Instant Record and Replay

PDF Manual

Stinger 3.1 provides instant playback of up to 1152 audio files at the touch of a button!

Stinger 3.1 has a new record functionality that is as easy to use as its playback feature.

Stinger 3.1 is far less expensive than any of those “instant audio” hardware boxes, but has much more capability and versatility.

Stinger 3.1 is perfect for fast-paced morning shows, DJs that want to add a bit of spice to their shows, stadium announcers, audio production directors, cat-walk shows, theatre groups, corporate presentations… the list goes on!

Stinger 3.1 was designed by broadcast professionals with years of experience, as a creative tool for the playback and recording of short-length effects, drop-ins, liners, jingles and other audio elements.Stinger 3.1 can play multiple files at the same time on a single audio card, or on up to 6 outputs on multi-channel audio cards (requires a native DirectX audio card on Windows XP, or a WDM audio card on Windows 7 or above).

Up to 1152 audio cuts are instantly available, each with a user-defined background color and caption making it easy to find the right buttons. There’s no scrolling through a tiny view Window, Stinger will resize to the size of your PC monitor.

You can save multiple collections of audio files (or individual sets) for Instant Recall – so each daypart or production can have their own buttons.

Stinger 3.1 is touch-screen compatible or can be operated from the keyboard, or mouse.

With support for dual monitors, Stinger 3.1 is capable of having up to 144 buttons on-screen at any one time.

System Requirement

Stinger 3.1 will run on a wide variety of platforms – anything from a Core 2 Duo, 1.8Ghz machine should be suitable. However, for reliable 24/7 operation we recommend using a Core i5 CPU with 4Gb of RAM running Windows 7, 8/8.1, or 10, 32bit or 64bit. SATA disk-based hard drives have proven to be the most reliable. A USB slot is required for the Hardware Key version.

Stinger 3.1 and later will run on Windows XP, but will use the legacy audio engine, which does not have all the features available that the new audio engine affords.

Systems running Windows 7, 8/8.1, or 10, 32bit or 64bit, will use the new audio engine, and therefore are the recomended platforms.
