Use the filter tabs to narrow results by type, such as Music or Ambient Track, or type in the search field to find a specific track.

Press the play button beside a track to preview it. When you find the track you want, click the plus button beside it to add it to your soundboard.

Step 3: Play the track for the table

Return to the Soundboard panel. The track you added now appears under Personal Sounds.

Click the track name to play it for everyone at the table.

Step 4: Open the Audio Manager for playlists and ambient effects

Click Audio in the tray to open the Audio Manager.

The Active Playlist section sets a continuous ambient bed. Click Choose Playlist to select one.

The Ambient Effects section holds one-shot sounds. Use Add Audio or Browse Library to add sounds to that section.
