TCMS File Naming

I have a site where I am adding TCMS so the client can edit and upload things themselves. This is for a traditional jazz camp. There are 15 musical instrument categories and 12 songs. Each instrument gets between 1-3 MP3s and PDFs (2-6 files total x 15 โ€” so probably around 800-900 files total).

Each instrument will have their own password protected page so they can only see the files they need. (BTW, I took a look at File Depot for this, and decided the people using the site would not be able to figure out how to copy links accurately).

I have everything laid out (and there is probably an easier way to do it than what I am doing), but what I can't figure out is if there is a way to maintain the file name of a file uploaded using the admin interface so when the user downloads it the name makes sense. Right now I get the CMS ID as the file name.

If anyone cares to look, here's a sample:

Admin: https://campers.macchuck.com/admin/songs/01/

User:

The site is in the early stages of development right now, so the Alto Sax page for the first song is the only one I have working.
