[linux-audio-user] scheduling and playback automation

[Richard Green]

I am new(ish) to this list so hello, been listen for a week or so.

 I am looking for a the type of software I found in at 
sharewaremusic.com for scheduling and automation of radio shows. There 
are a few options in the Windows category, but I have found nothing for 
Linux, and nothing GPLd.

I am hoping that such software would be useful for running a stage 
productions audio sound effects, with the sound operatator reading the 
cues from an on-screen running sheet, and triggering the associated sound.

He's the part I need most: If, becuase of the timings of cues, the 
asssociated sounds overlap, they should be mixed together and played 
back though the same output device. Audio samples would be fairly well 
prepared, but a simple way to set the overall playback level of an 
individual same would be ideal. Timing accuracy is not enormously 
important, so ability to work with a low latancy kernel is not 
necessarily a requirement.

Do you know if such an thing exists for Linux?

Thanks

Richard
