I am experimenting with this for v3.x right now.  One item that is already on the roadmap is a voicetracker for the right-hand side, since we now have the required real estate. That sounds really nice :-) What are some other useful things we could do with that extra real estate? One thing

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 +1 to the segue idea. Being able to put scripts into Rivendell that can be displayed in that area would also be great - not all stations do voicetracking so this would perhaps be useful to them. Detailed current item info might also be useful (notes

One thing I don't get about Myriad's layout is why so much real estate is devoted to the width of the NOW, NEXT and LATER events, as well as the width of the log in the lower part of the screen. With the absence of any text or useful info, that's an awful lot of white space going unused. I get

I like all of the ideas so far. How about a screen that would let you record phone calls to put on air with a quick turn around? Nathaniel C. Steele Assistant Chief Engineer/Technical Director WTRM-FM / TheCrossFM On 5/10/2012 3:00 AM, James Harrison wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-

I'll join in with the script window. We have that facility on an ancient play out system where we put simple stuff in like Featured in the film The Three Idiots starring some really famous guy. It helps as a prompt for presenters who don't always have a clue what the song is. Wayne Merricks

I would suggest adding the ability to monitor inputs to Rivendell or the sound card. In our current system setup we play out tracks through rdairplay into our mixer then record back into the computer and send the audio to the encoder (darkice) using jack. It would be nice if you could select an

Hi guys, Would it be helpful to have live copy / notes scheduled with the music and displayed in the second screen? I have always seen folders and notes on almost every board I have ever used. Fred may want to comment on whether that would be possible, or worth the effort. Dave David R.

Hi all What I would like to see in a later version of Rivendell is the option to run Airplay + the quickfire buttons on one screen and a log listing on another (basically the one on the main log button now) so that you can always see the log Live as well as see-ing your quick play buttons. The

Hi Fred / All Both those features would be amazing! As a widget that you could choose to enable voice tracking in the system settings that would be great! Just an idea, maybe an information screen with all cart/cut info for currently selected cart. ie year, album,artist, number of plays, album
