JAZLER RADIO STAR II: Radio Automation Software

"My first encounter with the Jazler was in 2010. I had been vested with the responsibility of scheduling music at a radio station I worked with. It came with its challenges but I was quick to learn and appreciate the advantages automation would give radio broadcasting. We started with the SIMPLE PACK and then my curiosity led to the discovery of the RADIO STAR II, which I still recommend to any radio station keen on a user friendly interface with less technical wahala in Nigeria". ~ Tony Doe

Here are the Jazler RadioStar II features...




Main Screen
  • Advanced Automated Rotation Scheduling
    The scheduler in RS2 is designed and based on the clock system, where you can create clocks and then program them to specific active and play times. A clock is a virtual playlist where you do not enter the exact song, but its category or properties
    Example: Song(Hot Current) > Song(Current 1) > Jingle (MusicJingle) > Song (90's) (Pop) > Jingle (Transition Slow) > Song (Slow)
  • SuperSearch Engine In The Studio
    The supersearch engine gives you the ability to search for tracks in the database and returns to you results while you are typing. Supersearch also has the ability to search in the songs like a search machine, searching the whole database to find a matching result (Name, Title, Album, Songwriter, Composer).
  • Powerful Audio Engine
    A new playback engine is embedded on RS2. Hear crystal clear sound from all the popular file formats. Supports almost all audio cards with either software or hardware mixing. The playback system also includes a DSP Plugin system compatible with most Winamp DSP Plugins to make your sound exactly as you want.
  • RDS Text Transmission, RDS Text character replacement for localization and RDS Direct text transmission
    Full control of the RDS right through the Studio. Edit the texts that you want be broadcasted on any day, at any time.
  • Import Playlists from external Playlisters
    Jazler RS2 has a strong import engine to import text playlists from the most famous playlisting softwares. Jazler also produces a customized reconciliation text file to be imported back to the playlister so you can make your next playlists!
  • Import Commercial Break Playlists
    Jazler RS2 can import programmed spots from external commercials playlist management systems.
  • Instant Jingles with auto-gain reducing of the main audio
    While playing an instant jingle the main audio automatically reduces it's volume (option) in the percentage you have previously selected. Jazler also gives you the right to playout your instant jingles on a third sound card, so you can adjust your volume live from your mixing console fader, during live assist.
  • Automatic databases backup & mirroring
    Jazler automatically backs up of all your databases, making sure that none of your categorizations, statistics etc will be lost in case of a computer crash or malfunction . It also can make a mirror of the database on a different computer for emergency playout purposes.
  • Artist & Title text upload to your web-site or SMS provider
    Lets anyone know which song is "on air now", with a simple and easy procedure. RS2 also lets you publish the previous and next songs to be aired. All available in XML format, so you can manipulate the provided data exactly as you want. This feature also includes a custom made HTML file for quick results.
  • Mass songs import with auto-cue to find mix-points
    Save extra time by letting Jazler automatically mark the mix-points of each song. A brand new algorithm finds cue points in less than half a second for each song, avoiding awkward air silences.
There's so much more to this software which also allows the users manipulate it to suit their own or as the case may be the station's needs. You can add the station's logo and play music files right from windows, without uploading them into the software! 

The downside is that not all audio formats get integrated but that's cancelled out if you can play from windows without leaving the screen!
Holla for a demonstration if in need by getting in touch with us via our contact page!

Cheers!
