CD Sound Effects Organizer
This software is targeted at the audio labs. It manages a database of CDs in store, covering elaborate details of each track and index. The software then lets you create a play-list picking the desired sound effect by identifying a CD-TRACK-INDEX. This play list is then invoked in real-time by time-coded triggers from an external device like MIDI. A number of features help in the creation, maintenance and query of the CD database on indices, synonyms and key-words.

The Disc Jockey version of this software (CD Jukebox) has an auditing facility to clock all numbers played from different recording companies.
