RadioBOSS allows users to set up file types for particular types
of tracks. For each file type, users can specify the name,
identifier, color, crossfade parameters, and amplifying level for
playback (-20 to +20 dB).
An identifier is a word
or a sequence of characters that assigns a file to a particular
group. RadioBOSS looks for an identifier in the tag area
(artist/title) or the filename if a file has no tags. If an
identifier is found, the file is marked with the corresponding
color in the playlist. All
playback and crossfade parameters set for this file type are
applied.
For example: The first group is named “Commercial”. Its
identifier is “Commercial”, the color is set to grey, and the
amplifying level is set to +5dB. In this case, all tracks
containing the identifier "Commercial" in tags (title/artist) or
filename will be displayed grey in the playlist and played louder
than other tracks. The file will be mixed according to the
crossfade parameters configured for the “Commercial” group on the
Crossfades tab.
To set up a new file type,

1. On the top menu bar, select Settings > Preferences...

4. Enter the identifier of a file type into the Identifier field.
