Stinger

Instant Replay Audio

Stinger Stinger provides instant playback of up to 288 audio files at the touch of a button!

Customer Comment: My Jox are really happy that I got the program, they are taking it like a duck to water. It is adding another dimension to their shows and also giving them the tools to step up a level.

Stinger is far less expensive than any of those "instant audio" hardware boxes, but has much more capability and versatility.

Stinger is perfect for fast-paced morning shows, DJs that want to add a bit of spice to their shows, stadium announcers, audio production directors, cat-walk shows, theatre groups, corporate presentations... the list goes on!

Stinger was designed by broadcast professionals with years of experience, as a creative tool for the playback of short-length effects, drop-ins, liners, jingles and other audio elements. With a native DirectSound audio card Stinger will overlap multiple files - even on many 'domestic' grade sound-cards.

Up to 288 audio cuts are instantly available, each with a user-defined background color and caption making it easy to find the right buttons. There's no scrolling through a tiny view Window, Stinger will resize to the size of your PC monitor.

You can save multiple collections of audio files (or individual sets) for Instant Recall - so each daypart or production can have their own buttons.

Stinger is touch-screen compatible or can be operated from the keyboard, or mouse.

Features

  • Tabbed interface for 288 instantly available files
  • Microsoft DirectSound support for multiple file playback on a single native DirectSound compliant audio card
  • Uses standard audio card and hard drive(s)
  • Compatible with Windows linear PCM and compressed audio file types, including MP3
  • Assignable Audio Output Device
  • Sizable screen and buttons
  • User defined captions (and button colors) without changing audio files
  • Instant Save and Recall of button sets and collections
  • Drag 'n Drop of multiple files to tabbed windows
  • Support for long file names (though we recommended using the 8.3 format)
  • Optional USB Hardware key for easy portability between computers

Requirements:

Stinger will run on a wide variety of platforms - anything from a PIII, 700Mhz machine should be suitable. However, for reliable 24/7 operation we recommend using a Pentium 4 CPU with 1Gb of RAM running Windows XP Pro SP2. SATA hard drives, while not essential, will increase performance. A USB slot is required for the Hardware Key version.
