"When we were launching Ireland’s first regional radio station, I had no hesitation in buying Myriad; Scoop and Powerlog."

Myriad's Key Features

Myriad is a playout and automation system designed specifically for use in modern commercial and community radio. Capable of providing live assisted or fully automated programming, Myriad delivers lively, natural sounding radio with as much or as little human input as your station desires.

The Myriad package actually consists of a number of applications to provide all the tools you need to plan, schedule, broadcast and gain feedback on your station but at the heart of it all is the actual Myriad software which is the thing that presenters use in the studio.

Myriad is a deceptively powerful system. Users are instantly drawn to it's intuitive and simple to use interface but beneath it's 'cuddly' exterior, beats the heart of a beast with a plethora of advanced and powerful features making it one of the most used systems in UK radio today. Scratch the surface and you will see that Myriad's depth and flexibility make it the ideal choice for stations of all types and sizes, a fact borne out by the level of diversity of nature of the stations relying on Myriad every day.
