Sound Leisure, along with its music supply partner Soundnet, has launched a new model of jukebox called Music Milestones.
The company’s jukeboxes featuring Milestones in Music technology have been widely adopted across the UK pub market over the last six years.
The new Music Milestones unit features online connectivity to enable uploading of tracks, as well as the company’s OpWeb online management systems. It also offers a D4 – Digital 4 channel amplifier that has previously been included in SL’s Pulse and VenueHub range. The company’s Milestones in Music PC, LCD and touchscreen hardware are all included in the new package.
"The Milestones technology has become the bedrock of the British pub over the past six years, not only because of the bullet-proof technology but also because the end users love it,” said Sound Leisure’s Chris Black. “Over the next few months other exciting developments will be released for the Milestones In Music technology to further cement it as a fantastic long-term product."
The original Milestones in Music jukebox technology allowed for thousands of tracks to be held locally. This eliminated the need for a broadband connection in order to access the music server.
“Time has moved on and the new Music Milestones has online connectivity as standard, which eliminates the need for tracks to be manually uploaded by disk. It also means that operators can manage their settings and audit performance remotely via OpWeb,” explained Soundnet’s James Luck. "The OpWeb is going through continual development with a new release available shortly. Sound Leisure and Soundnet are investing heavily in the development of new functionality for the online MIM platform, so this machine is fully backed and future proofed. Many more sites now have broadband as standard and we have helped many others get online.”
The deal the company signed with The Official Chart Company to provide music and the work completed in updating the OpWeb online management system makes the jukebox a “sound investment,” he added.
