Dee Jay: A voice-controlled juke box for Windows Vista
I stumbled across a new app on the net that uses the cool new recognition platform and recognizer included in Windows Vista. It's called Dee Jay and it was written by Martin L. Shoemaker from Inkon Software. I haven't downloaded it myself, but from it's description it sounds very cool.
Here's what Martin says you can do with it:
Here is a list of the Dee Jay commands. Note that you can change Dee Jay's name, so replace "Dee Jay" with your chosen name in these commands.
- Dee Jay, Play MUSICKEY. Plays a song, an album, or a named collection. Replace MUSICKEY with a phrase that identifies a song. (See below for details on MUSICKEY.) If there are multiple matches for the MUSICKEY, Dee Jay lists them one at a time, giving you a chance to say "Play" (which also ends the list),"Back up", "Next", or "Cancel".
- Dee Jay, Play Some MUSICEY. Dee Jay picks one song from the MUSICKEY at random.
- Dee Jay, Play Any MUSICKEY. Same as Play Some.
- Dee Jay, Play All MUSICKEY. Plays all songs from a MUSICKEY, in a random order.
- Dee Jay, Add MUSICKEY. Adds a single song to the current playlist.
- Dee Jay, Add Some MUSICEY. Dee Jay adds one song from the MUSICKEY at random to the current playlist.
- Dee Jay, Add Any MUSICKEY. Same as Add Some.
- Dee Jay, Add All MUSICKEY. Adds all songs from a MUSICKEY to the current playlist, in a random order.
- Dee Jay, Pause. Pauses play.
- Dee Jay, Resume. Resumes play.
- Dee Jay, Next. Skips to the next song in the play list.
- Dee Jay, Back. Jumps to the previous song in the play list.
- Dee Jay, 5 Stars. Rates the current song as 5 stars. Other commands (of course) are 4 Stars, 3 Stars, 2 Stars, and 1 Star.
- Dee Jay, Louder. Raise volume by 10%.
- Dee Jay, Softer. Lower volume by 10%.
- Dee Jay, Hush. Drop volume to 10%.

- Dee Jay, About. Describe Dee Jay and its current version.
- Dee Jay, Exit. Exit Dee Jay.
- Dee Jay, Hello. Dee Jay greets you.

- Dee Jay, Rename NAME. Changes the name Dee Jay responds to. Replace NAME with your Dee Jay name.
- Dee Jay, Reset Name. Changes the name back to Dee Jay.
- Reset Name. Same as Dee Jay, Reset Name. I figured people might forget their Dee Jay name and need a way to default it.
- Dee Jay, What can I say? Describes the commands.
- Dee Jay, Help. Same as Dee Jay, What can I say?
- What can I say? Same as Dee Jay, What can I say?
