One way is as you mentioned, create a blank musical sequence with the song(s) you wish to have playing. Then put those blank sequences into a show, and have it play after hours.There are some other programs out there that will accomplish this, but I since I don't run music after hours, I've not kept up with them.
Richard Hamilton Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 RedSea, myself and others do this with ZaraRadio. Search for the threads on ZaraRadio and see if you think you want to use it. The program is free, but worth as much as other DJ programs that cost $200 or more.

redsea300 Posted November 3, 2008 Author Posted November 3, 2008 Thanks for the advice. I am running 8 songs on a loop with Demented elf promo between each song. I just made up sequences with no animation and loaded it works great. Thanks I also added Demented Elf Promo to our home page on our website. He is the best fast and great quality!!!! Thanks again Kevin

And you can't beat a price of .... FREE !It works especially nice if you use it to play Christmas music before and after your shows since it has events to start and stop itself automatically at a time you select... or some folks (like me) use the DTMF tones to instruct it when to start.I should also mention again for people who want to use it but have Vista installed. There is no update for Vista, so you have to run it on Windows XP or 2000. I've gotten it to work on Vista during experimentation but the process was too tricky. For my LOR computer, I use XP anyway.
