Introduction
AUDICOM-14 Black Edition is a suite of tools designed for management and automation of radio stations and audiovisual media.Its modular and flexible design allows adaptation to workflows in both small stations and large media operations with multiple studios.
Models
Audicom Black
Version designed for traditional radio stations (without video content).- Integrates the Admicom commercial scheduling module, which manages advertising orders, schedule certification and live mention auditing (PNT).
- Enables centralized management of radio networks, linking remote stations via streaming and synchronizing content through the Internet.
- Publishes content on multiple platforms: on-air broadcasting, web streaming, podcasts and streaming links with smart metadata.
- Metadata allows linking remote stations via Internet or VPN, generating differentiated commercial breaks and local IDs.
Audicom Black Video
Designed for audiovisual media and Internet broadcasting.- Incorporates Audicom Video Composer, a video switcher with integrated graphics generator for studio camera control.
- Supports HD video playback in all modules, combining sources like cameras, Skype, Zoom and graphics.
- The AutoVJ module automates camera direction based on microphone signals received from the on-air console, freeing the operator from this task.
- AV Composer encodes and generates audio and video streaming, transmitting to servers for distribution on different platforms.
- This technology allows media outlets to expand and compete in the digital environment without requiring major structural changes or costs.
Integrated Management
Audicom is not just an audio and video playout system, but covers all production and operation levels of a broadcast station.On-air Audio and Video Management

Production
Commercial Management
- The Admicom Traffic and Billing module manages the client and agency database, contracts, commercial break distribution and daily schedule generation.
- Allows auditing of aired spots, generating client reports and exporting spreadsheets for external management systems.
- In stations with lower commercial load, scheduling can be managed manually through playlists.
Comprehensive Content Management
- Daily 24-hour programming is organized in CyberPlay Editor, which covers all events: commercial blocks, live mentions, live segments, breaking news or remote content.
- The system operates continuously, even without on-site assistance.
Automated Music Programming
- AutoDJ offers an advanced AI-based music programming system.
- Unlike systems that generate random playlists, it analyzes each song’s characteristics to select music in real-time, adjusting to commercial breaks, news or other priority events.
- Allows defining time segments with customized music criteria.
- Music can be presented with pre-recorded announcements inserted at intro, outro or intermediate points of songs.
- In future versions, these announcements can be generated directly with AI voices without requiring pre-recordings.
