ff produce a commercial for an advert for a radio station, we require professional equipment, software and a soundproof room to produces these products for internally within the radio station or through a production house. The main equipment's you need for this type of production is a microphone, professional audio editing software, voice booth, speakers etc. The voice booth is an important kit for recording commercials as it will block out any background noise that will interfere with any voice recordings.
Here is a picture of a recording studio where it includes a computer for editing audio, a mixer to bring in and out audio, a voice booth to block any unwanted background noise, speakers, audio processor to process audio in to FM/AM and a microphone.
For our college radio station, E6 Radio, we have a professional standard radio production room that is equipped with a professional recording kit, a sound mixing board which enables us to edit audio and to play multiple tracks at the same time and three audio editing software which are Reaper, Adobe Audition and Audacity. But we normally concentrate on Reaper and Adobe Audition as these software's enables us to have the ability to edit with multiple tracks where i can have sound effects, a song and my audio recording to be edited on one project. Reaper is an easier software to use for students like us as it is a very straight forward program and once you get to grip with the software, you will find everything easy to navigate and edit. As for Adobe Audition, it is a more complicated software as it has many controls and they use many technical terms which i do not understand as i think you will require training on this software and it is used more in a through a production house. For when we are making a advert in college, we are supplied with a list of songs which we have paid to have a licence to so we dont breach any copyrights.
aFor when we want to use any sound effects in our advert, we also have a folder provides us with pre recorded sound effects where they don't have any copyrights on these audio clips so we don't breach any regulations
But if we wanted to use a song which isn't in the library, we are aware that there is a "7 second rule" where i can use any song for 7 seconds or less without breaching any copyright laws.
