Summarizing the Information in XML Lists

Each list includes information about all audio files from one instrument with a 
specific setting that has been processed with an audio effect in a specific setting. 
Each list contains a node with information about the audio effect and N additional 
nodes with information about the audio files. 
The information is stored in child nodes, whose node names are self-explanatory. 
As with the audio files, the relevant information is encoded in the filenames of the XML file.

Encoding Scheme for Lists

A-C - Instrument information, as with the audio files
D-F - Not assigned, always 0
G-I - Effect information, as with the audio files
K   - Identification number, three digits, sequential with leading zeros

Example
B11-00000-3311-013
ABC-DDEEF-GHHI-KKK
--> A-C: Guitar, Schecter, finger plucking
    D-F: Not significant
    G-I: Modulation effect, Chorus, 1st setting
    K  : Identification number
