Planning
- Clocks are dead
Megamix brings revolution in radio
scheduling and replaces
the out-of-date ’clocks’
with something very modern and flexible:
with the plans. Instead of having 24
clocks per day, now you have unlimited
possibilities of segregating a day. Plans
are based on day, on week or on month, this
way you have complete flexibility and
diversity for each day. Each plan consists
of various objects and based on the plan
Megamix will create you schedule (playlist
of the day).

allows you to manage all these data.
-
RDS Manager

song.

Objects
Each object executes
internally an activity and returns us always
a result. This result is a collection from
media. The object is made up various orders
from you, for example a filter object can
return us as result a combination of songs
from the ‘90s that are fast, are in the rock
category and have male artist. The objects
are used for the plans. Each plan contains
different objects and a schedule is created
based on a plan.

to anything else you can imagine.

HASH
for each media
Forget media duplicates! Each media has a
unique number which is calculated with HASH
algorithm. If you try to import media with
another name but with the same sound, the
program will understand it and will not
import the same media.
-
Users Roles
Restrict system access to
authorized users. Within a radio, roles are
created for various job functions. The
permissions to perform certain operations
('permissions') are assigned to specific
roles. Members of radio staff are assigned
particular roles, and through those roles
acquire the permissions to perform
particular system functions. Since users are
not assigned permissions directly, but only
acquire them through their role (or roles),
management of individual user rights becomes
a matter of simply assigning the appropriate
roles to the user, which simplifies common
operations such as adding a user, or
changing a user's department.
