<Ignore Field

Torq offers another method for refi ning your searches by means of the Ignore fi eld. Here, you’ll enter terms that you want Torq to omit from the search results. The Ignore command will only be applied to the currently selected categories (explained above).

To omit terms from the search results:

1.Click to put a cursor in the Ignore Field.

2.Type in the term you would like to fi lter out of the search.

3.Torq will display only the songs that contain the information required in the Search fi eld while omitting the songs that fi t the criteria of the Ignore fi eld.

Again, using the example above, entering the term “Lover” into the Ignore fi eld will return the following list:

Artist*	Song	Album
Deee-Lite	Power of Love	World Clique
Jennifer Love Hewitt	Can’t Stand in the Way of Love	Let’s Go Bang

You’ll see that, as a result, “I’d Rather Be Your Lover” has been removed from the list.

*Note: Reference to artists and bands is for informational purposes only and does not imply an endorsement or sponsorship of Torq by such artists or bands.

<Reset Button

When you are done with your search and are ready to begin a new one, press the Reset button. This will clear the Search and Ignore fi elds as well as deselect any categories that had been previously selected.

Playlists

While many DJs will perform “off-the-cuff” without any previous rehearsal or forethought, other DJs will “pre-program” their sets, either due to the complexity of the set or simply as a method for remembering vital songs (this can be helpful for wedding or party DJs who take requests).

Torq features Playlists to help you organize and store lists of songs. You can create and manage multiple Playlists, each with as many songs as you like. Each Playlist can then be edited by adding or deleting tracks, or by rearranging their order within the Playlist.
