# go to your Music folder, then go into kJams/kJams Library/Venues
# go to the File menu and pick "Venues->Load Singer from other Venue"
# go to the folder with the name of the Venue where the singer originally was added
# you will be shown the "File Select" dialog, where you can pick what venue the singer is coming from
# find the singer in the "Singers" folder inside the Venue folder
# go inside the venue you want
# select that singer folder
# inside that folder, go inside the "Singers" folder
# make an alias (shortcut)
# you can now see the list of singers from the other venue
## Mac: in the File menu pick "Make Alias"
# select one or more singers from the other venue
## Windows: in the File menu pick "Create Shortcut"
# click "Choose"
# drag the alias into the venue you also want the singer to show up in
# run kJams


For example, if Dave shows up at Venue A, and also frequents Venue B, you can make an alias to Dave from Venue A, and place it in the Venue B folder. You can rename the alias so it does not collide with someone already at Venue B. When a singer modifies their favorites, history or "Tonight" list from the alias, it actually modifies the original, so when they go back to Venue A, all their changes show up there too.
That's it!  The singer(s) you picked will now be available at the first venue!

A venue is a location that has it's own set of Singers. Mobile KJ's, when arriving at a particular venue, can simply switch kJams to that venue, and all the singers that frequent it will then be available. In addition, Singers can be moved or aliased between venues using the Finder.

Venue management is done in the File menu.

To switch to a venue without having to confirm the choice, hold the Mac: Command / Win: Control key down when picking the venue.

  5. inside that folder, go inside the "Singers" folder
  6. you can now see the list of singers from the other venue
