I'm in the last phase of creating this plug-in and would need a couple of beta testers in the coming week for purposes of debugging and bouncing off some ideas.
Basically, this plug-in will allow for the control (transport, song selection, etc) of the Audiotron and set the values of its MLServer variables which can then be used in a MainLobby scene.
Please PM me if interested.

This sounds great. I have been waiting for a plugin for the audiotron for a long time. Keep up the great work.

midi-guy,
It might be helpful to post a screenshot of what it actually looks like in MainLobby.

Have you let the AudioTron user group know about the plugin? It may generate more interest.

I'm currently the initial phase of beta testing with 3 members.
In the next phase (pretty soon), I'll be adding a MainLobby interface/scene. I'll post the scene once it's done.
However, my original idea was to have the user create their own scene.
Lastly, in the next phase I'll make a public 'beta' release.
Thanks.

Sorry guys, but I've been busy with other things, but I've made room in my schedule this week to finally put this thing to bed.
OK, I'm going to be releasing this plug-in into the 'wild' this week.
Look for it by mid week.
Basically, it will be released as a plug-in only. However, I'll add a simple MLS for use as a starting point to build your own scene.
Basic transport and play queue management would be offered through the MLS, but the plug-in's UI will provide functionality for fully controlling the AudioTron (based on my needs).
At this point, a single instance of the plug-in, hosted by an instance of MLServer, can control only one Audiotron.

will the mls section be able to display cover art? this will be a great alternative to the poor software solution currenlty offered.

It will display cover art, albeit using a very crude method.
In any case I ran into an issue with one function in the plug-in. I'm still trying to fix it. I 'll be releasing the plug-in this weekend.
Thanks for your patience.

Forum software now lists me as an Expert.
Me?

Not after I just butchered a simple MLS scene. I don't know about you guys, but anytime I think about creating a scene from scratch, I just give up in the end.

That's an HTTP 'not authorized' message.
Make sure that you've entered the correct login credentials for your AT.
The factory defaults for the AT are:
