Create audio spots from templates

Audio spot templates turn a short script into a studio-quality voice recording — announcements, ads, alerts, and self-updating Time, Weather, and Motivation spots.

    Pick a template type

    You’ll see a card for each spot type, and each one fits a different job:

    Announcement — a quick spoken message ("Now Hiring", "We're Open Late Friday")
    Advertisement — a promo spot with the offer and a call-to-action
    Alert / Breaking — urgent notices that cut through the music
    Time Check — announces the current time and refreshes itself automatically
    Motivation — a rotating motivational line, refreshed hourly
    Weather — a self-updating local weather spot

    Click whichever card matches your goal.

    Write the script and pick a voice

    Type what the spot should say (dynamic templates pre-fill their script), then choose a voice and delivery style. Click Generate and the studio voice renders in a few seconds — hit play to preview.

    Save it to a zone

    Save the spot and it lands as a tile on the current zone, joining that zone’s rotation between songs. Dynamic spots show an auto-refresh badge and keep themselves current on air.

Tips & Common Issues

  • Not sure? Announcement is the safe default for any short spoken message.
  • Keep scripts under 2–3 sentences — short spots keep the music flowing.
  • Dynamic spots (Time, Weather, Motivation) re-record themselves — set them once and forget them.
  • Make several versions of a promo and let the rotation vary them so regulars don’t hear the exact same spot every visit.
