Studio Nearly Read To Go LIVE

Kieran (our ITS contact / starfm server admin) and myself have spent a fair amount of today sorting out the STAR studio in order to go on air on Monday. We've made a bit of a major change to the studio in that we no loger span two rooms. This works out much better for those on-air with less possibility of interruption.

Secondly, we've installed the new microphones and stands. We're now actually using broadcast mics and angelpoise stands. Less noise and better quailty than what we used to have.

Thirdly, we're reassigning some of the machines. The current music server is to loose this service to the playout system locally. However this change will NOT be made until after the Orientation broadcast. What will change is this machine will be used for web browsing / e-mail. That is what I will be spending tomorrow sorting out.

Ah well, after all this effort, we should sound much better.

Oh, I might actually take some pics for you lonely anoraks when I'm their tomorrow.
