This is the jingle we used for the radio show. It consists of
three different sounds which were all used together to make a jingle. We had a defined sound that faded out and taken over with beats of two other tracks that we fitted in together.
This is the start of the radio show. It begins
with the end of a song, Thunder by Imagine Dragons. The song comes to a gradual end fading out, while the presenter begins speaking in slowly getting slightly louder.
During the radio show, there is a call-in.
We edited the caller’s recording to sound like the voice calling in from a phone. We went into the filters and edited the highpass filter to give the recording this phone-like sound. These are our layers in the radio edit, which allowed us to achieve multiple things. Firstly, it makes the editing process much quicker and easier. Every clip we have is on it’s own named track, meaning we can easily find one section of the show. Secondly, we can use these multiple tracks to edit each piece individually without changing other sections. For example, if the end of a song track goes over the start of the dialogue, changing the volume on the song to get quieter gradually would be impossible if both the sources were on the same track, Having the on seperate tracks means we could edit each one individually to get our desired result. Again, we used this with the listeners call-in section. If the presenter voice and the caller files were on the same track, we would have hat to edit each call in section separately. Having them on different tracks mean we could apply the effect to that whole track, and the callers voice it all it would change.
On the top track you can see
our soundbed for the listener call-in segment. We have set the volume of this track very low since it’s only there to be heard in the background and not to distract the listeners from the talking. The second track shows the presenter dialogue which has small volume dips to hide small blips of distortion. Below this is the listeners call-in which has the distortion effect on it. Lastly is the buzzer sound effect since the listener got the question wrong.
