P-Layer

P‑Layer provides a macOS‑based environment for running an internet radio station or small broadcast outlet. It lets users assemble playlists, schedule rotations, and apply a smart crossfade engine that detects silence and adds compression for smoother transitions. Integrated with Icecast and Shoutcast, the app streams MP3 audio with real‑time metadata updates and includes a command system for starting or stopping streams directly from the playlist.

The software supports voice‑tracking features, allowing intro voice tracks to be overlaid on song beginnings and recording of voice breaks for later insertion. Users can generate 24‑hour music lineups automatically using rotator logic and category‑based scheduling, while an on‑air scheduler manages ads, promos, and jingles within a broadcast clock.

Its interface is designed to be clean and focused, offering drag‑and‑drop playlist building, folder‑based library organization, and an optional clock display for monitoring current and upcoming tracks. The tool targets broadcasting enthusiasts and small stations that need a compact, macOS‑only solution for live streaming and automated programming.
