The terms appearing below have special meaning when used in conjunction with VisiTrax:
| Playlist | A playlist is a playing schedule for selected tracks residing in any arbitrary set of volumes in the library. |
| Typical uses for a playlist might include scheduling of a program for use by a DJ, or defining material to be transcribed onto a tape or CD. |
| Swiping | This is a lot like drag and drop, except you don't have to move the mouse pointer very far at all. |
| To perform a swipe action, move the mouse cursor to the right or left a short distance while holding down the left mouse button, then release the button, all while remaining within the currently-highlighted line. |
| Track | A track is any discrete selection, song, tune, cut, video, etc. VisiTrax is designed to instantly locate individual tracks in your music library, regardless of their associated media. |
| At a minimum, each track has a defined artist name, title, and category (e.g. Classical, Folk Music, Rock, or any other description you might wish to use). Optionally, a track can have an index number, playing time, year, etc. File names can be specified for computer-based tracks (e.g. MIDI or WAV files). |
| Volume | A volume is any logical grouping of tracks sharing a common container, such as an album, tape, compact disc, box or tray, etc. |
| At a minimum, each volume has attributes of artist, title, and media format (e.g. 33 RPM Album, Compact Disc, DVD, or any other description you might wish to use). For computer-based tracks, such as MIDI and WAV files, a single directory pathname can be specified for a given volume. |
