Creating a Playlist

In this section, we explain how to create a new playlist for your station.

To create a playlist:

  2. Click the Create playlist link at the right-hand side of the page.

  3. Enter a title for your playlist in the Title field. This is informational only, so choose a title that is descriptive and has meaning to you.

  4. Choose a playlist type. Consult the previous section, Understanding Playlists for more information about the purpose of each playlist type.

  5. Configure the remaining settings as appropriate based on the playlist type you chose in step 4. See the next few sections for details.
