6.2.14 Playlists

The “Playlists” page is where a playlist can be created, edited, hidden, selected or unselected.

Playlists are simply a collection of WAV files that can be played in order. Playlists conform to the standard

.xspf format and are stored in the “Playlists” folder on the microSD card. Please note that the location of the

track must be from the root of the microSD card. This means if the playlist is being copied from a computer,

drive letters and volume names must not be included. Playlists may include tracks in different locations on the

microSD card (not just a single folder), so a microSD card with multiple albums of music can all be played

while still having each album in its own folder.

Here is an example playlist file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<track><location>/Session-01/Session-01.Take-01.wav</location></track>

<track><location>/Session-01/Session-01.Take-02.wav</location></track>

<track><location>/Session-02/Session-02.Take-01.wav</location></track>

<track><location>/Session-02/Session-02.Take-02.wav</location></track>

</trackList>

</playlist>

Note that all of the <location> entries start with the root folder “/” and tracks from multiple sessions can be in

the same playlist. Changing the

repeat="false" to repeat="true" will cause the playlist to repeat playing until

manually stopped.

Playlists can be created from the currently selected Session on the Aurora

(n)

by pressing the Function button

until the “+” icon is highlighted, then pressing the Select button. Please note: the currently selected Session is

shown in the top left corner of the Playlists page. All of the Takes for the current Session will be added as

tracks to the playlist.

Once the playlist is created, simply pressing the Play button will start the playback of the playlist. Once each

track is finished playing, the next track will immediately start playing until the playlist is complete. While a

playlist is active, pressing the Up button will move to the next track and pressing the Down button will move

to the previous track. If playback is active when pressing either Up or Down the new track will begin playing

immediately. Playback can be stopped by pressing the Play button, and the playlist can be resumed once again

by pressing the Play button.
