Setting Intro End on Songs

Some Songs include an short instrumental period at the beginning which can be used to talk over as a DJ or to play a sweeper jingle over. Setting the Intro End at the end of this section allows Myriad Playout to automatically apply 'sweepers' and allows DJ's to easily talk 'up to the vocals'.

1. Select a Song that does not have the Intro set (lower left if Media Item on Media Wall).

2. Right-click and select Edit from the menu option.
