Set up Live Recordings

You can automatically record live audio segments from your radio station with an Omny Studio recording agent. These live recordings can then be manually or automatically published for on-demand distribution. You can see live recordings in progress in a program’s Recordings.

A recording agent can automatically start and stop recordings from cue points in your audio segments. This is further explained in this PDF.

Choose a Recording Agent

There are two types of recording agent:

On-premises in your studio
Live stream

Recording Agent Type	Pros	Cons
On-Premises	You can selectively record microphone or specific audio streams with automatic start/stop on silence. Local buffer is resilient to connectivity issues.	Requires Windows environment with local disk storage. More complex set-up and configuration.
Live stream	Very easy to set up and no maintenance.	Record mixed stream with all audio tracks. Requires accurate metadata timestamps for precise start/stops.
