Myriad Playout & Automation
The team at P Squared have been developing playout
and automation systems for more than a decade and our flagship
playout system, Myriad, is now one of the most used systems in the
UK today with more than 300 active sites relying on the software on
a daily basis.
Myriad is generally used to playout the majority of
the audio output of any given station with music, jingles, adverts,
voice links and re-recorded audio items stored on the Myriad system, available for playback in a number of different ways from any
Myriad workstation.
One of the most important factors in Myriad's
success has been the flexibility that the system offers. Whether you
want to run your station as a 'free choice' station with presenters
free to browse your audio catalogue and play what they like, a 'live
assist' station where a pre-selected schedule is available for the presenter
to work with, or a full automated service, Myriad will do the job for
you. You can also mix and match these styles to meet your stations
needs. Another important factor is Myriad's ease of
use. Because Myriad is used at all levels of radio, the cross
section of people using the system is diverse to say the least. With
this in mind, Myriad has been designed to be usable in seconds with
virtually no training. This almost instant accessibility has enabled
Myriad to be successfully implemented at stations of all sizes
regardless of previous experience or technical ability levels. As
user's confidence grows they are then able to explore Myriad's more
advanced features so whilst Myriad is simple to use from day one, it
does not compromise on power. No matter what you
station type or size, Myriad provides all the tools you need to
plan, schedule and deliver world class radio.
