Middleware software to interface VJ Pro system with third party radio playout.

Simulcasting Radio on a TV channel

RADIO is the most flexible and resilient medium. Both the traditional and the digital media markets are competitive, but Radio has a unique chance to increase its share, thanking to Visual Radio. Simulcasting Radio on a TV channel is a new frontier that allows stations to conquer a better reach into homes, casting to television sets, and into malls, feeding large monitors. Being Radio the king of media for mobility, Visual Radio strengthens stations where needed, at fixed locations.Visual Radio means that your station can be seen. Radio programming and shows will be aired simultaneously both on Radio and TV without bearing the costs and efforts required by a traditional TV production. It is possible to run a Visual Radio with the same technical staff and talent used at the base station. Radio does not need to change its workflow or its equipment. There is no need for TV expertise, near zero cost for TV production and it is a one-time minimum investment.VJ-PRO by AXEL TECH can be interfaced to any On-Air Radio system and to any digital mixing console.
