type is set correctly. Setting the file type is not usually
done by the user, but by the program that created the
file. If the file was not made on a Macintosh, it might not
be recognized as an audio file if it’s file name does not
end in the extension shown on the chart above.
Therefore, using file name extensions is recommended.
MIDI File Playback
While audio files play back on the audio system of the
computer, MIDI files in the playlist can be played either
on the computer’s audio system, or can be streamed to
an external MIDI device. The destination for the MIDI file
playback is set in the preferences. See Chapter 20,
Customizing, for more information on how to choose the
MIDI file playback destination and other MIDI options.
Playlist Selections
The song that will be played next is highlighted in yellow.
This selection may be changed by clicking another row of
the playlist, by using the up and down arrows on the
keyboard, by using the foot controller to scroll the
selection, or by typing a song name on the keyboard.
When a song starts to play, its yellow highlighting will
change to green, and the next line of the playlist will
highlight in yellow. The row that is to be played next
(the yellow row) may be changed while another song is
being played.
