Autopilot: Need a good program to play playlists well
Background:
My old man runs a bar and wants something better than iTunes/Pandora but has no need of an in-house DJ. So he called me up.
My Idea:
I will make traktor playlists for my dad and email them. I advised this setup for now:
Laptop, Traktor LE, sound card. (They already have the sound gear) They have an ascap license already. I will share access with the bar on their iTunes account. Talking to them about a beatport account as well…
Your Ideas? They just want a variation on the playlist each week, top40 KISSFM style…
CHEERS! (Oh yeah, I live like 1500 miles away or I’d just go in for fun and spin)
Get the free virtual dj trial version, it fully functions if you only use a computer, and no controller.
Just installed it at the beachclub i work. You can put music in different folders and just copy the genres that you want to play that day/ evening in the playlist.
choose the auto mix type fade remove intro/outro and you will have a really nice free system.
You can choose shuffle and remove already played, and you will have it al covered
I’ve looked into a lot of options but this was a very nice one.
Or you can use drs 2006, it’s a radio dj station program, but i found it to much trouble with getting al the genre’s right. You can get a free trial, but on the forums they complain that the software hasn’t been updated for a long time.
