FAQ
Questions About PE
Do I need to purchase a player to listen to my audio?
No. Personal Edition comes with its own built-in audio player.
Which streaming audio servers does the built-in player work with?
Any Shoutcast or Icecast Server that you install or rent from a streaming audio hosting service.
Can you do live voice tracks with Personal Edition?
No. You could record the tracks as an audio file and then insert it into the schedule where needed.
Where do I store my data?
The data is stored locally (not over a network) and is intended to be stored in the Database folder youselect when you install the program.
Are there any additional licensing fees for Personal Edition?
No. However, you have the option to purchase per-incident support requests.
What happens when new versions of Personal Edition are released? Do I get the new versions?
Yes. You will receive all updates of the major version you purchased. For instance, we release service releases from time-to-time for the software. These are referred to as “sr” numbers; i.e., 6.0sr2. As long as the major number, in this example 6.0, remains the same, you can use Help, Check for Updates to get all service releases for this version. Once 7.0 is released, you would need to purchase an upgrade to get this version.
Can you open more than one copy of Personal Edition at a time?
No.
Can Personal Edition interface with an automation system, import traffic or import files to populate the database?
No. This level of connectivity is introduced as part of our single-station Solo Edition as well as our standard Pro and Client-Server subscriptions.
