Summary (DJ)
In the overarching comments given by our user testing groups, we noted that there were several comments that came up repeatedly, mainly our need for a consistency in UI. Because one of the main needs for our user base was in-obstruction to the other software that they are using to keep the party going. Information, such as genre popularity with both audience voting and previous songs played, could be useful if it were shown with automatic updating and historical data saved and available. Showing the visual information with other indications, such as alarms and lights to inform of voting results or recommendations for song selections. Other possible changes include more effective timelines and seamless plugins for the most common software that people use for their DJ equipment, as well as*:*
- Click the bars and see what songs fit in that category
- Find what was played on the last part of the hour
- Circle chart needs to have indicator of what's popular currently
- DJ feedback, shows genres during period of time to see what could have been better
- Needs to be clearer and quickly readable
- Show the DJ visualizer on Virtual DJ
- Time slots on DJ feedback page
- No immediate relevant information
- Know what people want, can adjust accordingly
- Adding a time reference
- Bar graphs need to show time
- Circle does not give more information than bar.
- Lights can be effective, indicate certain alerts or important info.
