The Patriot MP6 network player is a network audio player positioned for home use
.
Patriot MP6, a network player combined with Patriot Miaobi technology
Miaobi Click Reading! A new music sales platform?
Although network audio players are not uncommon abroad, in China Patriot MP6 is the first network audio player with very complete functions from hardware to software platform. From the starting point of Patriot MP6, in addition to the hardware that can realize the playback of network audio streams through Wifi and wired LAN, it can also be combined with the Miaobi application and cooperation between MP6Home and domestic giant whales, Sina Music Library, Google Music, etc. to achieve the authenticity of the content platform! And thanks to the combination of the wonderful pen and the magazine with patented printing, an innovative model of driving music sales through magazine sales has been realized. Next, let’s take a look at the Patriot MP6, a very innovative product from hardware to software.
As a network player targeted at home use, the Patriot MP6 must not only be placed in the living room, but also be considered for placement in bedrooms, study rooms, and even kitchens and other home environments. From the appearance design of MP6 this time, it is satisfactory. The first purchase of MP6 Patriot will give you a "music magazine" that can be read on demand, as well as Patriot's patented "Miaopen" that supports 2.4GHz wireless.

As a network audio player, Patriot MP6 can not only provide music based on cooperative platforms such as Sina Music Library and Google Music Library, but also has comprehensive considerations in terms of playback output and access to other audio program sources. First of all, in terms of output, the MP6 E808 model first launched by Patriot even has a ClassD amplifier inside. On the one hand, the unit can be separated from any speakers and use the built-in speakers to produce sound, so the MP6 can work independently; on the other hand, its ClassD can provide The output of 10WX2 under 8 ohm impedance is a very good design!
The back of the machine
In terms of program sources, in addition to streaming media from the Internet, there are two main aspects. The first is ordinary FM. You can see the FM antenna interface on the back of the machine. This is a very necessary function considering the current positioning of MP6. At the same time, it also has an Internet Radio function. This function is really fashionable. If you are tired of the countless advertisements in domestic FM, you can listen to European and American FM music programs. You will only hear the DJ editing for you all day long. Good music album. At present, a good Internet radio in Europe and the United States is also very expensive.
After looking at the configuration of the machine, everyone should be most concerned about the content that this network player can provide. As mentioned earlier, audio content playback based on the Internet is in the form of streaming media. This machine does not have a storage function, which can effectively avoid various piracy paths caused by storage. Of course, this requires users to consider that since it cannot be stored or obtained from a third party, where does the network playback content come from? Next up are the five major partners of Patriot MP6Home. They can be said to have their own characteristics and are authorities in various fields. They are Sina Music Library, Giant Whale Music Network, Google Music, Kuke Music and Jiajia.com.
Sina Music Library
Whale Music Network
First of all, let’s take a look at the familiar Sina Music Library and Whale Music Network (Google Music). Due to Google The music is mainly provided by the Whale Music Network, so the two can be considered as one. They have signed contracts with the four major record companies: EMI\Sony\Warner\UMG. It is said that Huaqi pays more attention to the European and American music content of Giant Whale and Google. Of course, we can also see that their Chinese music is not bad. As for Sina Music Library, although it is not as famous as Google, it has been doing quite well. We can see their updates on the top of the Sina homepage of Finance. The timeliness is very good, and it is almost a must-have platform for musicians to release new works.
Kuke Music Network
Let’s take a look at several other content providers. Kuke Music Network may not be familiar to ordinary people, but it is indeed a music website with its own specialties. Judging from their attention rankings, download rankings and homepage content, this is a music website focusing on music education content. Children who are learning musical instruments are really happy now. The Kuke website’s own e-magazine "Qin Tong" and the teaching materials for music education are very comprehensive. Patriot MP6Home cooperates with it because of this aspect. monopoly advantage.
Come and check out Jiajia.com. This is a website that collects audio content of folk art programs. Their positioning can be clearly seen from the homepage of the website. Of course, the cooperation with the Patriot MP6 platform can provide the latest, fastest and richest cross talk, sketch, and storytelling programs. In addition, there are also a lot of popular and best-selling audio books here.
Yobo Community
In addition, Yobo Music Community seems to be a new partner of Patriot MP6 platform. It is a website similar to personal music blogs and music communities. In terms of content provision, It supports uploading and publishing original music by yourself, and is an emerging music display and exchange platform.
