These days radio stations spend more and more time on pure automation. This means that what was once a very small or overnight part of a station’s performance is now the predominant way of building and keeping audience. Sadly too many Australian stations are letting themselves down with amateurish cheap or free automation solutions that at their best try to imitate a professionally developed and tested solution; at their worst only serve to point out to their listeners that the station is one step up from the MP3 player they already probably own. This is not limited to community or narrow cast stations either: a lot of large commercial radio stations invest small fortunes in solutions designed in America, that need a university degree to setup, run and maintain so they rarely reach their potential!

So why is Ausradiostation light years ahead?
We have been developing software for radio automation at radio station’s we have
owned or operated right here in Australia (some of which have been unattended automation
24/7) since 1994. Our software is designed by experienced broadcasters and tested
under real radio conditions. It is constantly under development to meet the changing
nature of the industry and we rely upon feedback from users when incorporating new
features or options. Ausradiostation uses rule based time dependent scheduling of
audio that can be as simple or as complex as you need with hard lockable change of
hour features. Ausradiostation is a Cutting Edge intelligent Automation Engine (IAE)
capable of producing the most life-
You access all the software through a virtual computer desktop (Windows XP) environment
which we maintain for you 24/7. You can access it from any Internet connected computer
(we support every version of windows on PC, MAC and Linux, you can even access the
cloud through any web browser from home or on the road) using remote desktop. You
have full control over scheduling and access to a 100tb music library prepared to
professional radio standards (no broad “80’s”, “70’s” etc. folders either! We have
researched & categorized the CHR section of the library, for example, into the number
1’s in Australia, the chart movers etc. for you to professional standards) which
means no more ripping hundreds of CD’s to get started. No more having to do the music
research on every track. The library is constantly added to for you each month with
the very latest commercial releases at no extra charge. You can upload your own station
id's, adverts or any other relevant audio you need that we don’t already have available
in a pool for you. You have complete control over how the station sounds and what
audio is scheduled where in your own secure private virtual desktop -
Each cloud account includes two outgoing stereo cd quality audio streams back to you along the internet and our professional stream receiver/play out software: one for your studio and one you can use at your actual site, much in the manner historically used with satellite content, but far more customizable. This is not internet radio, the port we open for you has strictly 2 delivery grade streams and once they are running to you no one else can connect to that port. This means rock solid performance as you are not "fighting" for bandwidth or resources with 100 or so other listeners as you would on the average internet station.
We include our technology for reliably actually delivering audio to a remote broadcast site from our datacentre broadcast infrastructure, as part of the system. Something we have up til now charged a lot more for as a separate service. We also offer studio to site technology for delivery of live program audio at your studio as part of the service,
you only pay for what time you use.

Data/time (no minimum pay only for what you use) -
No charge for outgoing data (ie. 2 audio streams back to you)
* For the security of our cloud systems and other customers we can only offer a test drive if you enquire with an email address in the
same domain as your station web site -

We still have available the standalone version of Robot 2002 PRO (Version 5). This is end of life software which is no longer under full time development and sold with limited support. This means you can purchase our older product that has been tried and tested over time, but at a greatly reduced price because it has only second tier support. Support is limited to strictly email only and software updates are only released to patch security issues if they come to light.
END OF LIFE SOFTWARE!
