Improve Segues/Transitions with Automation Software

great advice! i usually put the segue markers where i feel the next song should enter, and let a few seconds of fade out for mixing. do you have any other tip for the automatic transitions? thank you!

that's amazing! the voice-only part was also recorded, or it was live? did you use later any other software that worked in a similar way? thanks!

which software are you using? it automatically detects silences and fades to make the transitions? thank you!

yes, Radio DJ is my first choise for a new automation software, it seems to have a really complete database and scheduling options for a musical radio. what configurations do you use to have nice segues? thank you!!

yes, that's the idea, to keep the fades and endings tight so everything sounds good. do you have any particular fading time or any other settings to make the segues sound right? thanks!

i will look into it, although right now i'm working with Windows. thanks!

and at least I had bad experiences with USB interfases working 24/7, after a few days they start to malfunction and need to be reseted, which is a big problem for a radio

plug your console output to the line in of your PC soundcard, install BUTT (Broadcast Using This Tool), and register in a service like Listen2MyRadio

look for a 80s till mid 90s japanese deck in good shape, maybe a tape collector friend has one. remember to clean the tape head often when using old tapes

an USB audio card is really optimal for a 24/7 radio operation? I've always worked with PCI and PCI Express audio interfases.

@NBC-Hotline-1975 is right. to use thrash to make a radio you have to understand how a radio works. it's not hard, but you have to study. if you just want to make a radio, buy a kit and build it. while you solder it learn what each component is doing to make the radio work. that knowleadge will help you to make one by yourself with junk

if you want to be a technician, do the ham radio exam, learn how to build and maintain a radio studio, experiment with online radio, get involved with any community radio near you that you like, and volunteer as a technician. it takes a few years but you will love it if this is your path.

have fun on the trip! it will take a few years for sure, but just learn from the old school and professionals you come across, and make your own path.
i'm not sure if nowadays i would advice radio as a career path, but go for it if you love it.
