Virtual On Air Light
Get the look and function of a classic studio on air light using software and screens you already have.
What is a virtual on air light?
A virtual on air light is a browser-based recording status display that behaves like traditional hardware: bright, simple, and always visible. OnAirSign.live turns any screen into that indicator without wiring, bulbs, or wall mounts.
- Red ON AIR state and clear OFF AIR state on any device.
- Control from your dashboard on phone, laptop, or tablet.
- Place displays in hallways, control rooms, or outside studio doors.
How to create a virtual on air light
- Create your OnAirSign.live account and open your viewer link on a screen.
- Position the screen where your team or household will see it.
- Toggle ON AIR when recording starts and OFF AIR when you wrap.
- Optionally customize labels on Pro for terms like LIVE or IN SESSION.
Hardware look, software flexibility
Physical on air lights are great, but they are fixed in one place. A virtual on air light can be duplicated across multiple rooms, resized to any screen, and updated instantly as your workflow changes.
