rotation robustness request

thread bump, squeaky wheel, rotation robustness request (duets, groups, "song on disc", 2-fers, skippy singer) I'm still managing the rotation with slips -- it's more flexible, but I miss out on some Pro features. A few singers hang out all night, but choose to sing approx. every-other rotation. It ...

jfbiii seems like he's got a good gig. I agree with what was said, with the addition of: some venues are mostly country, some are mostly hip-hop & rap, some are mostly 50s 60s 70s karaoke venues are kinda like radio stations, but more flexible. You'll get some variety mixed in with the main genres f...

sweet!

Excellent plans for an already great app!

One feature I didn't see mentioned: TWO-FER. When the rotation only has a few singers, I like to give the singers the option of doing 2 songs back-to-back. So far, nobody has turned me down.

skip singer-smoking

Situation: singer is outside smoking, or in the bathroom, etc. I just want to skip them and come back to them in 4-8 minutes, but I do NOT want to move them in the rotation. This is the number one reason why I handle the rotation with slips and search / play songs one at a time (singers names are NO...

video mirroring

maybe the video adapter was loose on the notebook

maybe your PRAM or SMC needs to be reset. (depends if you have an Intel processor or PowerPC)

check www.apple.com/support and search for "reset smc" or PRAM

darn. They have some good song titles, and the ones I've heard sounded great

copy protection... Jerks.

I'll let them know I was gonna buy many (all?) of their songs. Now it will be none.

Except I haven't found their website.

sound quality from Super CDG

The one time I ripped from a SCDG the sound came out as 128 kbps ...great for earbuds, less-than-ideal for a professional sound system doing the math, 1000 songs on 4.7 GB "CD" (actually a DVD) works out to 4.7 MB per song. Subtract 1.0 MB for the graphics portion, and you end up with 3.7 MB for the...

As always, a great application! When one reads the documentation makes it even better! I noticed since adding the Publisher column to the Library, a search sometimes (not every time) takes about 10 seconds (2 Ghz Intel core 2 duo, 2500 songs) and I get a task "filtering, please wait". 10 seconds is ...

publisher field column

I have several discs that have songs from more than one publisher. I was changing the letters in the Album field to reflect this, but this is not a great work-around. For one thing, you can't search on Album:### (gotta start with letters) Then I found the Publisher field / column. Sounds just like w...

ASK has some great music, but...

I was getting ready to buy some of these. But I definitely don't want to support DRM copy protection

Maybe I can send a signal and just by the non-DRM discs.

Brenden, can you supply a list of good and bad discs from ASK?
