Fordela, a provider of cloud-based media management and monetization offerings, has released the Fordela Platform 4.0, offering robust audio management and secure playlist distribution.

The new platform will allow content creators, distributors and engineers to take full advantage of cloud-based management, presentation and collaboration tools, the company said.

Fordela CEO Jason Deadrich said through their cloud-based system, Fordela’s new audio management tools enable audio consoles to be accessed remotely through any internet-connect device.

"Playlist creation, Virtual Listening Rooms and content collaboration portals are just a few of the new features that our customers have requested for managing and distributing their digital audio files as well as video," said Deadrich.

The Fordela Platform 4.0 includes private and secure audio playlist generation and delivery; auto-detection of metadata based on ID3 tags, album, artist, and composer; batch download and transfer of playlists; custom branding and personalization; online audio previews; and playlist usage reports and analytics.
