The Standard in Datacasting.

The Radio Experience

The delivery of radio and audio content continues to evolve across multiple different technologies which enable a rich user experience combining visual content – text, images, contextual data – along with audio.

The Radio Experience – TREplus from Broadcast Electronics is the original and most powerful comprehensive software platform that empowers radio operators to increase engagement with their listeners by managing the delivery of visual content to accompany the audio they are delivering.

TREplus manages data across all the multiple audio delivery methods – Analog FM – RDS, HD Radio®, DAB, streaming, mobile apps, station website……wherever your audio goes.

TREplus allows you to provide an increased connection with your community, adding up-to-date song titles and artists for the music you play, station promotions, news headlines, weather, and local events, and even enables advanced advertising options to deliver new incremental revenue.
