GLOBAL NETWORK · ANYCAST

Your radio signal, replicated worldwide

Your station does not live on one server: it lives on a network. The signal replicates automatically across datacenters and every listener connects to the nearest node — no distant nodes, no dropouts, even if an entire region fails.

WHY INOVANEX

Broadcasting infrastructure, not just a server

01

Anycast audio CDN

Your signal is served from 24 datacenters via anycast routing: every listener connects to the nearest node, with minimal latency and virtually zero buffering, no matter where they tune in from.

02

Professional in-house panel

You run everything from our own panel: real-time listener stats, source control, scheduling and AutoDJ in an interface built for operators, not beginners. Compatible with Icecast v2 and Shoutcast.

03

24/7 AutoDJ with failover (add-on)

Broadcast around the clock without leaving a PC on. AutoDJ plays your pre-recorded programming and takes over automatically if the live source drops, making sure your station is never silent.

04

Your own mobile apps

Publish your station on Android and iOS under your own brand: schedulable push notifications, floating chat, ChromeCast and AirPlay integration, plus audio, video and social-live support to keep your audience engaged.

05

HTML5 player and encoder

We include an HTML5 player with SSL, live metadata, a schedule widget and Slim, Vertical and Minimal modes. The InStream encoder is included at no cost and works alongside BUTT, Mixxx, OBS, ZaraRadio or Virtual DJ.

06

Migration and 24/7 support

We migrate your existing station white-glove with zero downtime and put it on air for you. After that, specialized 24/7 monitoring and technical support back every broadcast.

HOW YOU START

01

Pick your plan

You choose your plan based on the concurrent listeners and bitrate you need. Activation is immediate once the account is confirmed and we hand over your panel credentials.

02

We configure and migrate

We set up your source and player, plus AutoDJ and apps if you add them. If you are already broadcasting, we migrate your station white-glove without your audience noticing the switch.

03

You go live, we operate

You broadcast while we monitor the infrastructure 24/7. You scale your plan or add features as your audience grows, with no locked-in contracts.

HOW IT WORKS

How radio streaming works, plain and simple

01

Icecast v2 and Shoutcast server

Your encoder connects to a dedicated streaming server running Icecast v2 (and Shoutcast if you need it). It works with any software: BUTT, RadioDJ, Zara, Mixxx, Virtual DJ, OBS, SAM Broadcaster or the included InStream encoder. "Now playing" metadata reaches the player and the apps.

02

AAC at 128 kbps and HLS for every device

Every plan streams up to 128 kbps AAC, FM quality at half the data of MP3: one hour of listening is about 57 MB. The signal leaves through the anycast CDN in 24 datacenters and also in HLS, the format used by apps, modern browsers and smart speakers.

03

AutoDJ and fallback: never dead air

If the studio drops, AutoDJ takes over with your music and pre-recorded shows, and returns to live when you reconnect. With dual-node redundancy the stream keeps going even if an entire server fails. Real-time and per-show listener statistics.

YOUR STATION ON THE PHONE

Your own app is what keeps listeners coming back

An icon on the phone, push notifications for shows and news, background playback, Chromecast and AirPlay. INOVANEX designs the app under your brand and publishes it on Google Play and the App Store; one app serves your station and your channel, and it can be added to any plan from the configurator.

Frequently asked questions about radio streaming

How many simultaneous listeners does it support?

From hundreds to thousands of concurrent listeners depending on the plan, served by an anycast audio CDN across 24 datacenters. In production we sustain +570,000 concurrent listeners, and we scale your capacity as your audience grows.

Which control panel will I use?

You operate with our own panel, the most complete and robust on the market: real-time stats, source control, AutoDJ and scheduling. It is compatible with Icecast v2 and Shoutcast, so any standard encoder connects without friction.

What is AutoDJ and why do I need it?

AutoDJ plays your pre-recorded content so you broadcast 24/7 without leaving a PC on. It also acts as failover: if your live source drops, it takes over automatically so your station is never silent.

Can I have mobile apps with my own brand?

Yes. We build Android and iOS apps with your identity, including push notifications, floating chat, ChromeCast and AirPlay. We recommend defining them from the start so they integrate with your broadcast from day one.

Can I migrate my station without going off air?

Yes. We run the migration white-glove with zero downtime: we prepare your station on our infrastructure and switch over transparently, with no transition noticeable to your audience.

What if I have a problem after hours?

Your broadcast is monitored and backed by specialized 24/7 technical support, 365 days a year. The service also runs under a 99.998% SLA measured with compensation, so we stand behind your station's real availability.

How much does radio streaming cost?

It depends on how many simultaneous listeners you need: plans go from 500 to 5,000 listeners, all with 128 kbps AAC, no transfer charges and our own panel. Prices are published in ARS, USD and EUR; you can see them in the configurator on this page and order right away.

Icecast or Shoutcast? Which one should I use?

Both work and both are included. Icecast v2 is the current standard: it supports AAC+, HTTPS and "now playing" metadata natively, and it is what modern apps and players use. Shoutcast is there for older encoders or directories that require it. Any encoder connects: BUTT, RadioDJ, Zara, Mixxx, Virtual DJ, OBS, SAM Broadcaster, Winamp.

What bitrate should an online radio use?

128 kbps AAC is FM quality and it is included in every plan. One hour of listening uses about 57 MB, less than a short video. If your audience listens mostly on mobile data you can broadcast at 64 or 96 kbps AAC from the same panel; AAC sounds better than MP3 at the same bitrate.

Do I need my own server or technical knowledge?

No. The streaming server, player, statistics and backup are already operated by INOVANEX. You only connect your encoder with the details we give you, or upload your music to AutoDJ. If you come from another provider, we migrate you without going off air.

Can I broadcast from my phone or on location?

Yes. Any iOS or Android encoder app that supports Icecast or Shoutcast connects to your server with the same details. For mobile and outdoor broadcasts use 64 or 96 kbps AAC and keep AutoDJ on as a fallback: if the connection drops, the station stays on air by itself.

Will my station show up on Google?

Yes. Every station streaming with INOVANEX gets, at no cost, a public page at inovanex.com/radios/ with its player, details and schedule, indexable by Google for searches like "your station live". The HTML5 player also embeds on your own site with SSL.

Do you offer a money-back guarantee?

Yes. Monthly plans carry a 7-day guarantee and annual plans a 30-day guarantee, counted from activation. If the service does not work for you as expected, request the refund by ticket within that period. Domain registration and payment-processor fees are not included. Full details are in the terms and conditions.
