SUMMARY:Presenter Training - Sound Design for Radio Shows
DESCRIPTION:In this interactive presentation & workshop\, Craig Schuftan shows you how to create themes\, stings\, IDs & other audio elements that will make your show sound fantastic. While working at triple j in the early 2000’s\, Craig created hundreds of signature sounds for iconic shows like Jay & the Doctor\, Hack\, Today Today (The Chaser)\, This Sporting Life\, & Top Shelf with Robbie Buck. His approach has always been very DIY – focusing on good ideas\, great music choices & original voices rather than expensive gear & flashy sound effects. A veteran of community radio himself\, & a big fan of independent broadcasting\, Craig wants to show you how creative sound design can expand your expressive palette as a presenter\, & make your listeners feel transported & delighted when they tune in to your show. \n– with Craig Schuftan   \nPlease RSVP to laura.cady@mainfm.net

SUMMARY:Presenter Training - Converting Vinyl LPs to functional digital albums & batch conversion in Audacity
DESCRIPTION:Converting vinyl records to digital albums can make programming a show much more convenient via ZaraRadio. If you can play vinyl in the studio & record to PC 2\, you can digitise an LP\, but this leaves you with a roughly 45 minute audio file. Using Audacity & Windows Media Player\, learn you how to split the recording into individual tracks & enter the correct metadata so that the ripped LP behaves just like a digital album. You’ll also learn a fast\, simple way to convert a large batch of audio files into MP3 using Audacity. \n– with Dave (Rock Solid Foundation) \nPlease RSVP to laura.cady@mainfm.net
