contain up to 8 media elements. Figure 2-19 shows the Playlist Editor. The user can add or delete
media files (.wav or .evl) as shown in Figure 2-20. . Once saved, a playlist file (.ekp) is created.
In order to use the playlist, the user must load the playlist file (.ekp) AND the corresponding media onto
the same drive of the device. The user can then use either Overture or the front control panel to call
the playlist to air.

For the playlist to work properly, the files within the playlist MUST also be on
the device. The user MUST transfer these files to the device.
