better. Thank you!!!
