The CDS32 line of radio automation and playout systems was first introduced by Pristine Systems Corp. in 2002, over 17 years ago. All CDS32 systems operate on the Microsoft WindowsXP operating system which enjoyed a long lifespan.

April 8, 2014, Microsoft stopped providing security updates and technical support for Windows XP. Security updates patched vulnerabilities that may be exploited by malware and help keep users and their data safe. PCs running Windows XP are no longer protected. It is important that you migrate to a current supported operating system, such as Windows 10 or 11, so you will receive regular security updates to protect your computer from malicious attacks and loss of income.

Beginning January 31, 2020, Pristine Systems will no longer support CDS32. Due to the lack of support from Microsoft Corporation on the operating system, industry standards improvements, and anti-virus support, Pristine Systems will no longer support CDS32 as of January 31, 2020. Current CDS32 users covered by our support programs are eligible for automation system upgrades to Pristine's Studio64 for Microsoft Windows 11 PRO 64 bit. CDS32 users who are not on our support program should contact Kevin Loper (kevin@pristinesys.com) for their options to rejoin our support program and update their system(s) to the Studio 64 platform.
