New DMDS Manager Makes Downloading Faster and Easier
The former DMDS Agent has now been given its gold watch and retired in favor of the completely redesigned DMDS Manager. With many new features and time savers - it's an exciting new part of DMDS 5.0. Here are just some of the new enhancements:
- Insanely fast download speeds thanks to our CDN (Content Delivery Network) – downloads are equally fast worldwide.
- Intuitive new interface…bolder buttons – much easier to navigate!
- Burn downloaded files direct to disc.
- A ton of new customizations in user preferences including: Download timers, bandwidth throttling, special network download preferences to make syncing files and data with your scheduling and playback systems faster and easier.
- Enhanced iTunes integration.
- Optional ‘Managed Update’ to make getting the latest version super quick.
Stream Previews of Tracks Direct from Notifications
When record labels and other content owners send out notifications - they have the option of including a stream preview of the track without requiring a log in to DMDS. Now you're just ONE click away from that 'instant on' experience. If you like the track, simply log in and download or stream the full quality version.
Get the Latest Charts from R&R/BDS and Mediaguide
We bring sampling of the many charts and data available from our premium partners. Click on the Charts module and select the provider to see a listing of available charts for you to scan. To get the full details…you're just one click away from jumping to our partners' site. Some of this data is integrated on the Release details page…now you can quickly and easily search and sort tracks based on chart action.
Manage and Enjoy your Music with the Advanced Audio/Video Player
If you've ever used other systems, it is frustrating that you can only use the player to listen to one track at a time without basic controls like adjusting volume or pausing. DMDS 5.0's advanced audio/video player allows you to quickly and easily build, manage and save playlists (and yes, adjust volume and pause!). Add tracks you're considering for airplay, adjust the order, remove some, add others and save it for auditioning in your weekly music meeting.
Improved Website Interface - More Intuitive, Flexible and Easier
DMDS 5.0 has a multitude of enhancements that along with lightning quick page navigation, add up to a better user experience. Included are:
- The 'Dashboard' lets you organize and display the information you want to see right when you log-in. It's also a convenient place to store your notifications for reference on demand without referring to your email.
- Modules keep you just one click away from viewing chart info, quick previews of release details, viewing past releases from the same artist, similar artists (last.fm generated), comments made by peers, and more.
- Customize your library to show the order of the columns you want to see first.
- Provide instant feedback to labels/content providers and contribute to the radio community by commenting on releases, and replying to comments made by peers.
Multi-Format Downloads - Music for Airplay or Your iPod
Whether you're a programmer or an engineer, DMDS 5.0 makes things simpler by giving you the choice of download format: WAV or MP3. Unlike another system, there's no need to download proprietary files, then 'export' them to something you can actually use - Simply download the file, and it's ready!
