NextKast Integrations

MusicOne is music scheduling software for radio stations, built so Music Directors spend their time on the music, not on fixing logs. Every song in a category gets the spins it was planned for, none overplayed and none underplayed, and songs move through the dayparts as planned. When no song fits without breaking a rule, MusicOne stops and asks the Music Director instead of leaving an empty slot, so the schedule is ready to air with nothing to fix. It learns which songs are hard to place and gives them priority. Unbreakable rules protect the sound and breakable rules shape the flow (tempo, gender and sound code spread). Every rule shows a flexibility score measured on the station's own library, so the Music Director sees which rules leave room and which fight the music. A 14-day rotation prediction shows what adding or removing songs will do before it happens. Format clocks, day formats, production categories, linked intros and outros, and voice-track numbering are built in. MusicOne Cloud runs in any browser and in a phone and tablet app, with live multi-user editing and several stations in one account. CloudSync, a small app on the studio computer, delivers each log to the station's automation software, with deep integrations for PlayoutONE, PlayIt Live and NextKast. Libraries import from the station's current scheduler or a CSV file. There is one plan for internet radio and one for broadcast radio, from $49 and $99 per station per month, billed annually, with setup help and phone support included and a 30-day free trial with no credit card. Designed by Steve Warren, who has worked in radio since 1964 and created Music 1, the first music scheduler for Windows, in 1994.

PlayoutONE is Aiir’s radio automation platform designed to make studio and remote broadcasting faster, simpler, and more flexible. The system gives stations one easy-to-use screen for managing logs, audio, metadata, voice tracking, segues, quick keys, and media search. Its built-in Media Editor lets users make cuts, add fades, set cues, manage durations, and apply date limits. The Segue Editor helps presenters preview, record, and confirm voice tracks while adjusting transitions, tempo, and volume envelopes. Quick Keys provide instant access to beds, sound effects, commands, and other audio items across unlimited pages. PlayoutONE works with major scheduling tools and lets music and traffic logs merge independently so stations can keep commercial copy current without disrupting other changes. WebVT allows browser-based remote broadcasting, voice tracking, local audio playback, station audio playback, and live log control. LiveMIC supports live location broadcasting with low-latency studio feeds, microphone controls, and audio ducking. By combining automation, editing, scheduling compatibility, remote broadcasting, backup tools, metadata delivery, streaming support, and multi-station scalability, PlayoutONE helps radio teams run reliable broadcast operations.
