Help · Setup walkthroughs

Get every app set up, step by step.

Pick an app below to expand a walkthrough. Do the Studio Clock first — most of the other apps need it configured before they have anything to talk to. New to the suite? Read the About page first.

  1. 1

    Sign in on the studio machine

    Open Studio Clock and sign in with the account you want this studio to use. Every other tool that talks to this studio must sign in with the same account.

  2. 2

    Pick this machine's role

    Open settings (⚙) and set the role. The studio machine should be Master — it broadcasts state to every other device. Other machines (newsroom, talkback) can be set to Follow-Master or Local.

  3. 3

    Pick your audio inputs

    Still in settings, choose the device input(s) you want monitored for DTMF tones. The VU meters appear once a device is selected.

  4. 4

    Add your lamps

    In the Lamps section add the lamps you need (ON AIR, MIC LIVE, NEWS, OPT OUT, etc.), give them colours, and pick whether they live in the Recording column or the On Air column.

  5. 5

    Add DTMF triggers and jingles

    Add your DTMF codes, attach a jingle to each, and (if you split the network) set per-location jingles. Optional: tick Subtone backup to add a redundant inaudible pilot tone for each trigger.

  6. 6

    Add network feeds (optional)

    If this studio carries a network, add the network base feed and any location splits. The master's triggers and jingles will sync to every signed-in machine.
