Description

Flashlog 8 is configurable, ultra powerful multi-channel logging software. It makes use of separate Sonifex hardware (sound and radio capture cards) to provide a host of logging features on a single PC platform. It can record from analogue and digital line inputs, IP based line inputs (Axia™, Wheatstone™ or Dante™), from the Sonifex radio capture cards and internet radio streams. Up to 2 years of radio broadcasts or audio can be logged, depending on available hardware.

When also using the Sonifex PC-DAB DAB+ multi-ensemble PCIe Radcap card, the software records the entire contents of up to four ensembles. Decoding occurs during playback, showing DLS text, MOT slide shows and electronic programme guides along with the audio.

But DAB+ isn't all you get with Flashlog 8. By using suitable hardware, Flashlog 8 has the ability to record up to 64 stereo line channels, 32 stereo FM stations, 32 AM stations, 4 DAB+ ensembles and 32 internet radio streams, limited only by the number of PCIe slots on the motherboard that you use. (See later for the PC-RACK units that can be used with Flashlog 8 software).

The number of HDD logging days can be independently set for each line, AM or FM channel, and for each DAB+ ensemble. Archiving also allows parallel recording of selected channels to a permanent archive location on the network, either continuously or on selected days and time ranges. All text fields are Unicode-based, allowing multilingual display and entry. Playback on both the logger and through Flashback 8 supports saving log extracts as MP3 as well as WAV, WMA and AVI files.

Features:

  • Analogue, AES-3, Axia Livewire™, Wheatstone Wheatnet™ and Audinate Dante™ IP line inputs supported (Note separate proprietary drivers needed from the IP audio suppliers).
  • Up to 64 stereo inputs supported, each reconfigurable as a pair of mono inputs.
  • Up to four assignable line sub-categories for grouping channels.
  • Selectable audio compression rates ranging from 80kbps to lossless.
  • Adjustable no. of logging days per input.
  • Recording time of up to two years, settable on each channel or ensemble (dependent on no. of channels, audio compression rate or HDD size).
  • Operates on 64-bit Microsoft Windows™ 7/8.1/10 Professional operating system.
  • Network playback using free Flashback 8 application (also compatible with Flashlog 5, 6 and 7 recorders).
  • SNMP monitoring and alarms, including RDS / DLS text.
  • Optional skimming control inputs supported.
  • Live input monitoring on logger unit.
  • Selectable audio failure alarms.
