Now you’re ready to build the playlist that will define the order in which Music Segments will play.

One way the Wwise playlist system differs from those found in most music library applications is that with Wwise there’s the addition of something called Groups, which are found within a Music Playlist Container. Think of a Group kind of like a playlist within a playlist. In a music library application you could have an acoustic music playlist and within that you could have separate groups to distinguish between fast tempo and slow tempo songs. Imagine being able to play your acoustic music in a way where the slow music group plays through all of its songs first, followed by all of the songs from the fast group. Or, how about the option of setting it up so that it plays a randomly selected song from the slow group, followed by a randomly selected song from the fast group? This is just the beginning of how flexible the Wwise playlist system can be.

To configure the Explore music for Cube, you’ll first create a simple playlist, but note that every Music Playlist Container contains at least one Group, which will already be present in a Music Playlist Container by default.
