Your own music

Since 0.5.2-birch-14 the pack uses Music Disc Maker for your own music. It replaced Custom Discs, which could not run next to Ad Astra.

Make a disc

1. Craft a Music Disc Maker and a Blank Disc (lapis lazuli and iron).
2. Open the maker and either:
   • paste a link (YouTube, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, a direct audio link, or a live radio stream), or
   • import a file from your computer (audio or video).
3. You get a music disc. Put it in a jukebox and everyone nearby hears it, in sync.

Build a venue

• Golden Jukebox: set the range from 4 to 256 blocks, the volume up to 200%, and whether it sounds positional or fills the area evenly. A redstone pulse starts or pauses it.
• Speakers: link them to a Golden Jukebox to carry the music to other rooms. Each has its own volume, and redstone mutes one.
• Boombox: carry music around, with skip, shuffle and repeat. Albums hold a whole playlist.
• Disc Dyeing Table and Disc Pedestal to make and show off your collection.
• Music follows Create contraptions and Create Aeronautics ships.

Good to know

• Links play from the source. A disc made from a link stores the link, not the song. When it plays, every listener’s game streams it from that site (YouTube, SoundCloud and so on), so it needs their internet connection, and the site sees their connection like a normal visit. Some videos are region locked or blocked; try another link if one fails.
• Imported files are stored on the server, so they play for everyone without any outside site.
• Old Custom Discs are gone. That mod was removed in birch-14; any Custom Discs left in the world were deleted (there were none when we checked).
• Only share music you have the right to share, and keep public venues to what you would play for the whole server. Staff can remove discs that break the rules.
