Inside A Radio Station

Virtual Tour

Analog VS. Digital: Today's modern Radio station has moved away from analog recording in favor of digital recording. On top is an old-style analog tape deck which recorded magnetic impulses on recording tape that was fed from left-to-right from reels.

Below, is a digital editor, this one by 360systems. The audio is recorded on a hard drive where it is edited, stored and played back.

For multitrack applications, broadcasters favor newer software tools like CoolEdit (Shareware) and ProTools (Free for MAC or PC).
