Hello Larry: SPL works on hourly playlists which you may create by hand or whose automation you may achieve using another software they offer called Creator. You can include spots, time whether, etc and you can use quick keys to insert short messages, such as station or program identification, etc.
You could talk over whatever is playing by merely pressing a key. If you do your program live to a few stations, you can encode the signal and stream it to the servers simultaneously, while at the same time, you record what you are transmitting. If you merely want to record your program and edit the audio, adding to it everything else you need, it is an overkill. In that case you could record with any number of programs, like Total Recorder, Soundforge, Gold Wave, Audacity, or digital recorders, later edit it with another large number of programs, such as Total Recorder, Soundforge, Gold Wave or Audacity, and finally, upload it to as many stations you want, using FTP or SFTP.

As was kindly suggested earlier in this thread, I have taken a look at Station Playlist and it looks like an amazing automation package, at least according to the testimonials posted on their website. I didn't see a lot of software description by the developers themselves, but maybe I was looking in the wrong place. The information that I could find on Station Playlist lead to the following concern. Since I will be recording a show and delivering it to subscribing Internet stations in a yet to be determined format, how would station playlist benefit me. I'm sure it would, as I've seen it mentioned here before. But thus far I've been unable to discover how it can play a role in my project, as I will be marketing a show rather than launching an Internet station.. Undoubtedly I'm missing something. So feel free to set me straight. Any thoughts are welcomed and appreciated.
