AudioRack is an open-source radio broadcast automation and live assist system for Mac OS X computers.

The system is composed of three major components (see diagram below):

1. arserver – faceless (daemon) eight bus audio server
2. AudioRack – User interface
3. database server (MySQL 4.x supported)

Optionally, audio files can reside on a separate file server, making a fourth component.

arserver supports eight players which can play any QuickTime supported audio file format or play through from an audio input device. arserver also supports a single “playlist” which when automation is enabled, is kept filled with either singly scheduled items (inserts) or items from the most recently scheduled playlist rotation.

Recordings can be set up to start and finish at a specific time as well. Shoutcast streams are automatically updated with the metadata info from the currently playing item. arserver also supports midi machine control for start/stop/skip-back/skip-ahead controls on it’s input device players. And a 15 second broadcast delay in included too. For cueing/control room muting, arserver supports up to three mute busses and a cue mute bus.
