Playlist Template Builder

Playlist Template Builder
 
As the name suggests, the Playlist Template Builder is used to build playlist templates. A template is comprised of multiple sections in order. A section can either be a static set of items, or a set of items that fills for a period of time. A section that fills will try its best to fit the items to the time specified. For each item, PlayIt VoiceTrack will select a track that corresponds to the type of the item. It can select a track by track type (e.g. Song), a track group (as defined in Manage > Track Groups), or a specific track (as defined in Manage > Tracks). You can also select Voice Track and specify a time to insert a voice track placeholder for later recording.
