The automation database is a set of data tables referred to as the XStudio Database. These tables store tasks, actions, the external resources used by tasks, scheduled events, song title and artist information, and broadcast log historical information.
If your use of XStudio requires an audio switcher, the need to perform automated tasks like updating a switcher or playing breaks in a satellite format, or the use of scheduled events, you will be working with one or more of the data tables.
