Broadcast Radio will include guest invites in every Myriad Anywhere Pro package when it releases Myriad Anywhere 7 in December 2026. The company will also make the feature available to Myriad Anywhere 6 users through a free update.
The guest invites function lets stations send a link to temporary contributors so they can join a live audio session. The feature is currently part of the BR Live Plus add-on. Under the new arrangement, Anywhere Pro packages without BR Live Plus will support up to two participants, such as a presenter and a guest. BR Live Plus will continue to support up to five.
The change comes as Myriad Anywhere Pro reaches six years since its full release in December 2020. Broadcast Radio began developing Myriad Anywhere in November 2019, initially focusing on browser-based voice tracking. As the COVID-19 pandemic approached, the company shifted development to help customers work without access to their studios. It released the first Myriad Anywhere Standard versions in March 2020 and offered the service free to customers for the rest of the year.
The company also developed the Myriad Anywhere Tunnel Service to connect station systems to its cloud platform without requiring a VPN, inbound firewall port forwarding or IP address allowlisting. This helped stations operating on university, hospital and corporate networks, where those changes could be difficult to arrange. Later, Myriad Anywhere Pro added real-time Station Log control, content upload and management, and BR Live for two-way audio and off-air communication.
Broadcast Radio reports that users record and upload an average of 46,000 audio items through Myriad Anywhere each month. More than 200 stations run on Myriad Cloud without a physical studio or local playout computers, the company said.
