In the past, radiostations used several different devices for playing back audio like cartmachines, CD-players, Minidiscs etc. With the introduction of radio-automation systems, the interior of the radiostudio rapidly changed. These days most radiostations work entirely with advanced computer networks. Many stations operate completely automated or use computers to assist the DJ or engineer. The actual audio comes from computer-controlled CD-changers or harddisks. Although many radiostations saw the advantage of radio-automation systems for their music programming, the jingles are still a different story. In a live broadcast, many stations still use the old cartmachines, crash-sensitive hardware devices or even consumer products to play their jingles, simply because they prefer a separate system for jingles. The only reliable alternatives were highpriced and complicated equipment. With the introduction of JingleBox, that changed. JingleBox is a complete software-based sollution for playing jingles in live broadcasting. JingleBox offers great functionality and is very reliable, yet also easy to understand and easy to work with. JingleBox has now been grown to a complete automation system for any kind of 'additional audio'. Fully automated playout of commercialblocks is also one of its features.

JingleBox was developed by Broadcast Science. Unlike many other broadcast software, JingleBox was designed with a broadcaster's point of view. Many features came directly off the studiofloor. Broadcast Science's programmers have extensive knowledge about on air systems and experience in a broadcast environment. Before a new version of JingleBox enters the market, it will first be tested thoroughly in a real broadcast environment. Most of the extra features introduced after the first market release came from direct feedback from the users. Broadcast Science appreciates your comments on its software.
