The problem

Why station workflows
still get messy

Most scheduling tools are built around simple weekly repeats, but real stations run rotating shows, monthly specials, one-off edits, and last-minute changes

Live shows, pre-records, playlists, and stream relays often end up managed in different places

Small schedule mistakes can lead to silence, wrong playback, or a show cutting off at the wrong moment

Every content type can be scheduled from the same station calendar

Event controls, fallbacks, filters, and issue checks help stations catch problems before airtime

RadioCult supports real-world repeating rules, event overrides, and flexible calendar views for how stations actually program content

What's inside

What Scheduling includes

Scheduling helps stations plan, adjust, and monitor programming from one calendar, whether the schedule is simple, rotating, or full of edge cases.

A calendar built for station programming

Plan your station visually instead of typing every time slot into forms. RadioCult supports different calendar views so managers can work at the level that fits the moment.

  • Drag-and-drop schedule editor with day, week, and month views
  • Event descriptions, colours, and linked artists or presenters
  • Down-to-the-minute start and end times
  • Live shows, pre-records, playlists, and stream relays on one calendar

Repeating rules for real radio schedules

Not every show happens every Monday at the same time. RadioCult supports recurring patterns that match real station programming, from weekly shows to more unusual rotations.

  • Daily, weekly, and monthly recurrence
  • Complex rules like “every 3rd Thursday”
  • Multi-week patterns such as “every 6 weeks on Monday and Tuesday”
  • One-off changes without breaking the full series

Event controls for smoother playback

Each event can carry the details and playback rules needed to keep the stream sounding right. Stations can control how shows start, what happens if content runs long, and what plays if something is missing.

  • Intros per event from a file or tag
  • Overrun support with configurable limits
  • Loop or fallback choices when media is shorter than the event
  • Event recording for archive, replay, or podcast use

Schedule checks before problems go live

As stations add more shows, presenters, and content, it gets harder to spot issues manually. RadioCult helps teams filter the schedule and find missing setup details before they become on-air problems.

  • Filter by name, status, and event type
  • Filter by error state, including missing media or empty playlists
  • Find events with intros, recordings, fallbacks, or overruns
  • Filter by tags, artists, or missing metadata
How it works

How
Scheduling works

Four straightforward stages — from setup to ongoing improvement.

01 — Step

Plan

Build your schedule visually using day, week, or month views. Add live shows, pre-records, playlists, and stream relays to the same calendar.

02 — Step

Repeat

Set recurring patterns that match your station's programming. Use simple daily or weekly rules, or create more specific rotations for monthly shows, specials, and unusual schedules.

03 — Step

Adjust

Edit one event without changing the full series, add intros, set fallback behavior, allow overruns, or decide whether an event should be recorded.

04 — Step

Check

Use filters to review upcoming programming, find missing media, check event settings, and spot schedule issues before they affect the stream.

Day to day

What this supports day to day

Scheduling helps stations spend less time fixing calendars and more time building the programming, community, and sound that make the station worth tuning into.

More flexible planning for rotating shows, specials, and recurring programming

Fewer schedule gaps, missed starts, and playback surprises

Clearer programming workflows for station managers, DJs, and contributors
