Fidelity Media today announced the release of MegaSeg 3.1, an update of the DJ and radio automation software for Mac. The new version includes support for Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) and QuickTime 7, as well as the MIDI based Hercules DJ Console controller (www.hercules.com) for users who prefer a more tactile control interface. MegaSeg 3.1 also adds new features to the Scheduler that allows the user to determine when specific categories get reshuffled, along with manual reordering of tracks in a category's rotation, time based events accurate within a second of any given minute, and Rule warnings updated every 30 seconds instead of after each segue. Also included are over 30 various performance enhancements, bug fixes, and interface improvements. MegaSeg is a totally self-contained DJ music mixing and radio automation system which benefits from the ease, mobility, and reliability of Mac computers. MegaSeg enables DJs and radio stations to put their massive music libraries on their Mac and seamlessly segue or beat mix between songs or music videos, trigger sound effects via hot keys, note requests via color coded request lists, cue tracks via a second sound output, create dynamic scheduled playlists, and program timed playlist events. Mobile DJ businesses can use MegaSeg to easily add another system to their growing business, and is a professional solution for DJ's who need more mixing control than Apple's iTunes offers. MegaSeg has full integration with the iTunes library and playlists, including compatibly with songs bought from the iTunes Music Store.
