Using the Playlist 
After you create regions, you can arrange them in the Playlist. Unlike the Regions List, which displays its contents in alphabetical or 
chronological order, the Playlist displays and plays its regions in a user-specified arrangement. In addition, you can rearrange and 
audition regions endlessly in the Playlist without performing a destructive edit when you save the file. 
As with the Regions List, you can save the Playlist information as metadata in most file types. You also have the option of saving the 
Playlist to an external Playlist file. 
Displaying the Playlist 
1.  
Open the Voiceover.pca file. This file is located in the same folder as the application. 
2.  
From the View menu, choose Metadata, and then choose Regions List from the submenu (or press Ctrl+Alt+M, 0). The Regions List 
window for Voiceover.pca appears. 
3.  
From the View menu, choose Metadata, and then choose Playlist from the submenu (or press Ctrl+Alt+M, 1). The Playlist window 
for Voiceover.pca appears. 
Notice that the file contains regions, but the Playlist is empty. You must add regions to the Playlist before arranging them. 
Understanding the Playlist display 
When you add a region to the Playlist, its appearance is similar to its appearance in the Regions List, with the exception of the Count 
(Cnt)
 column. Located to the left of the Name column, the Count (Cnt) column displays the number of times the corresponding region 
plays before the Playlist proceeds to the next region. 
Adding regions to the Playlist 
You can add regions from the Regions List to the Playlist using commands or drag-and-drop. You can also add regions to the Playlist 
directly from the data window. 
Adding regions to the Playlist using commands 
1.  
Select a region in the Regions List. 
2.  
From the Edit menu, choose Playlist/Cutlist, and choose Add from the submenu (or right-click a region in the Regions List window 
and choose Add to Playlist from the shortcut menu). The region is added to the Playlist. 
Adding regions to the Playlist using drag-and-drop 
1.  
Select a region in the Regions List. 
2.  
Drag the region into the Playlist. 
3.  
Release the mouse button.
