How to broadcast Live with Web DJ streamer on Azuracast Panel?

Updated 2 min read

Updated: 22 October 2026 · Applies to: AzuraCast, the built-in WebDJ tool

AzuraCast lets you create multiple DJ accounts and broadcast live audio to your listeners through its browser-based WebDJ tool, keeping a broadcast history for each DJ.

Set up a DJ account

  1. Log in to your AzuraCast panel.
  2. Go to Streamer/DJ Accounts and click Add Streamer.
  3. Enter the streamer username, streamer password, and the display name to show for this DJ.
  4. Save the new streamer account.

Broadcast live with WebDJ

  1. Go to the WebDJ section; it opens in a new window with the WebDJ interface.
  2. You will see several panels: Settings, Playlist 1, Playlist 2, Mixer, CUE, and Microphone.
    • Playlist 1 and Playlist 2: load any number of music files to play from.
    • Mixer: switch between the two playlists.
    • CUE: lets you listen to a track privately while you are already live on air.
  3. Enter your DJ username and password to connect; once connected, you are live on air.

That is the whole process: create the streamer account once, then use WebDJ from any browser whenever you want to broadcast live.

Because WebDJ runs entirely in the browser, you can go live from any computer with a microphone and an internet connection, without installing separate broadcasting software such as a standalone encoder. Each DJ account's broadcast history is tracked separately, so you can see who went live and when, even with several DJs sharing one station.
