Qlab 5 script - Apple Music

[Daniel Charon]

Hey everyone.

I've used scripts to control Spotify from QLab 4. I'm interested in using similar scripts to control Apple Music in QLab 5. I've had some success with basic control with the following examples:

tell application "Music"
activate
end tell
tell application "QLab"
activate
end tell

and....

tell application "Music"
play
end tell

But I'm having a lot of trouble selecting specific playlists and controlling volume like I used to do in Spotify:

tell application "Spotify"
activate
play track "spotify:playlist:6UdDraJNsJJ4PDhRvtQ9qf?si=c41f92ce081342dc"
end tell

Does anyone have any example scripts that will work with Apple Music? Any thoughts or insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Daniel

Apple Music has a very comprehensive AppleScript implementation.

From Script Editor.app  File menu.... open dictionary.... music

e.g

tell application "Music"

set sound volume to 70

play (first playlist whose name begins with "Art of")

delay 3

set sound volume to 90

play (first track whose name begins with "Heavy Aspirations")

delay 5

stop

end tell

set sound volume to 0

play track "True Love"

repeat with i from 1 to 100

set sound volume to i

delay 0.1

end repeat

delay 15

set i to 100

repeat 100 times

set i to i - 1

set the sound volume to i

delay 0.1
