Accessible DJ Software for Use at a Radio Station

Hello,

I am a DJ at a local college radio station in my town & have previously cued up and played songs using Amadeus Pro. I would like a better solution so I can select the songs I would like to play, so that once I get into the studio, I am ready to go. I would also like this program to have streaming support, as sometimes I will be away from the studio and will need to stream the broadcast to the station for rebroadcast. Any help and or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Noah Carver

Could you provide the answer to the following questions?

• Do you need automation and scheduling?
• Do you have an external MIDI or DJ controller?

Also, in regard to streaming:

• Is latency OK, or do you need two way realtime streams?

Hello,
Unfortunately Radiologik does not provide streamingsupport, you'll need something like NiceCast for that, but there are no all-in-one solutions like Station Playlist on Windows that provides both streaming and the means to stream the audio. I use Radiologik to provide the audio which is great for transitions and the like, and NiceCast to handle server streaming stuff. Best of all, no DJ controller or Mixer needed. I did get word from MegaSeg that they will be coming out with an accessible version this year. Who knows when that'll be though. Even then, you will still need a companion streaming app such as NiceCast.

HTH--I know that wasn't your requirements, but there is, at present, not an app that will do exactly what you want. Trust me, we all want one like that though.
