Scheduled overlay tracks to be played only over music?

[Danijel]

Mostly for station IDs (to be played for example every 7 minutes), it would be very usefull and I hope simple option to programe in RadioBOSS for you?

So I do not want it to be played with scheduler over jingles and commercials...

I'm afraid it's not possible now. How do you create playlists? It may be a good idea to include station IDs while creating a playlist, not when it's playing.

Well, over a day we create it manually, song by song because we have live program and somebody is always in the studio, and for night we use Generator.

I made a folder IDday, and IDnight and I like to have some ID played over every second song.

I was thinking, maybe iz would be more easy to just ad an option that when it is scheduled to be played every 7 minutes as overlay, does not play over certain type of file.

Another, maybe more complicated option is that you can for example: right click to a song in playlist and option "add overlay" to a 15, or any other second of the song. Something like "segue" with option to reduce level of song.

Only if you try that with segue editor, to pull ID to the middle of the song, next song will start riht after ID, so that does not work.

First is I think better, just option that schedulled overlay does not play over jingles, commercials etc, only over music.

For night part you can include IDs during the generation, and for day part include IDs manually.

This is more complicated than it looks at the first sight - for instance, the ID can start when music track is playing (and ending) and overlap the following commercial block...

Another, maybe more complicated option is that you can for example: right click to a song in playlist and option "add overlay" to a 15, or any other second of the song. Something like "segue" with option to reduce level of song.

This is what we have planned for RadioBOSS 5.3 actually
