Audio Switchers/Routers
While WireReady can be programmed to switch audio and/or control relays via our programmable CUSTOM command system (RS-232/422/485 ASCII and HEX based protocols), we STRONGLY recommend the Broadcast Tools line of switchers for simple AM/FM stand-alone applications. For larger network facilities, we also recommend and support enterprise level routers and console logic such as SAS.
Broadcast Tools makes a line of switchers scaled to your needs with different input/output configurations. Most stations only need 2 outputs - one for on-air, and one for autorecording. If you need more than one thing being autorecorded and you want it going through a router (as opposed to dedicating specific sound cards just for that channel), go with a 4 output switcher. The number of inputs determines how many audio channels the computer can switch. Our Windows versions can support up to 4 switchers connected to the same computer so if you ever fill up a switcher, you can simply stack another one on.

Please note: The above switchers include BUILT IN GPI relay logic for detecting triggers from your satellite receivers, consoles or wired push button "Remotes." You do not need to purchase a separate GPI device if using one of the above switchers with our 2000/XP based automation software. Control of the switcher is via a single RS-232 (or USB with separately sold adapter) from the onair computer running our software. Switchers also provide operator manual override buttons on the front panel for manual control.
