From the Queue window, click on the song and press Play (in the Control Panel)
to start playing. You can also
similarly load the song to any of the 10 Playlists or Write window above.
From a Playlist, you can click on the song and press Play (or double
click on the Index) to start playing.

Songs in the disc can be loaded into the Queue, Playlists or Write window
all at once. Select the window into which you wish to load all the songs. In the example below, we select the Queue.
Click on the check mark at the bottom and press the Playlist button
as shown. You can also drag & drop the selected songs into the Queue window.
7.
In the Queue, Playlists or Write window, you can adjust the size of each
field by putting your mouse (cursor) in between the fields and press &
drag to the left or right. You
can also hide a field by right clicking on the field name and unchecking the

In the Queue, Playlists, or Write window, you can also sort the songs according
to Index, Title, or Artist by pressing on the field name as shown below. Click
on the field name again to reverse the order. This can also be done below in the File
Browser to sort the songs according to Filename, Title, or Artist.

In the Queue or Playlists window, you can search for a song by Index, Title,
Artist, or Filename. Click on
the pull-down menu of Search and select the field(s) in which you wish to

12.
In the Queue, you can also input the name of the customer in the Customer
field for each song. To make this
process easier, the Add Customer function is designed to store and apply the
customer names automatically. Place
a check mark to activate the Add Customer as shown below and select a customer
name from the pull-down menu.
If your customer name is not in the selection, you can type
in the name and press the Add button to add. To delete, select the name and press the
Del button.
13.
Next add a song into the Queue from the File Browser (by drag & drop,
right click & select Playlist-Queue, or by pressing the Playlist button).
You will see that the song has been added with the customer name selected
in the Add Customer field. You can store many of your repeat customer names
in the Add Customer list and avoid typing each time of their singing.
14.
To play the songs, you have learned to load the songs into the Queue window.
But to save the song list (perhaps for some future use), you shoul
load the songs into a Playlist (any one of 1-10).
In this example, we use the Playlist 1.
Press the Save as button and it will open the Save as window as below. In
this example, we save the Playlist as “PS159.txt” and press Save.
We recommend that the songs in a CDG disc be first saved in a
Playlist. Then from the Playlist,
you can use the Search, Sort, or Preset functions to play the songs or send to
Queue which will result in less access to the disc drive and less load to your
laptop or PC. For more details,
please refer to the USER’S MANUAL.
