NOTE: You can connect live up to 5 minutes before the live event window opens. This allows your DJ to test their connection.

First things first. A broadcaster is a program on your computer that lets you connect to your online radio station and broadcast live. There are several broadcasters to choose from like Mixxx and Virtual DJ.

But for Windows and Mac, getting started we suggest BUTT. It's simple, easy to use, and works seamlessly with Radio.co. Or if you're looking for something different, there are dozens to choose from.

With BUTT, you can connect and broadcast live in minutes without any technical mumbo-jumbo. Just sign-in to your Radio.co account, connect to your station, and reach your listeners.

Once downloaded, login using your Radio.co account details, then choose your station. There are a few options in terms of what you want to broadcast. Once sorted, connect and you'll be broadcasting live to your station.

For a full rundown of how to use the Radio.co Broadcast, check out the help guide.

When using BUTT, you have the option to Login with Radio.co to automatically add your station.

If you're using a different broadcasting app, or wish to add your details to BUTT manually you can find your connection details on the Live Broadcast bar towards the right side. Click the 🔗 button.

By default the newer connection details are displayed (dj.radio.co). If you experience compatibility issues you can switch to the older details using the toggle.

If you have any further questions, please do reach out to us using the messenger, or by emailing help@radio.co.
