Create Station

Enjoy our simple first login process!

After creating your first server during our onboarding process, you'll immediately set up your first radio station. This station is attached to the server you just created, keeping everything organized.

Don't worry about being locked into one platform! Your server and stations can be used across ANY integration - this selection just helps us optimize your initial setup.

Basic Information:

Station Name: The display name for your radio station (e.g., "Rock FM", "Jazz 88.1", "Night City Radio")

Genre: Define your station's music style (e.g., "Rock, Pop, Jazz, etc."). This helps listeners know what to expect.

Description: Write a brief description of your radio station. What makes it unique? What kind of content will you broadcast?

Technical Configuration

Frequency: Choose a frequency number for immersion (e.g., "88.1", "107.5"). This is especially cool for RP servers where players can "tune in" to different frequencies.

Modulation: Select FM or AM. This is purely aesthetic but adds to the realism!

Server: This will be pre-selected as the server you just created.

Short Name: This is your unique identifier in the SoundMesh system (like a username). It must be:

  • 15 characters max
  • Letters, numbers, hyphens, lowercase and underscores only
  • Globally unique across all SoundMesh stations
Choose your short name carefully - it cannot be changed later! Think of it like choosing a domain name. If you have issues creating a station, this is probably not unique!

Stream URL: Add your radio station's website or community URL (optional). This could be your Discord invite, game server website, or any link you want associated with the station.

Station Logo (Optional)

Upload a logo for your radio station. Recommended size: 256x256px, max file size: 5MB. This will be displayed in-game and on player interfaces.

What Happens Next?

Once you click "Create Station", you'll be taken to your dashboard where you can:

  1. Get your API credentials - For game/discord integration
  2. Quick Overiew - See a glimpse of your acount info and current limits.
  3. System Statius - You can quickly find the status for the SoundMesh platform

Quick Tips

  • Multiple Stations: You can create multiple stations up to your plans limit! This is great for multiple communities or creating genre based stations!
  • Cross-Platform: Remember, even if you selected "FiveM" as your game, you can still use your stations in Discord, on the web, or any other integration
