Musicbeds running into song intro

[Jörg B]

would like to report a bug that I've been encountering repeatedly for some time now. I'm currently using Radioboss 7.0.5.0 on our playout server. I keep noticing that music beds used for a voicetrack are running into the intro of a song, so that the intro and the music bed play together in the background of the voicetrack until it ends. I have different categories that are treated as voicetracks because I have different music beds for each show. However, the error occurs with all of them. I have set the intros and outros in the track tool and have also ruled out any error in the mixing settings of the tracks.

The Screenshots show how it is configured

You seem to be using the File Type bed, and it's always played with the file type (regardless if it's treated as a voice track not).
If you want the bed to only be used for voice tracks, and play it only when there's no music, you need to configure it in this section (at the bottom): https://manual.djsoft.net/radioboss/en/fading.htm ("Voice track bed").

I didn't think of that at all. But there's another problem with it. The same music beds would always be playing, and I can't use show-specific ones unless I manually switch them out each time, which really isn't very efficien

If you use bed for a file type, it will be used for all tracks of this type. If you need to assign a bed for a specific file, you can either create a separate file type for it, or mix it in using audio editor.
