What does kJams Pro do today?
It does everything that kJams does, plus:
- Venues: A venue is a location that has it's own set of singers and rotation. Singers can be moved or aliased between venues using the Finder. 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.
- Singers: Each singer get's their own "Tonight" playlist, as well as "Favorites" and "History". They can change the pitch for any song in any of their lists (and it will always be remembered). Reorder their "Tonight" list up 'till the moment they sing. If they leave the show and come back another night, their que is still there, picking up where they left off, or they can start over.
- Rotation: The Rotation list is built from singers who are marked "here" and who have items in their "Tonight" list. You can see how many times a singer has ever sung, or how many times they've sung a particular song. Use the "KJ Rotation" list to reorder the rotation, use the "Singers" list to mark who is "here".
What features are in store for 1.0?
- Sample-based Cue'ing of next song: Instead of pausing at the start of the song file, pause at the first non-silent sample (so un-pausing instantly plays music)
- Allow singers to store their bio, picture (taken with attatched webcam, or dragged in)
- Optional timed silence or bumper music between songs. KJ has complete control over the playlist.
- split screen graphics / rotation list, or just separate windows
- Print your library as a Catalog, sorted by song name or by artist
What Features are in store after 1.0?
- Record you singing with the background music, save result to MP3
- Burn your singing along with music an Audio CD
- Export as QuickTime
- "kJams Server" runs on Macintosh (and ONLY on Macintosh, and ONLY on >= OS X 10.4), and you can use any web browser (on any computer and OS) to get to the server. In the web browser, it let's singers log in, browse the server's Library, singer's History list, their Favorites list, add / reorder / remove / change key for songs in their Tonight list. So you can set up a few stations around the room for singers to log in simultaneously.
