Myriad Playout 7 to launch at IBC 2026

Broadcast Radio says Myriad Playout 7 will put listener interaction closer to the heart of the studio workflow.

The new version will receive its first public demonstrations at IBC 2026, with a public beta planned for the end of September and full release scheduled for December.

A major feature is an integrated Listener Request workflow, connecting requests from the Broadcast Radio Web Player, Web CMS and mobile apps directly to the live studio and scheduled Log.

Listeners can search for songs or artists, add messages and submit requests, while stations retain control over approval and music rules.

Approved requests can automatically replace designated songs in the Log, with listener messages added as Script Items for presenters. Myriad also checks recent plays and scheduled songs by the same artist before allowing a request to be inserted.

Song Voting will also be built into the studio workflow, allowing listener feedback to appear in the Media Wall and Library and potentially inform future scheduling decisions.

Show and Presenter Management will create reusable show profiles, presenter information, branding and roles, with details available across Myriad, websites, apps, programme guides and third-party outputs.
