Radiologik DJ beta goes public

MacinMind has debuted the first public beta of Radiologik DJ, a tool for DJ broadcasters who have access to digital music. Radiologik DJ, the company claims, was tested on and developed with knowledge from two different live DJ stations. It features three main players and one library player, all of which allow rapid importing through Mac OS X and iTunes. It offers live searching for quickly locating tracks and the players properly overlap for cold starts and stops--without a cross-fade. The software integrates with iTunes by registering songs as played and adjusting the last played and play count fields. It also includes a talk time counter to gauge the intros to songs.

Unprotected MP3 and AAC files are supported, as are ITMS-secured AAC, AIFF and WAV files. Playback options include ads, dynamic "up next" announcements, and cold starts and stops without crossfading. The scheduler is based on AM 1710. The program is a 4.7MB download, and a Universal Binary for Mac OS X 10.3.

The company is also planning a Radiologik Scheduler, which will schedule tracks using its own top logic to select from playlists or primarily smart playlists in iTunes and put together a new playlist for every segment; Radiologik will then offer playback of the playlist or alternatively users cay play it via iTunes. A beta is planned for early April.
