Trying Orpheus

You don’t have to remove Musico first. Both can sit in the same server while you try Orpheus.

  1. Add Orpheus

    You need Manage Server in the server. Then join a voice channel and type /play with a song name or a link.

  2. Bring your playlists

    Paste a public Spotify, SoundCloud or Bandcamp playlist link into /playlist import. One import brings in up to 200 songs. More on playlists

  3. Play it anywhere

    Your playlists belong to your account, so /playlist play works in every server with Orpheus. You can keep 50, with up to 500 songs each.

If you get stuck, ask in the support channel.

Add Orpheus to your server

Free to add. It asks only for the permissions it uses, never Administrator.
