  • I want to start a radio station what is the best way to learn how?
    Rivendell - Linux based and way more powerful than RadioDJ. Only attempt if you’re really technical. I’m in the middle of building a system to see if I like it better than RadioDJ. It took me weeks to sort out audio issues (and I’m fairly technical). Source: about 1 year ago
  • ISO Automation Reviews
    Due to being open-source, you *can* just obtain the Rivendell software suite from http://rivendellaudio.org/ and run it. But, unless you're a Linux pro, you will want a pre-installed system + some form of basic technical support as you learn the software. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Music Scheduling for a couple hour blocks record to a podcast?
    If you have some Linux knowledge or are willing to learn, there is nothing more powerful than http://rivendellaudio.org/ in the "free as in beer, free as in freedom" radio automation space. Source: over 2 years ago
  • USB audio unusual use case, with bad results, wonder if anybody has any ideas.
    I have radio station running Rivendell (http://rivendellaudio.org/). Per Rivendell's documentation, all the machines are running CentOS 7. Overall the system works great. Linux-powered Air studio + production studio + transmitter-site backup, all sync'd off a central audio/db server with failover. Sweet! Source: about 3 years ago
