Orchestrion Player updates, please!

Hello, I am here to bring forth an extremely important topic! This topic is not thought of much, but please understand that it is very important! Please read this, Yoshida! Ok.

------------------------------------------------------------

• Please allow the Orchestrion Player to play more songs.
Right now, the current list of songs to play is too small. If you are in your house for more than 30 minutes with friends, it becomes tiring to hear the same songs looping over and over again. but if you do not do that, then you have to listen to the zone song looping. And if you do not want that, then you have to turn your XIV music off! So this is why I believe it is time to increase the number of songs that are currently allowed to play on the Orchestrion Player's playlist! Please increase the songs allowed in your orchestrion player to 15-25 songs, if possible!

• Please allow the Orchestrion Player create and keep more than one playlist.
Some times I like only peaceful songs playing, and other times when my friends come over, I like more upbeat songs playing! It is a bit awkward to stop and change songs in front of guests so suddenly like that. So, Please allow for more than one playlist to be kept on the Orchestrion Player!

• Please add more Orchestrion Rolls from zones in the past that have still not been added yet!
For example, The Sylphlands Sylph Theme "A Curious Breed of Botherment" ! One like that would be great around Halloween time. Sadly though, it has still not been added as an Orchestrion Roll. Please revisit beloved songs like this that are currently being ignored! And finally,

• Please allow for the ability to change the orchestrion playlist from anywhere inside the house!
Changing songs from a orchestrion housing item is a good idea in theory, however, in practice, this can be a hassle if you do not actually wish to have such an item displaying in your house. Running over to it can also be a bit awkward as well. Please consider adding "Orchestrion Song Changing" to the housing menu UI area, as well!

------------------------------------------------------------

If anyone else has any ideas or songs to add, please include them.
Thank you for reading!!

Yes, I agree I keep mine to a 1-3 song cycle but having 24 songs is a nice amount


Also I want v2 of Close in the Distance. Its instrumental is a banger

Ooh, I really like the playlist idea! That would certainly be nice to have, instead of having to change around a bunch of different songs when you have company over.
Also yes, WHY are there still songs in game that are not on orchestrion rolls? Yoship please, both collectors and music nerds NEED these please ok thank you.

I’d love the ability to make more than one playlist! I change mine around for different seasons/events. I’d also like to have more songs per playlist, as well as more styles of the orchestrion furnishing. I use the mini phonograph one because it takes up the least amount of space and looks better with my style than the big jukebox version.

A related feature I’d like to see in-game is something to tell us the name of the music playing in whatever area we’re currently in… maybe a chat command that would display “Now Playing X,” and when you click on the song title, it would give you a pop-up telling you where it’s obtained from, or “not currently obtainable.”

Along with that, can we get a green dot on new orchestrion rolls like we do for new emotes?

I'd love the ability to have it play a certain song during the day, and a separate song at night much like many of the cities that have different music by time of day.

Actually this idea is a banger I a music Playlist that swaps out during day/night cycles

HELLO there!
NOT to be a pest, but I could not help but notice that once again, we are being given fantastic new, wonderful, and amazing songs for our Orchestrion Players! However, we still have not had a raise in how many songs, nor playlists we are allowed to have! There are many many great songs, and only more continue to come, so please consider allowing us to have more songs in our Orchestrion Player playlist! Thank you, that is all.

Adding my support to this, especially the first point (but the others are great as well!) Currently trying to create a playlist again and limiting it to 8 songs is very difficult. There are so many absolutely amazing music pieces from all sorts of content, but listening to 8 on a loop while crafting or so is going to get repetitive really fast. Please, make it 30 or so at least.
