MusicOne
New
Invite your team, station by station — You can now invite colleagues on the Team screen and give each person viewer or editor access on each station. Viewers see the product read-only, with every editing control switched off.
New Song Filter clock item — Add a Song Filter to a clock and it fills the slot with the most overdue song matching your own criteria across categories, including two-fers that match the artist or year of the song before or after. If you later edit the neighbour it depends on, the filter picks again. A song you chose by hand always stays.
Create a station from MusicMaster — You can now create a station by importing a MusicMaster database file (.mmd), alongside the existing Music 1 import.
Improved
Tune how far apart artists play — The artist separation rule now has a slider that sets how far apart an artist is kept, instead of a fixed 50% of turnover. It shows only when artists actually qualify. Station settings also has a switch for symmetrical search depth.
Choose your schedule columns — You can now choose which columns you see in the schedule and in the replace and add panels, including tempo, gender, sound codes, length, cart number, hit year and last plays. The candidate list scrolls smoothly with load more instead of paging. Adding a specific song now shows rule violations too.
Edit song details from the list — Tempo, gender and sound codes can now be changed straight from a song's row in a category, including songs inside packets. You no longer need to open the media dialog to set them.
CSV imports match your columns — A library CSV no longer needs exact headers. Columns are detected for you, so a raw NextKast export imports with no extra step, and you only see the mapping dialog when the file is ambiguous. Rows with an empty or duplicate cart ID are skipped with a warning instead of failing the import.
Errors written in plain english — Errors now read as plain english instead of codes like clock_is_assigned_to_format. They also tell you the specific reason an action failed rather than a general failure.
Category lists behave like a table — The whole row is now the hit target in a category list, ctrl-click selects and double-click opens the song card. You can also sort by rotation stack, search by cart ID in the library and in clock media pickers, and search the rules list.
Fixed
Linked artists count as one act — Linked artists are now treated as a single act, and artists connected only through a shared partner are no longer treated as linked to each other. A shuffled category also no longer clashes the same artist where the rotation wraps around.
Songs air in rotation order — Only songs from the real rotation pool go to air. When a search has to fall back, the song goes to the manual stop list instead of being picked early. Countdown categories air the highest rank first, so top lists no longer need their ranks reversed by hand.
PlayIt Live export now correct — Exporting for PlayIt Live now produces a real .pipl log with the right header, per hour blocks, cart IDs, spot breaks as Merge Start and End, and a yymmdd filename, instead of a mislabelled mAirList file. Exports for m3u, DPL, NexGen, WideOrbit and AudioVault no longer come out with blank titles and artists.
Schedule editing no longer errors — Reordering or adding items on a day that is not scheduled yet now works, and so does finishing or removing items when a clock points at a category you have emptied. Picking a song for a slot that is already filled no longer corrupts the item.
Song cards show real play counts — A song's card now shows its true total plays instead of always showing 0. Songs you have just imported show an imported entry rather than an empty history.
Typing durations in rules works — The first digit you type now replaces what is in a duration field instead of being added to it, so times go in first time. The clock length rule shows your real longest and shortest clock length instead of 00:00.
Category figures count packet songs — Category and clock overviews now count the songs inside packets. Turnover, weekly and daily spins, song counts and the tempo and gender bars are right for categories that use packets, instead of treating each packet as one blank item.
CloudSync
New
CloudSync now works with PlayIt Live — CloudSync syncs both ways with PlayIt Live, so a PlayIt station can run its library through MusicOne.
Sync only what has changed — If your library is already in the cloud, you can choose a changes only sync instead of uploading the whole library again. You pick this in the new sync mode dialog.
Improved
CloudSync follows your system theme — CloudSync now matches your computer's light or dark setting across all its screens. It switches as soon as you change the setting, with no white flash at launch.
Fixed
CloudSync spots a dropped connection — CloudSync now notices within seconds when a connection has silently dropped after sleep, a network change or a timeout, and reconnects. It no longer sits there showing connected while nothing is syncing.
