Broadcast Radio Ltd. has added AI Voice Links as a feature to its Myriad 6 Playout software. It said these links can be added to station clocks to create automatically generated content that is “log-aware.”
“This innovative addition empowers radio stations to effortlessly generate dynamic content based on predefined ‘goals’ for each link, seamlessly incorporating ‘live’ elements like song and artist information, news, weather and more,” the company said.
“Stations can leverage the built-in AI Voice Link generation technology or enhance link scripts further by tapping into third-party ‘large language’ model services such as ChatGPT. Voice generation is streamlined through the automatic handling of the built-in solution or integration with third-party AI voice generation services like Azure AI Voices and ElevenLabs.”

The company said AI Voice Links can be used to add a second voice to programming elements such as news, time checks and weather.
“Stations can also craft situationally aware AI Voice Links for automated shows that directly reference scheduled and played content, creating a more engaging experience for listeners.”
Options include the blending of pre-written scripts with “live” information and log-aware content featuring multiple voices, emulating the familiar handoff to the news center for headlines and weather.
“Scheduled AI Voice Links can be assigned ‘content goals,’ injecting variety even when the schedule is generated from the same clock. This feature is included in most Myriad 6 Playout licenses as standard and can be further enhanced with third-party voice and script subscriptions.”
The announcement was made by Commercial Director Liam Burke.
