Hello!I am new to sam broadcaster and i am looking for a very simple pal script. I have a category named "Tracks" and a category named "Ads". What i want to do: Play from cat "Tracks" 10 songs with "the least played artist rule" and then 1 ad from cat "Ads". Then,play another 10 songs with "the least played artist rule" and then 1 ad from cat "Ads". and repeat all the time this. Nothing else like volume,decks,song info....Only this simple loop. Have in mind that i have the option "keep 5 songs in the queue" because with 0 songs in the queue after some time i get an error like that: " there is no song in the queue an after 20 tries" it stops autodj an turn to queue

Great to meet you guys. I'm a middle-aged dude that just started two shows; Truth on Tap and Caps on Tap. I've got just a few questions; I've done about 60 episodes, most using Sam Broadcaster 4.9.1 (seemed to work better than the other versions for me). 1. I would like to be able to taper/fade the end of some of my sound effects. I've got one that is about 10 seconds long that is a station ID, and oddly, I produced it in Audacity WITH a natural fade, but SAM took out the fade and ends it abruptly. Crossfading and gap killer settings don't seem to be helping. 2. Because I'm using a wireless connection to DSL (I know, I'm supposed to be hardwired into the router AND Dsl is too slow anyway) I need to be very careful about what data rate/format I select. Whenever I use 128kbps (I use Spreaker), it works well but I get some crackling/popping/gaps. I do much better when I go over to AAC and set it at 80kpbs. And considering it's a talk show with only a few songs here and there, that seems to be ok; is there a better setting? 3. I've had terrible luck with DSP plugins OR ACG. StereoTool and associated ones tend to give me skipping/gaps, so I end up turning everything off; the ACG stuff built into SAM, the DSP plugins, even Equalizers. While that helps keep audio smooth, my station does not sounds professional and I'd like to change that. Thank you in advance for help!
