Session Playlist
The Session Playlist is an automatic Playlist that keeps track of every song you’ve pl ayed since you launched Torq. This
is handy when you need to see if you’ve played a song already, or if you need to reference a list of what you pl ayed at a
previous gig.
An empty Session P laylist is created each time you launch Torq. It is named “Session Playlist YY-MM -DD” where YY-MM-
DD represents the year, month, and day of the Pl aylist, respectively. Each so ng you load into a Deck will automatically be
added to the bottom of the S ession Playlist.
Note: If a Playlist alread y exists with the current date, a numbe r will be appended to differentiat e it.
Note: Torq will only store Session Playlists for the last 30 days. Any Session Playlist s that are older than 30 days will be automatically
deleted in order to keep your hard drive fro m becoming overpopulated with Playli sts.
< Rename the Session Playlist
If you nd that you’d like to permanently keep a Session Playlist, all you have to do is re name it. Once renamed, the
Playlist will be moved from the pool of Se ssion Playlists and be kept with your normal Playl ists. To do this:
1. Right-click (CTRL-click on Mac) on the Sess ion Playlist and choose “Rename” from the pop- up menu.
2. Type in a new name for the Playlist and press Enter.
3. The Playlist will be saved. If you renamed the current Session Playlist, a new Session Playlist will be created
that will track all songs pl ayed from that point onward.
