auto sweeper mode

Post by Jeroen R »

Would it be possible to have an artist announcement appear on the intro or ramp?

This would be implemented via the automatic track insert transitions option.
Currently, under ARTIST MATCH it says ----> PROTECT RAMP; can you set this somewhere to END RAMP?

Or is there another possibility? I already tried via the general settings, but the script always takes precedence. If this isn't possible on the RAMP, I completely understand. But then I know what the possibilities are; I'll just put a tune under the announcements.

Is it possible that this does not follow the scripting restriction under - automatic track insert transition option - e.g. time of day plays at any moment.... For example, the artist announces "Good morning, I am X and you are listening to x." I have set this jingle like our other time jingles, but everything still plays mixed up via this.

Thanks in advance for the advice. The ARTIST MATCH works perfectly; if this were possible on the RAMP as well, that would be great.

No, there is currently no other possibility. But what is wrong with the Auto Sweeper Mode "Artist Match (VO: ProtectRamp)" ?

An additional new mode "Artist Match (VO: EndRamp)" might be added somewhere in the future.

and could it be that with this option, it does not select the jingles based on the set time?
So these do not follow the scripting restrictions (track is still PICKED when....)

another quick question:
Would it also be possible to do this as well? ;
VO: START with OUTRO of Previous or END with RAMP.
(if there is no OUTRO, it starts at NEXT of Previous)

currently it does exist;
VO: START with OUTRO of Previous and END with RAMP
So that with a short VO, it still starts on the OUTRO; currently it is only possible to end on the RAMP or start on NEXT.
For example, there is an OUTRO of 10 sec, an INTRO of 20 sec, and VT is 10 sec; then we would like this VT to still appear on the OUTRO.
with this, this would probably be possible;

VO: START with OUTRO of Previous or END with RAMP.

and would it also be possible to combine AUTOMATIC SOUNDBED with AUTOMATIC TRACK INSERT TRANSITION OPTION.
So when VO plays without OUTRO or RAMP, SOUNDBED plays.
If you combine this, SOUNDBED plays over the RAMP.

With the AutoSweeper you can set the "Use Track Restrictions and RuleSets" - but not the scripting restrictions. As scripting restrictions only apply to the regular audio tracks, but not the sweepers.

No, SoundBed and AutoSweeper can not be combined (that would be 3 tracks playing in parallel).

I will take a look for even more AutoSweeper options, but I guess this gets quite complex, as I assume you want this together with the 'Artist Match' option as well - right?

Since the questions are a bit mixed up, here are a few screenshots with the questions. Thanks in advance; the questions are simply out of pure interest and to be able to apply them to the already amazing things that are possible.
