What is Raduga?

Raduga is the software that makes radio automation easier.

Raduga lets you create a playlist simply by dragging audio
files from the explorer into the Raduga window. Then you
can rearrange the songs by dragging them with the mouse
from one position to another. When you're finished with
the playlist, turn on your radio equipment, press the play
button and you are on air. That's it.

How to register
This version of Raduga is limited in the way that it does not run longer
than 30 minutes per session and randomly plays a Raduga promo. One minute
before the session expires, you will be warned by a message window.
To get rid of this run-time limitation you need to purchase Raduga.
When ordering Raduga, please indicate your name and optionally the name of
your company. You will receive a license key that will unlock Raduga and
disable the 30-minutes limitation and the Raduga promo. The license key is valid
only for the given name and company.
When you receive your registration key, launch Raduga and select the ”?” drop
Down menu. Choose ”License” and browse to the license file that was sent to you.
