Sorry for asking so many questions, but my needs for my homestudio were very different from those for the local radio station I work at. Currently we are investigating if mAirlist could be something for us.
In our current playout system, we have a cartwall aswell. In this cartwall, it is possible to activate a jingle on the cartwall for buttonstart. This means: clicking on the jingle does not immediately play the jingle, but puts the jingle under the start button of our mixer (D&R Axum on a Velleman kit). When pressed the start button, the jingle starts playing. Is there such a function in mAirlist too?
sorry for revitalizing this old thread, but what Riccardo has asked for is exactly the function I am looking for, too. This behaviour reflects the functionality of the On-Air-Assist’s jingle buttons in d’accord Broadcating Suite and is the only reasonable way to operate a cartwall via Faderstart.
Handling would be like such: First click on the Element (or pressing the appropriate button on the keyboard once) –-> element colour changes to red (or else) –-> element is armed. Opening the fader starts playout. Second click (or button pressed) on the armed element starts playout as well. If a console with motor fader were used, the second click would open the respective fader.
Opening the fader without having activated an element before –-> nothing happens. It could be considered that in this condition an element would be played out on the first click/button.
This treat is a year old now, a year ago I liked the idee but I use a even better solution now.
I made 3 jingle player’s the all have a little playlist just pull the jingle in the cart and then you can fire it whit the button.
And there are more options say you have a caller and he/she can pick song a or b. You placed the songs a and b in cart 1 and 2 after the choose you hit 1or 2
Thank you, Henk, for your answer, but I do not quite see what the age of the thread has to do with the problem itself. If you have found a workaround that suits your needs since, fine. For my part, it doesn‘t. So I should still appreciate some functionality like described above.
The only thing that age has to do I am not waiting more as a year that it maybe will added in mairlist.
My thought is if Torben would think he could make some money it was already implanted.
Now, that we have those much appreciated [tt]CARTWALL n SELECTED[/tt]-Commands (thank you!!), is there (or will there be) a skin.ini-setting like [tt]SelectedPlayerColor[/tt], too?
