A method for processing digital audio data is presented. A control signal for a CD-changer unit is received and interpreted by a digital audio unit that stores digital audio data/files and that determines a CD-changer unit operation that would be performed by the CD-changer unit in response to the CD-changer unit receiving the control signal. The digital audio unit then emulates the CD-changer unit operation. The CD-changer unit to be emulated by the digital audio unit can be selected. The digital audio data stored by the digital audio unit can be organized as virtual CD-ROMs. By emulating the operations of multiple types of CD-changer units, a single digital audio unit can be inserted in many different digital audio systems, thereby extending the functionality of a digital audio system to include storage of softcopy digital audio files that may be accessed through controls and commands for a CD-changer unit.

A program storage device readable by a machine, tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by the machine to perform methods steps for executing a data processing application, said method steps comprising: receiving a first plurality of user input signals at an input circuit; translating the first plurality of user input signals to a first plurality of translated data values; storing the first plurality of translated data values in a first portion of the memory having a predetermined storage space; and modifying a presentation of an indicator in response to a remaining portion of the predetermined storage space of the memory. 19. The method of claim 18, further comprising the step of: initializing the indicator to be displayed on a display device prior to performing the data processing application. 20. The method of claim 18, wherein a step of modifying the presentation of the indicator, further comprises the step of: modifying a visual appearance of the indicator on the display device in response to the remaining portion of the predetermined storage space of the memory. 21. The method of claim 18, wherein a step of modifying the presentation of the indicator, further comprises the step of: modifying an audio presentation of the indicator on the display device in response to the remaining portion of the predetermined storage space of the memory. 22. The method of claim 18, further comprising the steps of: receiving a commit input at the input circuit; and enabling the memory to make the first portion of the memory available for storing a second plurality of translated data values. 23. The method of claim
