Music 1 Releases Traffic 1

Music 1 CEO Steve Warren (pictured) has announced the release of his company’s Version 7 music scheduler which now includes a full-function Traffic & Billing system.

Mr Warren says, “This is a radio industry first, one software application that schedules everything; music, jingles, voice tracks, automation system commands and macros and now schedules traffic and does the billing, as well.

“While  the demands and requirements of traffic and billing are quite different from music scheduling, we’ve learned much over the years about how to build software for radio that performs complex functions but is also logical, easy to understand and use.

 “We realise traffic & billing is the single most critical software in the building and stations are naturally reluctant to make a change, so of course Music 1 Version 7 retains its ability to import advertising schedules generated by other traffic & billing software and to then deliver a fully-merged log file to the automation playout system. We play well with others,” says Mr Warren.

The Music 1/Traffic 1 package is being introduced with aggressive pricing for terrestrial broadcast stations and the company is offering affordable rates for webcasters.
