Station Backup & Protection · macOS
Your Worst Nightmare. You put your heart and soul into creating the ultimate radio station setup. Don't lose sleep worrying that all your inspiration and effort will be lost to a hard drive failure. TuneVault keeps watch over every file in your Station folder and quietly backs it up. When disaster strikes, you can easily restore a single file, an entire folder, or your complete station — with safety checks every step of the way.
Why TuneVault
TuneVault gives your TuneTracker station something no other broadcast automation system offers: a dedicated, always-on backup utility designed specially for the way TuneTracker stations work.
TuneVault monitors your entire Station folder using macOS's native file event system. Audio files, program logs, format clocks, voice tracks, settings, scripts — if it changes, TuneVault knows instantly, and backs it up automatically 60 seconds later.
Accidentally deleted a promo? Start typing its name and TuneVault finds it instantly. Check a box, click Restore, and it's back exactly where it was. Need to restore an entire folder? A whole station? TuneVault handles it safely, with full confirmation at every step.
TuneVault runs silently in the menu bar. No popups, no interruptions, no impact on your broadcast. It's completely safe while AutoCast is on the air — backup operations only read your files, never touch your live station.
Feature Overview
Built for broadcast. Designed for peace of mind.
Uses the Mac's unique built-in features to monitor your Station folder's contents. It knows of changes instantly, with zero impact on the processor that's running your radio station. It's MacSmart!

Back up simultaneously to external drives, NAS storage, and cloud-synced folders simultaneously. Each destination runs independently with its own sync settings and restore capabilities.
You'll love this: Start typing a filename and results appear as you type. Search for files or folders. Select individual items or everything at once. Restore with one click.
When the worst happens, TuneVault guides you through a complete station restore with disk space checks, rename-first safety, and multiple confirmation cautionary steps.
Drive disconnected mid-backup? App crashed? No problem. TuneVault checks both timestamps and file sizes, so it knows exactly where to pick things back up.
Close the window and TuneVault keeps working. A small shield icon in your menu bar shows backup status at a glance — animated arrows when backing up, maroon when attention is needed.
Every backup is logged with timestamps, file counts, and per-file detail. Click Details on any entry to see exactly what copied, was updated, or failed.
Destination drive disconnected? Running low on space? TuneVault alerts emails you to let you know. Only one alert is sent per issue, so your email won't get flooded with reports. alert per problem. Automatically cleared when resolved.
Files you've deleted from your main Station folder are still safely available in your TuneVault. Since they can accumulate, we give you an easy way to eliminate old deleted files you're sure you no longer need. The Maintenance tab shows you exactly what's there, how big it is, and lets you reclaim space when you're ready.
TuneVault's automatic process is completely safe. Backups only read from your station — they never modify a single file in your live Station folder.
In addition to constant file by file backups, AutoCast can trigger scheduled "differential" backups daily or even hourly. AutoCast also checks, when launched to make certain TuneVault is running.
