Features

Filing: Audio material ingested to the system is organized in a category tree. Each material, in addition to belonging to one or more categories (for instance, a Madonna’s song can be cataloged as “Madonna”, “Pop”, “’90s hits”), it has other attributes such as: title, length, artist or performer, songwriter, album and other comments.

Safety: Users are divided into users groups; each of them assigned with specific license for access, edition and playout in the different material categories.

Search: it is equipped with a powerful built-in tool that allows searching the whole database just by typing a few letters.

Page organization: it supports the creation of multiple pages, each with sixty buttons. Audio material button assignment is possible just by dragging the selected material and dropping it on the button.

Audio graphic ID: Each button -with optimized size for Touch Screen monitors use- not only displays the assigned material titIe and length but it also shows if the audio material is marked or if a Loop has to be played back. Moreover, an image can be assigned to each button making visual identification of the audio material needed considerably easier.

Marker support: each button allows marker storing for the assigned audio material to play back only a fragment of the whole file.

Play back: it manages three simultaneous playback units with independent controls: two for Program and one for Cue. These units can be assigned to different audio devices. It supports SoundBlaster type cards or professional AudioScience or Digigram cards type.
