kJams Lite
|
kJams Lite is a karaoke jukebox. Software works just like iTunes, but for Karaoke. In the Lite version, you can now rip (import), mix (make playlists) and play (from CD or from your hard drive), sort or search your library by name, artist or album, create custom playlists, show the graphics full screen on a second monitor or TV, change the pitch and tempo independently. Export the currently showing play list to an XML file (for integration with a web or database application), or copy the list to the clipboard (to paste into eg: Excel for printing song books). Export to your Video iPod too.
The Pro version also allows individual singers to manage their favorites, history and their "tonight" que, and builds the Rotation smart playlist from the singers marked as "here", and lets you manage multiple Venues, each with it's own set of Singers. You can separately purchase the Burning plugin if you want to make your own mix or backup discs. There is also a Music Store built in for one click shopping.
kJams Lite Features:
1. Full Unicode tag editing. ID3v2.3, VorbisComments, QuickTime Meta, and Xattr tags.
2. Rip new .cdg files: Just select the ones you want, and drag them into your library!
3. Encode audio with AAC, AppleLossless, WAV, AIFF, LAME MP3, or Ogg Vorbis
4. Ripping and encoding works FAST, in the background, so you can continue to run your show!
5. Plug in a microphone to sing along!
6. Use the freedb, MusicBrainz or KJ Pro to get meta data: Stick a disc in and it automatically queries the online databases for disc meta info. You can also edit the info and submit back to freedb! More Info. You don't even have to be online to use the freedb!
7. Keep a library: Browse your library, sort by any column! (see Screen Shots)
8. Make Play Lists: Go File->New Playlist. Give it a name. Drag songs into it. Click it. Reorder the songs, delete them. Delete the playlist. (Remember, sort the playlist by index (the left most column) to manually re-order them)
9. Import and Play existing Audio+G files. Zipped files or unzipped, no problem! Just "File->Add to Library...", select your files, folder, or drive, and hit okay! Respond to the format dialog to help interpret the names!, Supports all the popular formats, AIFF, WAV, MP3, AAC, MP4, even BIN / CUE.
10. Search or filter your library or playlists: Just press - -F to search the current playlist, or press -F to switch to and search your Library
11. 1-Click shopping music store
12. Play Graphics (optionally on a separate monitor or TV screen): Just drag the graphics window onto a second monitor, and press -0 to get to "Full Screen" mode. You can continue using the first monitor to manage the library window. Or just place and size it however you want!
13. Change Pitch / Tempo independently: Adjust the music pitch to fall within your vocal range! Or change the tempo (speed) of the music. Your settings are saved per song (as opposed to per playlist item)
14. Optionally automatically pause the playlist between songs, optionally cue the song to the first non-silent sample, so un-pausing is instant music (you can always just hit the Cue button too)
15. Remote Control: Use your BlueTooth phone to control kJams (see Downloads page)
16. Playlist Export: Export the currently displayed playlist to an XML file that you can then use with any application that supports XML, eg: a web application or SQL database. Alternately, just copy the playlist to the clipboard (in tab-delimited format), then you can paste that into eg: Excel or AppleWorks, to create custom song books for printing. Alternately, export the actual files that make up a song (zip or MP3+G) into a folder. (Advanced->Special->Copy all Playlist Files To...)
17. Relocatable Libraries: Pull ripped audio out of iTunes for easy library consolidation and migration. See How.
18. Switchable Albums & Global Song Ratings
19. Preset Playlists: Find all duplicates, find all songs still in iTunes (then move them into kJams), find all songs that have only audio. Find all corrupted zip files. Got an idea? Let me know!
20. Play CD+G discs directly (without manually ripping first)
21. Import and play any QuickTime format
22. Suppress the vocals from a channel (eg: some Karaoke has vocals in the right channel, kJams can remove it)
23. Export iPod Video! Use iTunes to move the resulting movie to your iPod!
24. Target Mode Move songs to any Playlist with a double-click!
25. re-encode existing songs: Got songs in WAV, AIF, or BIN or BIN/CUE? Simply re-encode in OggVorbis or MP3 or AAC to save lots of space! Got an MP3 and would rather have Vorbis? Just re-encode! (Operates in place so you may want to duplicate your song first if you want to keep an original)
26. Play LRC, Enhanced LRC, UltraStar (SingStar), and TunePrompter files and export them as beautiful high quality quicktime.
