Every other remote broadcast tool treats your co-hosts as guests on a video call. Ether hands every host the whole board — decks, mics, schedule, cart wall, voice tracker — from whatever city they log in from. One studio. Every control. Everybody.
RCS Zetta and WideOrbit cost $10–60K per year and ship to a control room. Riverside and StreamYard were built for podcasts, not radio. Ether is the first studio designed for the reality of independent broadcasting in 2026 — distributed teams, mixed content, real schedules.
Six independent channels you assign on the fly. Decks for music, mics for hosts, channels for remote guests, carts for stings.
Each remote co-host opens a browser link. Video and audio stream over WebRTC straight into your broadcast mixer. Sub-second latency, no third-party service.
Open a URL. Pair once with a 6-digit code. Now you can record breaks, intros, and outros from anywhere — kitchen, car, hotel room — and they appear in the studio's inbox the instant you hit upload.
Same scheduling architecture the big stations use — Zetta, NexGen, MusicMaster — without the licensing fees or the consultant hire. And when a song plays, you can see exactly why the scheduler picked it.
Cut a promo, build a sweeper, master a podcast — without leaving Ether. Eight tracks, regions, fades, EQ, compression, and a master limiter.
A floating master rack with a real 10-band graphic EQ and a live FFT spectrum analyzer — the same pro hardware workflow, built into Ether. Drag it anywhere, snap it to a corner, keep it open while you mix.
Type a script, get broadcast-ready voiceover. Use your own ElevenLabs voice clone, OpenAI's built-in voices, or your computer's free Web Speech voices. Drop the result straight into rotation.

Listeners in cars want RDS. TuneIn needs its own feed. Your stream provider wants Icecast admin. Your in-house dashboard wants a webhook. Ether fans every song-change out to all of them — in parallel.
Every play is logged automatically. Every EAS test gets recorded. Every scheduled slot is reconciled against what actually aired. Export the format your PRO, your traffic system, or the FCC expects.
College groups, LPFM clusters, AM/FM combos — Ether runs multiple stations side by side, each with its own library, schedule, logs, and reports. Total data isolation. One install, any number of signals.
Start free. Upgrade when you need cloud sync, multi-station, or voice tracking.
Free Station-tier access forever, in exchange for honest feedback and a short testimonial when you're ready. We're especially interested in college stations, LPFMs, internet-only, and anyone escaping Zetta, GSelector, or Wide Orbit.
