Generate Tapestry Playlist
From the Playlist Management Panel, you can generate a playlist automatically—based on almost any criteria you can
think of—by using the Create Tapestry Playlist feature. This exciting capabilities utilizes extensive musical meta-data
that is retrieved automatically by the system and provides a unique, fun and personalized method to quickly create
playlists based on styles, moods, themes and instrumentation.
When you select CREATE TAPESTRY PLAYLIST, you will be presented with a
series of screens organized by tabs at the top of the screen that allow you
to make detailed selections that describe the kind of playlist the system
will automatically generate from your music collection.
The first three tabs Styles, Themes and Tones all
operate in the same way. Using the “Top Level”
selection, you may tap either on the items name like
“Rock” which will allow you to see the “2
nd Level”
selections and make individual selections. If you tap
in the “Top Level” check box circle, you will not only
see the “2
nd Level” selections but they will ALL be
selected by default. Experiment with the different
selections options and use the Clear All Selections
button to Reset or Start your selections over again.
Use the “Real-Time Preview” to see what types of
tracks your selections are choosing. You can use
any combination of selections in the Styles, Themes
and Tones tabs. You may also SAVE or PLAY the playlist at
anytime by pressing the appropriate buttons.
Use the Playlist Length options on the SETTINGS tab to control
the number of tracks or playlist duration of your newly created
playlist. NOTE: This setting also controls how may tracks the
“Play Similar” feature of the Now Playing area uses.
You can use the duration options to quickly create a playlist
that will fit exactly on a CD using the Burn CD features of the
system.
Finalize your playlist using the PREVIEW tab to see the playlist
to be generated. You can use the REFRESH button on this page to re-generate the playlist using the same selections.
You can also SAVE your selections as a Preset which can be recalled from the presets tab and used in the future. In this
way, you can quickly generate a fresh new playlist using your own personalized attributes. For example you can save a
preset based on “Happy, Upbeat, Driving Jazz” for those long drives in your car.
