Playlist Autoplay Toggle via MIDI

Soundtrack2life

Is there a way to remote start stop this autoplay button in a playlist via midi. I did not see it in the list of commands. I did see the other one song toggle it works but not a useful for me for my needs. . . .

Soundtrack2life why not just auto play the set list from the start? Or if you know the songs you want to auto play then just set them up like that when you create the list.

There is a remote command to toggle autoplay for the current song. There is no command to do that for the whole playlist. I don't see a valid use case for that.

When playing a play list made up as sets we go song into song typically. But there are times I would like to stop the auto play from doing that and a non predetermined time to talk to the audience & etc. And since I sing and play guitar there are times when I can not get to the iPad on the rack at the back of the stage and would be amazing if I could just hit a button on my foot pedal. Ideally it would be nice if I could put the "master" iPad at my position. However we are not alway on a stage and will will be on the floor. If I had a nickel for every time someone that was wasted out of their mind dancing fell into my mic stand with my iPad and it and the mic goes flying. Thus why I have older cheap used iPads. Believe me in my case it is very valid. I am open ears to another suggestion that could work to accomplish the same task!
Thanks!

For this use case, you can enable autoplay for all songs instead of the playlist. To do that enter edit mode, tap on the select all button and enable autoplay. Then you can use the remote command to disable autoplay on the current song whenever you feel like stopping.
