I'm sure most "old schoolers" can relate when I say music scheduling has evolved at super sonic speed. We've come a long way from the days of jocks hand-picking vinyl for their show, to now being able to change a song on-air with a Blackberry....  Read More

I've been programming music for more than 20 years. Our company just underwent a complete overhaul back in August 2009. This included our on-air systems and subsequently our music system as well. I can tell you I couldn't be more pleased that we...  Read More

Consolidation and downsizing provides us the opportunity to do more with less (do you like how I approach this dilemma with a "glass half full attitude"?) MusicMaster is a key component in my arsenal. Programming music for a Hot AC,...  Read More

Scheduling music for Hot AC radio is all about balance. That's why I like to use the "instant analysis" feature in MusicMaster. I have it set to look for "fringe" sound codes. I can easily look at any hour and see exactly how many and what...  Read More

We changed to MusicMaster three years ago. Especially if more than one person is working on a schedule, it was difficult to see detailed problems in the schedule. With the highlight filters this a great way to check the most important strategic...  Read More

MusicMaster is very dope! MusicMaster is a very incredible program that's been very easy for me to use to program music for Power 106. There are many features I love to use. On Power 106, we have three different versions of each song that play on...  Read More

A feature in MusicMaster that I have found very helpful is the option to layer rules through multiple rule sets. I love having the ability to set an "ideal" rule(s) in the breakable rule sets and yet allowing MusicMaster to relax the rule to a...  Read More

We were having trouble getting the sound we wanted with our old scheduling software. We looked at several different products, and when we saw how well MusicMaster worked, we were sold instantly. We made the switch about 3 months ago and it has...  Read More

I love the Auto Platooning feature! It lets me add songs and then rotate them in from rest and back evenly over the course of 1 year, three months, 6 days and 22:34 minutes! The other feature I love is the music history chart (2 versions). One large...  Read More
