Compile and run the pro-level audio playlists for a broadcasting or Internet radio station, with music rotations, hour markers and commercials. Set a background music to be played at clubs, bars, restaurants, gyms, shops, etc. Manage and access your existing records stored on disk or hard drive in all popular audio formats. Other features include automatic creation of song teasers, volume leveling, crossfading, silence trimming, playlist generation, remote control API and many more.
Nowadays, thanks to the Internet, owning and running a radio station is easier than ever. This program helps you automatize many of the tasks needed to run a radio station. It has an attractive and easy-to-use interface that even non-experts can use. You can create customized playlists from your music collection, as well as intercalate jingles, teasers, time announcements, and more. Please take into account that the program does not have the capabilities to record these items, so you will need a recording program to do so.
The program has the capabilities to let you broadcast an Internet radio station. You only need to choose the relevant encoder according to the Internet radio server you use. Also, you can ask the program to create reports on its use on a daily or monthly basis. You can set the elements you want to appear on the report, such as song title, artist, album, genre, and so on.
The first step is to set up your music library. You can add easily all your music by adding the folder in which it is stored or add individual folders by artist, record, and so on. Once you have done this, you can select the songs and other audio files to be played in sequence.
The program has many other useful features, so if you aren't familiar with the subject, it may take a while to learn how to use all of them.
In general, it is a good and easy-to-use program. Nevertheless, it is aimed at professional users who already run a radio station or who are planning to do so, and thus, the price tag is not very affordable for non-professional users.
You can use the shareware version of the program during 150 times. If you like the application and intend to use it longer, then you will need to purchase a license.
