Summary
SUPERSEDED BY FLASHLOG 8
Live Broadcast Capture Now with DAB+ also offers Direct Input, AM & FM Channels!
Digital radio is here, and Flashlog 7 is ready to meet all your logging requirements. Using Innes Corporation’s own DAB+ radio capture cards, this latest hard disc logger records the entire contents of up to four ensembles. Decoding occurs during playback, showing DLS text, MOT slide shows, broadcast websites, electronic programme guides and traffic reports along with the audio.
But DAB+ isn’t all you get with Flashlog 7. Taking advantage of today’s powerful multi-core processors and growing hard disc capacities, Flashlog 7 pushes back the barriers on traditional line and radio capture logging with the ability to record up to twelve stereo line channels, thirty-two stereo FM stations, thirty-two AM stations and/or four DAB+ ensembles, limited only by the number of PCI slots on the motherboard.
