SoundFusion

Radio Playout Software


Updated Tuesday 01 May 2012

Our latest Twitter...

SoundFusion has been designed for Community Radio, RSL (Restricted Service Licence) and Hobby Broadcasters who require a radio-friendly way of playing music/jingles but without the additional features (and costs!) of a professional playout application.

It does not voice-track, it simply plays files in Live-Assist or Automated mode - A simple Segue Editor allows you to tighten the overlaps between tracks.  The main Playlist/Player features 2 outputs channels (A+B), with HotKeys, Files/Library PFL, Recorder and Segue PFL all have their own output device.

The layout of SoundFusion is designed to be as simple as possible - The Playlist is always visible - You can then use the right-hand side of the screen to select HotKeys (instant jingle buttons), File Browser (for memory sticks), Database Library (for searching), Scripts (for promo reads), or the Recorder which lets you record your show or perform off-air production.

SoundFusion can automate an M3U playlist created by StationPlaylist Creator - It can create, edit and save these playlists allowing pre-show production to take place in another studio.  Playlists are automatically loaded each hour allowing you to run SoundFusion overnight and during other periods of "non-live" programming.
