Platform -> EDGE™ Audio Processor

Broadcast audio processing, built right in.

Wanna sound punchy, polished, and impossible to ignore?
Then give your station the EDGE™
No hardware. No engineering degree. Just one-click.

Included in the Premium plan.

Most stations don't stand out. Yours should.

Many online radio stations share the same invisible problem...

The music's great. The scheduling's tight. The branding looks professional. But when someone tunes in... it sounds flat. Thin. Quiet on some tracks, harsh on others. They just sounds like a playlist on shuffle... not a radio station.

Meanwhile, flip to any flagship commercial station and the difference hits you instantly. Everything sounds louder. Punchier. More alive. Every song sits at the same level. Every voice cuts through. It sounds like radio is supposed to sound! That's not an accident. That's audio processing.

The secret behind that BIG radio sound.

For decades, professional broadcasters have used rack-mounted boxes costing $10,000 or more, from companies like Orban and Omnia to sculpt their sound. It's the secret weapon of pro broadcasters. And until now, it's been locked behind expensive hardware and specialist knowledge.

So we took legacy processing technology and dragged it kicking and screaming into 2026.

The result is EDGE™. Radio.co's own processing technology, built right into your stream and running efficently in the cloud.

Our chain of magic sparkle includes AGC to tame volume swings, multiband-compression to add punch, EQ to shape the tone and limiting to maximise loudness without distortion. All running near real-time on your live stream.

No hardware to buy. No plugins to configure. No audio engineering expertise required. Meaning your station can deliver that big radio sound, but for a fraction of the cost. Works on both live DJs and scheduled playlists.

Enable EDGE on your stream and your station instantly sounds better.

Why does my station restart when I change EDGE settings?
