When my 3 hours of training were up I moved to the production studio in the adjoining room and previewed music in there for 2 hours, using the same system as the On-Air studio. Yeah, it was sick. Vinyl is especially cool. I feel much more connected to the music by playing vinyl than CDs and very much more than mp3s, plus you can play it faster or slower than intended or drop the needle randomly or spin it manually or start and stop it with the speakers 'on' to create that "slow down time in a movie" sound or "speed time back up in a movie" sound. It's a lot of fun.

Very cool. Did I ever tell you that I was on the radio when I was in college? Now, just don't follow your uncle's path any further and also get kicked off the radio for crimes against the FCC.

ReplyDeleteWhat did you do?
Well, it was the college radio station at Franklin and they had this list of songs that you couldn't play, which led to me doing a top ten list countdown where I played them all. Then there were the fictious contests where we would run where we gave away things we didn't have, which required people to answer the phone with lots of profanity to qualify. I'm sure there were other crimes, but those are the ones that jump out.
