Music Tab
Listening To Music
There are two simple steps involved to playback music from the MAX server's music library:
1. Select a playback zone - If you have multiple playback zones for audio, you should first select
which zone(s) you want your music to played in. See the Playback Zone Selection section
(below) for details.
2. Select music for playback - Once you have specified the zone(s) that you want to play your
music in, you can select the music you want to play.
Use the Search functions to select an individual track, an entire CD or a custom playlist for
playback. See the Selecting and Playing Back Music section (below) for details.
Playback Zone Selection
Before you begin selecting music for playback, you should first select the desired output Zone. This
selection determines which of the available audio outputs will broadcast the music you select. The
number of Zones available to select from depends on the amount of audio outputs that exist in your
MAX system. Click the down-arrow next to the Zone field (FIG. 9), and select the desired output
zone.

Selecting and Playing Back Music
There are several different approaches to playing back music from the music library on the MAX
server. You can select to play an entire CD, an individual track from any CD, or you can load a
custom playlist containing any number of tracks from any CDs in the collection.
The first step in playing back music is to select the CD, track or playlist that you want to play back.
Use the Search For field at the top of the Music tab to perform a search, and once you have located
and selected the desired CD or track(s), use the Transport Control Bar to initiate and control
playback, as described in the following sections.
