XStudio 3350

The XStudio documentation includes some words, terms, abbreviations or perhaps industry-specific

"jargon" that may not be meaningful or perfectly clear to you. The table includes entries that may need

additional explanation or definition, listed alphabetically.

Term

Meaning

.DAF or DAF

Refers to the generic type of audio file supported by XStudio. This

type of file was originally created by Computer Concepts Corporation,

Lenexa, KS, and is the file name extension used by the DCS and

Maestro audio systems, also created and sold by Computer

Concepts. DAF files consist of a small "header" that contains a

description, start and end dates for the audio, distribution

information, and a digital Aux Mark among other things.

apt-X

Refers to a loss-less audio encoding (data reduction) method and

one of the types of audio files supported for playback in XStudio. The

apt-X name is trademarked.

Audio Clipboard

Refers to the control on the XStudio main display used for

constructing a list of audio items to play on an ad hoc basis. See the

topic on Using the Audio Clipboard for more information.

Auto-Segue

Also [Auto] button on primary playback channel. Refers to

automatically sequencing audio items (carts) on the broadcast log,

moving from one item to the next as Aux Mark or EOM of playing

item is reached. Auto-Segue is enabled when the [Auto] button is

down, disabled when the button is up.

Automatic Backfill

Refers to a technique of automatically adding audio content to a

satellite programming break to meet the required length of the break

when the scheduled content on the log sums to less time than the

required length. XStudio does not offer this feature.

Aux Mark

Refers to a digital "mark" on an audio file, similar to traditional

secondary tones on broadcast tape decks, either reel-to-reel and

tape cartridge types. This mark is used to signal the beginning of the

end of audio playback. It is used as a trigger point to begin playing

another audio item, if applicable. This results in overlap of audio - the

remaining portion of the audio that is finishing plus the beginning of

the newly-started audio item are mixed 1-to-1 to ensure a smooth

sound with no dead air.

Break

Shorthand for "commercial break" or "stopset". The term is most

often used when referring to commercial content played back on-

demand as part of a satellite-driven format. The term has over time

been broadened to refer to a group of audio elements (carts) played

in sequence, where the content might not necessarily be just

commercials.

Cart

Refers to an audio file, also called an audio item. The term originated

with the introduction of tape cartridge machines in radio. These

cartridges, similar in appearance to 8-track tape cartridges, were

referred to in shorthand as a "cart". Prior to the introduction of

computer-based hard-disk audio delivery systems such as XStudio,

tape cartridge machines were ubiquitous in radio stations and the
