 Local Radio Networks and SMARTS |
Local Radio Networks (LRN) and SMARTS Broadcast Systems are partnering to make delivery of LRN's localized 24/7 music formats compatible with the SMARTS Skylla System and easily available to all SMARTS Skylla affiliates. LRN's Radio Velocity Control (RVC) is a proprietary VPN-based technology that integrates into existing playout and automation systems, while providing 100 percent redundancy, flexible clocks with no mandatory fill positions and a non-compressed music library with a broad variety of songs for each format.
"We're delighted to partner with one of the best automation systems in radio," stated Local Radio Networks CEO Steve Swick. "SMARTS is known for exceptional customer service and state-of-the-art technology with localization capabilities, making them a perfect partner for LRN."
"Music just appears, playlists just appear, current voice tracks just appear -- all on your LRN-programmed Skylla like magic," said SMARTS Software Developer Johnny Schad. "This is the elegant programming design for which radio has been long waiting. Local Radio Networks provides quality music programming with none of the engineering complications or equipment needed for satellite automation. LRN has been an exceptional development partner, and I think our mutual customers can look forward to more features in the future."