Based on the content providers mentioned above, you can rest assured that Patriot MP6 will not run out of content to listen to. But how do we get this content? We have always emphasized that these are genuine content, are there any charges? Since these websites exist in their own right, is it OK to listen to them online using a computer? Why use Patriot MP6? Let’s take a look at the unique application mode of Patriot MP6!
Based on genuine content and streaming media, but now we still lack a sales channel and application experience channel. After all, in the long run, genuine and good content requires the support of our users, so as to ensure the healthy development of the industry; secondly, the 2.7-inch screen of the Patriot MP6 is definitely not suitable for selecting songs on it, and of course it cannot be accepted at the moment. Monitor, but it has a wireless 2.4G magic pen, so it needs to be implemented with a special magazine. And this kills two birds with one stone and solves the first problem mentioned earlier.
The five music magazines "Yinxiangjia" that have been released now
Are they priced at 20 yuan?
Now that the channel problem has been solved, let’s look at the application questions. Perhaps for young people, it is not necessary to use the Internet frequently, but for the elderly at home who do not know how to access the Internet, this wonderful solution + "Yinxiangjia" solution is very convenient. After we tried this function, many colleagues planned to buy a set for their parents to use. Of course, the magazine is currently free when you purchase the machine, but in the future you may have to pay for the magazine in order to listen to programs!
Click on the song you want
The sidebar of the magazine page is a virtual player, which can realize various functions of the player
As seen above, when we browse When you get to the category, menu or song title in the relevant magazine, you can use the magic pen to click on it, and then the MP6 can play the music you want. From a certain perspective, when you buy a magazine, you are buying hundreds or thousands of pieces of content that are classified into certain categories for you. At the same time, when playing music, you can adjust the volume, edit multiple track lists, pause, fast forward, and select songs through the virtual player in the magazine, which is very convenient.
Not afraid of folding
However, does such a book need to be well and carefully preserved to ensure the accuracy of reading? It’s not really necessary, look at the picture above where we ravaged the book. It can be used normally after unfolding.
In the long run, Patriot MP6’s platform has achieved a very good channel for music and audio content sales through Miaobi and Yinma magazines. Patriot cooperates with Yobo music submission platform and may even consider Grassroots musicians releasing and selling their own music is indeed a very good thing for genuine music. Of course, for ordinary users, in addition to the free magazines when purchasing the machine, they can also purchase albums at MP6Home.com through point cards. Moreover, some content lists built into the machine are also free. Let’s take a look at how to use them.
Setting interface on the machine
From the interface of the machine, we can see music, cross talk, opera and other channels. In the music channel, we can see the details as shown above. classification, but we don’t know whether this classification will be updated with a certain frequency. After October 20th, when we tested, the number one song in the Top 100 Chinese pop songs will still be Zeng Yike’s song? However, the old songs in it are still enough to listen to. . These are free.
Let’s take a look at FM radio stations and Internet radio stations. Taking the United States as an example, there are only about 20 Internet radio stations, which is obviously too few. I hope Patriot will update the software to achieve more channels. This should not be difficult. The FM function of the machine is very good, the listening effect is very good, and the frequency search that supports two decimal places is very accurate.
From our overall experience, Patriot MP6 E808 is a very careful product. Patriot uses Miaobi’s original patented technology to revitalize the unique genuine music sales market. From the current point of view, it has Good operability. From the perspective of content providers, there is no problem in terms of copyright, content richness, or timeliness. As long as users demand it, Patriot will do it, and there will be no shortage of content.
Rich content provided
In terms of hardware, the built-in power amplifier and built-in speaker design of Patriot MP6 E808 allow users to be more flexible and convenient to use with equipment at home. Of course, for many Like the radio player, the alarm clock function is also essential. Through Miaopen, you can not only play music in magazines on demand, but also perform simple remote controls such as playback, stop, and volume. It is a very good 2.4G wireless remote control. Judging from the usage pattern of Patriot MP6+ music magazine, it is different from our search on the Internet. Although it is connected to the Internet, it does not require the operator to learn computer Internet skills. He only needs to read the beautiful magazine and listen to himself Just listen to the music you want! This is an excellent choice for elderly users. It is also a good choice for IT professionals who want to escape from the computer temporarily, because even if we do not use magazines on demand, the FM and Internet radio in the machine can provide fresh content, and it is also very good to listen to music aside.
In the long run, Patriot MP6 is not a simple hardware product, an Internet audio player. It has designed a platform for the sustainable development of Chinese music and audio cultural content in the future, with sales. There are purchases, carriers, and users. This is an issue that no other brand has considered when making players, and therefore the Patriot MP6 should have a better future
