Audio continuing on the verses of song
From the EW Forums Archive.
"If the song has been edited previously and an audio file was added to it, it could be messed up. Edit the song in the database and click on each slide and make sure there is not an audio file attached to any slide in the song. Then you can go to the Master tab and add your audio file. Make sure the audio file is set as a background and not a foreground. If it's set as a foreground element, it will restart on each slide. Also, when set as a background so that it will play across slides, you won't have any player controls for it. You will only have player controls for an audio file when it's set as a foreground element.
Alternatively, you can edit your song in the schedule (the one that's giving you issues) and open the Inspector and select the audio file on each slide and make sure they are all set as a background. I'm guessing since it's restarting on the third slide, it's set as a foreground element on that slide, so it starts at the beginning"
Thanks very much for your reply. It works out beautifull. Just a pity There are no controls. It would be handy to be able to stop the music halfway if the preacher decides that the 3rd verse needs to be skipped.....;-)

I know how to connect a mp3 sound file to a song. However every verse of the song/chorus is a separate slide and therefore when making the next verse/chorus live the audio starts al over again . The mp3 file is written as such to cover the complete song.
Is there a way of making the next verse live but the music continuing?
I have attached a testfile. The file is from version 6 which we still use. We are in the in the progress to go to version 7.
Rgrds,
