You can create up to 20 liners (each including from 1 up to 3 items). Each liners should have a Title. After setting up a liner, you can assign it to a break using MB SPOT. Simply create a new break or select an existing break anche click to Proprerty and assign a Liner. You can also select multiple breaks and click Poperties and assign the liner at once. To insert a track, simply double click the item line. A liner can also be assigned to song requestes (MUSICLINE) and to prelisten windows in order to test the mix points. Liners are especially important when you need to split commercials for different areas, because you can send the START SPLIT signal in the opening jingle and the STOP SPLIT signal in the closing jingle of the liner; right click the item and choose Properties to set the flags or the bits
