Radio Automation Software doesn't come much better than Simian. The complete automation and radio playout system from BSI, with advanced capability and a solid reputation for reliability and world-class support.
Broadcast Computers is proud to have been very closely involved with the development of Simian for many years and supports thousands of Simian users around the world via the user forum and through custom international training seminars for Simian 'power users'.
Simian leverages the power of the Windows environment to give you many of the advanced features of the super expensive systems.
Features:
- Plays multiple audio files
- Integrated voice-track editor - voice track files will duck the songs
- Automatic SayTime and Temperature - can use different voices at different times
- Optional Song-Intro protection - have your liners & segues automatically positioned so that they don't crash the vocals!
- Dynamic HTML generation with built-in FTP client
- Windows Media Scripting Support
- RDS (RBDS) Track and Title export
- Background Recording, with the ability to play back while still recording!
- Pitch Shift or Time Stretch & Squeeze without changing the pitch (using TSX)
- Interfaces with third-party trigger and relay units
- Controls Broadcast Tools audio routers
- Optional Touch Screen, or use with a standard Keyboard & Mouse
- Comprehensive Macro command language
- Imports Traffic & Music Logs and can also merge logs chronologically
Simian is very easy to operate. Just record or transfer your music onto a hard drive (250 GB will store 5,500 Linear PCM songs) and Simian's dynamic database will automatically add the files to its database.
Use the easy search and filter options to drill-down to Title, Artist, Album, Year - find songs easily.
Simian will run entirely automated (our tests have achieved in excess of 250 days) or as a live-assist playout system.
Simian uses Microsoft standard audio files (compressed or non-compressed), MP2, MP3 files (via CODEC), and TM Century files. You can even run other programs on the same PC while you're running Simian and we've developed a number of additional utility applications available exclusively to Broadcast Computers customers.
You can use almost any Windows compatible sound card you want, from a SoundBlaster game card to a professional AudioScience audio adaptor with digital I/O - but to utilise some of the advanced features, you need a professional AudioScience sound card.
