Note: MB STUDIO will try to apply this rules. If unsuccessful (as happens when you apply too high distances and your song database is limited or poorly stocked) you'll see a timeout error and the song appears with a yellow warning triangle.

Allow random refrain
It allows the airing of a short piece of track to use with the event REFRAIN. It has effect only on the songs without REFRAIN IN and REFRAIN OUT cue points.

Outro
Value Outro is used with Voice Outro and Voice Track. It has effect only on the songs that was not marked with OUTRO cue point.
If left to "Automatically" Outro is calculated automatically by MB STUDIO.

Voice track always plays starting from the outro point
This flag only takes effect if the song has an OUTRO point and is followed by a Voice track. If the flag is active, the voice track starts playing from the OUTRO point of the song, if the flag is off MB STUDIO dynamically calculates the point at which it starts playing based on the duration of the Voice Trak and any INTRO point of the subsequent file to the voice track. If, however, the song is followed by a Voice Outro it always starts playing at the OUTRO point of the song regardless of how this flag is set.
