The Villanueva University of Madrid has more than four decades of experience in training people and professionals. Villanueva University has always emphasised the great importance of the imparting practical knowledge for its students, and to this end has implemented two complete radio studios at its campus, that more than 3,000 students have passed through since 2000. For the automation of its broadcasts, the University equipped its studios with AEQ's automation system, first Mar4Win and then migrating it to the AudioPLUS version. "Not only were we surprised by the ease with which the students adapted to Mar4win, but what we liked most about the new Audioplus automation system was its stability and its great features in terms of audio management”. AEQ AudioPLUS incorporates tools for manual, automatic and remote-controlled playout, automatic programming of music and advertising, as well as content generation and editing. Designed for Windows operating systems and SQL Server databases, it has a simple self-installation wizard, is compatible with low-cost audio cards and has complementary editing and management tools.
In addition, AEQ will launch this year the integration of this automation system with the brand's new Visual Radio application, VisualRplus, which allows to launch macros in it from objects included in the AudioPlus playlist or in instant button templates. These macros can, among other things, trigger video clips related to files in the playlist, or images, or focus a camera on a point of interest, for example a talent, and launch it on air.
The great stability and simplicity involved in mastering has been the main reason to put our trust in AEQ technology and its team to migrate from the previous system to the current one, keeping the infrastructure we had (4 computers located in the two radio studio controls, both connected through a continuity server), supported by the excellent support received from AEQ technicians, explains Mr. Muncharaz. For last, Mario Muncharaz concludes that "its operation is simple and more agile, such as the export of objects or the possibility of ingesting material in our own managers directly from a pen-drive by simply dragging them to the manager".
