Editing Singers names in the Playlist is back!!! I committed we'd look at it, and we did. It is fixed and in version 2.216... target release is Septmeber end.

Oh yes, 2.216 will also allow:

* Playing .wav and .wma songs from the hard drive (MP3+G and MP3 play is coming, .cdg play is also coming)

* Pause-Resume play at any point in the song

* Play multiplexed songs with the vocals muted

* Songbook upgrade allows you to print "addendum" pages of new release songs to add to your book instead of reprinting the whole book. We are working on an expanded songbook that includes removing duplicate songs, and print special pages such as for Duets, Spanish (German, French, etc.) language lyrics songs... Genre... basically any selection of our KMA stored parameters.

* Make the background transparent to allow mixing with motion or still video backgrounds outside Hoster (may not be in 2.216)

* Major speed-up importing CDG songs to KMA (Singer's discs they bring AND importing your discs) to allow playing .cdg songs already on your hdrive from Microstudio. Code's not done yet so we don't know the performance, so we can't quote any figures yet.

* Displaying the next Singer(s) on-deck between songs (selectable how many ahead to show, and duration to delay). Of course, those who try to maximize how many Singers per hour get to sing will never use this delay tactic to slow down their shows... but we are adding it. MANY of our users have discouraged us from wasting our time on this, but others "believe" they want it.
