: Re: [BC] CD Players and OTS DJ

[Kevin Trueblood]

I realize that I'm about a week behind on this conversation but I thought I 
would toss my 2 cents in.  I've used OTS DJ for 5 years now on an Internet 
station I personally run at home.  That thing just runs and runs and runs on 
an 800Mhz machine.  The only problems I've ever had is with the computer 
running it on Windows 98SE.  Built in Shoutcast plugin, built in processing 
is a nice touch, and live-input which makes going on-air a snap.  Love OTS 
DJ.  Some of the auto EOM's suck, but the OtsStudio lets you go in and fix 
those and manually mark the EOM point.  I was beside myself when they came 
out with the new version that does MP3's and WAV's...so you can insert stuff 
automatically like news and voice tracks without having to convert to the 
OTS format.

Winamp with the shoutcast plugin works great. I have it set up at all of our
stations as a private feed so I can hear what is going over the air when out
of range. It has some delay but works well and is very stable.
    OTS works great as well for a home automation music system, it takes a
lot less power than my reel and carousel DP-1! Plus I dont have to change
tapes. OTS has made a change so that it will now import MP3's as opposed to
converting them to their OTS file. I have one box running the old version
(called OTSjuke) on a win ME machine (dont laugh) that has not been rebooted
in almost a year. Very stable and does what it was inteded to.
