Chris - What was the final straw with Bob? . . . Inquiring minds want to know! 8>)))))

As to Hoster . . .

Layout still looks like it was designed in DOS.

bah.....I don't like CTRL and SHFT keys. And this is coming from a gamer that is accustomed to doing that every day. Karma's single key hot keys are what I am looking for. The programmable mouse is a solution, but I would need to do it x10. :/

Chris, take a look at Autohotkey (link in my previous post) Learning curve not that difficult. You can program one or multiple key strokes, mouse clicks and assign the whole thing to one hot key of your choice I use the F keys.Then you compile it into an exe file and copy to as many computers as you need.

My bad. I should have acknowledged that I am looking at the Autohotkey app. I am trying to stick with native functionality if I can, but the app does look cool. Thanks!

I really can't see how. In my opinion, CompuHost is so straight forward and less confusing then Hoster or Karma. In fact, I've had singers come up, when I happen to be in the bathroom or mingling with the crowd, that have put themselves in the rotation and chosen a song. These are people with no KJ hosting experience. That's how simple it is. It doesn't take a genius to figure it out.

So, if some singer can do it without knowing anything about the program, it's hard to believe that some of you find it so difficult to use. I would never use anything else. The other programs frustrate the hell out of me.

CompuHost offers more features than any other hosting program out there and is simple to use. For those who don't think so, I just don't understand what the problem is.

*** My Evaluation ***

CompuHost - Straight Forward • Self Contained • Simple To Use • Eloquent Interface.
Karma - Confusing • Windows all over the place • Terrible tech support
Hoster - Looks and feels like Windows 98

----

For those of you who think that Karma and Hoster are so wonderful, I call it the SmoothEdge69 Experience. What is that, you might say? Well, for years Smooth has always used a Behringer mixer thinking that it was the greatest thing ever. Then he changed to Allen & Heath. And has stated that he couldn't believe the difference in quality and that it was the best mixer he has ever used. Consider CompuHost being the best software like A&H being the best mixer.

So, for those, like him, who think Karma or Hoster is the greatest thing ever, try CompuHost. Learn it, love it. and you'll have the SmoothEdge69 experience too. And then you'll be saying, I can't believe I was using (fill in your software here) all these years when I should have been using CompuHost.

Thank You. Thank You Very Much.

***Note***

I do not work for CompuHost and receive no compensation for my comments. It's just that CompuHost is that good!

Did I say thank you? :D

Because for me it was!

I've also had singers with absolutely no hosting experience come up, type their name - their history comes up or they can type a song and click add to playlist - however i'd prefer they just tell me and don't really let them as the norm. So type name, type song, add!

And like you, I would never use anything else. I do try the others and still fall back to Hoster.[/quote]

We have added a bunch of Hot Keys in. Here are the lists of them.

And the F Keys will do as stated here
