Setting Soundtrack Offset Times

Each of the tracks that you add to your Soundtrack List, as well as your
Slide Sounds, has an Offset option. This option is used when you don’t
want a particular song or effect to play right as another one ends.

An Offset is the amount of time (in seconds) that ProShow will wait before
playing a song or effect. The description says “from previous track”, but for
the first track, this means "from the start of the show".

For example, if you set the Offset of the first track in your show to 5
seconds, the music won't play until 5 seconds of your show has elapsed.

Offset is most valuable when you want some gaps in your audio. There are
times when a break from the end of one track to another can be used to
great effect in your show. Adding some time to the Offset of the following
track will accomplish this.
