Playlists
While many DJs will perform “off-the -cuff” without any previous rehearsal or forethought, other D Js will “pre-program”
their sets, e ither due to the comp lexity of the set or simply as a method for remembering vital so ngs (this can be helpful
for wedding or party DJs w ho take requests).
Torq features Playlists to help you organize and store lists of songs. You can create and manage multiple Playlis ts, each with
as many songs as you like. Each Playlist can then be edited by adding or deleting track s, or by rearranging their order within
the Playlist.
