Imaging Remote Broadcasts
What? Yes, you can create awesome imaging for remotes,, But, if you still use the antiquated Marti broadcast equipment, You really should invest in a couple of things and jump into the 21st Century.. Seriously, I talked to a guy the other day who is in a small market and does on average 3 to 4 remotes a week from all over the countryside. So here’s what you need to invest some of your 2009 budget in.
A. A laptop with Windows XP (if you can) and then get Adobe Audition or your favorite audio daw editor (Soundforge, etc)
B. A great USB Powered Mic or ZOOM H2 or H3 Digital Recorder
C. A wireless broadband card.
Your record your breaks, edit them down to the timed length you need and have a 30 or 40 music beds from your prod library already loaded in the laptop, mix it down and email it to yourself via gmail or some other email program. Your board op then opens the same email program at the station and plays it back. The quality is incredible, it will sound like your right there with no drop off, hiss, or any other drop outs that we all have expericenced with Martis Trust me!!, your clients will like it, you’ll like it and it will make you more money in the long run. Questions, just ask me and I’ll be more than happy to help
