Playlists allow you to curate shows and schedule them on your station calendar. You can form playlists from either tracks or tags, they will always play in the order you add them. To get started head to Playlists in the dashboard sidebar then add the name of your new playlist and choose a colour. Next click 'ADD'.

Creating a playlist.

The Playlist editor will then open. On the left side of the dashboard, you will see your tracks and tags. The last 50 tracks uploaded can be found (latest first) under Recently Added. If you are looking for a specific track use the search box at the top of the screen.

New playlist.

To add items to a playlist simply drag them over from left to right. If you are on a touchscreen device you may find it easier tapping the + button next to each item. Once items have been added you can re-order them by clicking and dragging on the right-hand list. As you add tracks the playlist duration will increase giving you a rough estimate of your playlist run time. If you use tags in the playlist we cannot show an accurate runtime as we are unable to determine the length of the tracks that would air.

Once the playlist is complete click the green Save Changes button in the upper right.
