Your insight into what's going on inside Broadcast Radio
Welcome to the Broadcast Radio blog.
We often get asked questions about where Broadcast Radio came from, who is in the team and what we have planned for the future. We also have some support related questions that regularly crop up so we thought that we would address both with a new Blog section on our website with contributions from across the entire Broadcast Radio team.
Over the coming weeks and months we will add posts from from all departments and on a wide variety of topics including:
- Myriad 5 Playout - Tips, tricks and latest the news about our flagship playout system
- Latest Hardware - Both Broadcast Radio hardware and other exciting technology from around the industry
- Support Gems - Some common questions answered or interesting challenges we have encountered
- Software Development News - Hear about the latest projects from our development team
- Guest Blogs - We will also invite valued customers to contribute their experiences
So remember to check back regularly or subscribe to our RSS feed.
If you have any ideas you would like us to cover in a future Blog post then just let us know.

Make Myriad Your Own with Dynamic Layouts in Myriad 7 No two radio stations work in exactly the same way. Even within the same station, what a breakfast presenter needs on screen can be very different from the information needed by a producer, newsreader or presenter hosting a listener request show. That is where Dynamic Layouts in Myriad 7 come in. Dynamic Layouts allow you to customise the Myriad Playout workspace, deciding what information and tools are displayed, where they appear and how much screen space they are given. You can create multiple layouts for different workflows and switch between them whenever you need.

Myriad Playout 7.1 introduces direct support for Elgato Stream Deck, giving presenters and operators another flexible way to control the features they use most often. Stream Deck provides a bank of customisable physical buttons, each with its own display. With the new Myriad Playout 7 plugin, those buttons can be assigned directly to Myriad actions, creating a control layout tailored to the way you work

Radio’s greatest strength has always been its people. Presenters give a station its personality, build familiarity and help listeners feel part of a shared community. The new Presenter and Show Management features in Myriad Playout 7 are designed to strengthen that connection. They give stations a central place to manage the information behind their programmes and on-air talent, publish relevant content across listener-facing platforms and create more natural, consistent AI Voice Links.
