Finding, listening to and favoring radio stations

In the bottom left of Audials, you can adjust the quality of radio stations. For example, Audials can display only stations that play full songs.

To find stations that interest you, you can enter them directly in the Radio view. Alternatively, select a genre and/or a country, and Audials will show you suitable stations.

To favor a station, click its three-dot menu and choose Favor.

You can create several favorites lists by clicking on Edit favorites, for example for music of different moods or genres.

Each favorites list gets its own color and is marked with a star. If you open one of them, you will be shown suggestions for stations with similar music.

Record radio

To start recording a station, click the round recording symbol. As soon as the next song plays on the radio, Audials will begin recording. This way, multiple stations can be recorded simultaneously.

Audials will save each song as a separate audio file. As soon as Audials is finished with a song, it will appear in Music -> My Music.

To start a continuous radio recording, click on the station’s context menu and select Record show.

Recording up to 100 stations parallelly

If you want to record a huge amount of songs of a genre and/or country, the mass recording will be the optimal method.

1. Select a genre, and if necessary, a country in the left column. Click Mass Recording.

2. Now set whether Audials should stop after a certain number of songs and how many stations should be recorded at the same time.

3. You can see the finished recordings in Music -> My Music.

Schedule recordings

Audials can start the recording automatically at a previously specified time, regardless of whether it is a one-off or at regular intervals.

1. Click on a station’s three-dot menu and select Create scheduled recording.

2. In the next window, select the start and end of the recording and specify how often it should start.

3. As soon as Audials is done with recording, the audio files will appear in Music -> My Music.

Important Questions & Tips

Audials does not display stations with music similar to my favorites.

You probably deactivated this feature at some point. We explain how to activate it on this page.

After recording from the radio, all my genres got mixed up.

To avoid this in the future, there is a button in the bottom center: Genre for Radio Recordings. If all the stations you want to record belong to one genre, enter it there beforehand, and Audials will assign all recordings to this genre.
