1. Production Facilities
Radio commercials will need to be produced in either a professional radio studio internally
such as Capital and they will need all the resources and software needed to make it
completely independently and to a high quality. They can also be outsourced from a
production house by hiring their studio and you may even pay them to edit it for you, write
scripts and even cast voice actors and provide many other services such as the company
below:
Obviously you will also have to insure that either studio you use whether it’s a production
house or the radio station you have the right equipment and software to achieve a high
quality advert such as; high quality microphones (so the voice sounds the highest quality
and there is no background noise to the recording) , soundproofed voice booth (to keep
external sounds to a minimum and keep the internal sounds to a high quality), editing
workstation and software (reaper, audacity for piecing the commercial together and starting
to combine each aspect such as sound effects, voice, music and so forth and making sure
the levels achieve are on balance and the volume of the commercial is fairly consistent). This
company provides studios for the production of radio commercials:

2. Also when making the advertisement the studio will need to have a production music library
to use for the advert to make the commercial more memorable and dynamic, you also have
to ensure that there will be no copyright issues with the music used by ensuring the music
played is royalty free our studio has a library of music that is completely copyright free as it
was purchased and downloaded legally and is only used to within college grounds, here is
the library:

3. Pre-recorded sound effects may also be needed in the studio used to achieve a high
standard commercial so they will also need a library of them to make the advert more
interesting and maybe even humorous. We have one in our studio too.
The editing software we use in college and have accsess to is audacity, reaper and audition to edit
different projects to a proffessional level. We use them for the projects that involve audio usually;
podcasts, radio work or interviews. Reaper is a digital audio workstation software: a complete
multitrack audio and MIDI recording, editing, processing, mixing, and mastering environment.
Reaper works with almost any hardware and can be used in combination with a vast universe of
other software and plug-ins. When I created my jingles for last years radio work I used audactiy to
edit the sound clips and voice.

4. Audacity is a free, easy-to-use, multi-track audio editor and recorder for Windows, Mac OS
X, GNU/Linux and other operating systems. The interface is translated into many languages.
You can use Audacity to: Record live audio., Record computer playback on any Windows
Vista or later machine, Convert tapes and records into digital recordings or CDs, Edit WAV,
AIFF, FLAC, MP2, MP3 or Ogg Vorbis sound files, AC3, M4A/M4R (AAC), WMA and other
formats supported using optional libraries, Cut, copy, splice or mix sounds together,
Numerous effects including change the speed or pitch of a recording. I haven’t used this for
my college work yet.
