The Tryphon PigeBox is based on Free Software, its management interface too. We want these projects to be opened and user oriented.

Your first contribution to Free Software could be a simple suggestion.

We thank people who have already found few minutes to share their feedback, questions (or cheers).

Like our other products, a user forum is dedicated to the PigeBox. You can share a suggestion in few seconds.

Chunks

As the PigeBox records continuously your broadcast, you just have to come and retrieve the needed chunks.

At any time, you can extract a complete radio show, a short chronicle or one of the guest’s answers to rebroadcast or upload it.

Our PigeBox is installed in your studio. It is 9:04 p.m and the guest of the 8 p.m show would like to go back home with an audio record ?

A click, select the right time et create the chunk :

Give your PigeBox a few seconds to extract the 600MB required by our request and :

You just have to download the file and copy it on a nice branded USB (with your radio station logo) before giving it to your guest.

Temporal labels

Thinks are not always so simple. How to find, for example, the beginning of a chronique or a guest’s intervention ? It always happens something on your station, but you need to find the “right moment”.

The PigeBox offers you a simple and innovative solution. It records the events of your broadcast. When a music or a jingle starts, when microphones are opened, a temporal label can be created. With their helps, you will be able to find the right extract in the twinkling of an eye :

These labels allow you to define the begin and the end of a chunck. In the context of our previous example :

You need to select a piece of a guest’s intervention. Fortunately, the events from your automation software and your mixer created automatic labels. The presenter (or the producer) created few manual labels during the show. You just jave to select the begin label :

Next, choose the end label and the chunk is now ready to be created :

After this small tour of the PigeBox interface, it’s time to test now.
