    For the instrumental there would've been another way. Wave inversion. Basically you load both the complete jingletrack and acapella track in audiition and wave invert the acapella. maybe results owuld've been better. Just an idea.

    Love the video. My Dad has been in radio since I was born 53 years ago, later owning his own company that owned and operated stations. I love live radio as well, and hate voice tracking with a passion. I also hate when the FCC changed the laws on ownership, allowing people like CC to come in and ruin everything.

    I KNEW EXACTLY what I wanted to do for a living when I was 4 years old growing up in the Willamette Valley of Oregon. When I was a freshman in high school, a board op job fell in my lap (right place, right time). I ran the board for Traliblazer, Seahawks, and Oregon games at my station as well as producing local high school sports broadcasts. That was the COOLEST job a young high schooler could have and it was all mine! Now I call local high school football, basketball, and baseball in a different location of Oregon and I LOVE IT! I wish this could be my full-time gig but I won’t give it up until I’m forced out!

    Is a god story Jeff and my guess is that voice tracking will never go away. Here in The Netherlands only the BIG commercial radio stations pay their morning crew a million Euros per year or more. The national public stations are paying their dj’s enormous figures of our taxpayers money. And the small local and inter local stations can’t pay anything or even less than that. They work with volunteers, they get a volunteer’s fee. And yes, these stations can only survive with help of voice track programs! I think that in a few decades there will be 60% less radio stations as we know them since the 50s or 60s. My children never listen to the “normal” radio, they listen to Spotify or other streaming providers. So let’s enjoy the stations while they are still here. Before you know…… they are gone 😢🥴

    • @RadioDJDude
      @RadioDJDude 11 днів тому

      Wow, interesting perspective from The Netherlands. Sadly, it's true. The day will come when the FM band isn't as crowded. BUT, in some markets, I've seen underperforming stations change hands to foreign language programming. Some foreign govs actually pay a bundle to transmit content in their language. You could see more of that as traditional FMs start failing.

    Well in American economics it might sounds ridiculous but for me 300 USD a month for a 4 hours voice track shift 6 days a week sounds really good. I've always done radio "for free" on local and comunity station because those station only runs minimum commercial so can't operate while paying the hosts. But with this system you have to get a good team, otherwhise the project becomes less interesting. Where I'm from, only national radio presenters gets paid.

I went into Internet Radio back in 2001 when I was told bluntly "Blind people can't succeed in rsdio. We (The state government) refuse to pay for that training and education for you" They did not see Social media coming into existence with stations actually needing to do it and have people coordinate and moderate it which I successfully did for almost ten years for Country music websites.

    The Buggles said that "video" killed the radio star but it was actually radio station automation software and voice tracking. THAT is what truly KILLED the "radio star". Kids today, don't even know what a "DJ" is (or was). I doubt there's a kid out there that even owns a "radio". Why would they have a "radio"? Their phone is their "radio". They don't listen to "radio", they listen to their Spotify playlists on their smartphones. Radio DJ Dude, you and I are relics of the past. Back in the day, It was a lot of fun, but our time in the sun has passed us by. Gramps Radio was started solely to promote conservative Republican politics and Republican candidates (AND because it was fun playing radio DJ again.) Gramps Radio will cease streaming after the November election. In my head, I'm hearing Peter Griffin say "Oh My GOD! WHO The Hell CARES!" I've read that about $400 to $500 a month is pretty standard pay for remote voice tracking a 5 hour shift, five days a week. If you spend no more than one hour, voice tracking each shift, (about 24 hours per month) that would come out to an hourly rate of about $16.67 to $20.83 per hour, pre-tax, gross wages. Something like that would be fine for someone looking to supplement their Social Security Retirement income. That would be US! :) Voice track "two" stations, working only two hours a day, Monday through Friday, and pick up an extra grand per month!

BUT, if I were 67, and the shock therapy didn't work to eradicate my need for radio, then maybe I would consider $500/mo to track a show. NOT $300, though. I'll get back to you in 13 years. 🤣

      Perhaps my optimism overtook my realism. :) You're right. It's scarily good now...give it 10 minutes. BUT, early on, I think it still needs some hand holding to insure "broadcast worthy" content. (Whatever that is anymore??)

    Ok now I have to wonder; For someone who really likes the sound of their own voice, loves people, loves their community in an average sized metropolitan area, what about all news stations, as compared to the Johnny Fever crowd?

    • @RadioDJDude

      Good question! In 2024, news/talk radio stations face different challenges compared to music stations. Both formats are struggling with audience fragmentation and competition from digital platforms like streaming services and podcasts, but the impact is more pronounced for news talk radio. To me, they need to prioritize localization & and a good digital presence. BUT, it's rough out there for all Radio Pimps!

    Omg I've been watching your channel since you kicked off your UA-cam channel in fact we emailed a bit about my company starting a station geared towards Cincinnati. Anyway this cast has to be the best WFKU bit I've heard you do. Since I've gotten older I don't care what other folks think if I blast them if they deserve it. Seriously that shit was funny, on Monday I'll have everyone in the office crying laughing cause we will toss this up on our wall monitor. Keep up the great work brother

    DJ Jeff spittin' FACTS! Listen up from another OLD timer - formats come, formats go - the only thing that matters is what YOU bring to the airwaves. THAT'S the only thing YOU can control! Like Bruce Lee once said - "Be like water, my friend." Stay flexible, go with the flow, control the things you can (YOU), and let go of what you can't (every-freakin'-thing else!) You'll be happier in the long run and stand a better chance of staying employed - ESPECIALLY these days!

    Do you know of a place (or more places) where to find either free or afordable jingle / imagening packs for download. I find that going through alot of different sites to download one sound effect here and one there, is very time consuming. And also if you're not carefull, you risk having sort messy sounding jingles, that lacks sort of an overall soundtheme, if you know what I mean.

    • @RadioDJDude

      Hi Lars! I hear you re. a consistent, uniform sound with your imaging elements. Envato.com has a bunch of radio imaging packs with similar sounding sound effects. As for sung generic jingles, check out jinglesamplers.com. Best!

    Some might see this as a new frosting on an old cake but I appreciate it. When I launch I want to choose six voices and use them in four hour blocks for short reads like these. For somewhat longer reads leading up to a track or covering opinion or a recent or historical event use a somewhat high energy instrumental bed at low volume and put strategic pauses in the read for impact and flavor but NO DUCKING in the music bed, just keep it low. These things allow you to create a running personality for each voice to the extent that you could even give each voice it's own on air name. At the 4 hour you could create a sort of dj handoff AI convo. Listeners will fall in love with these "people."

      Sounds like a fun idea! Have you checked out Notebook LM from Google? They have a male and female voice that converses with each other. Sounds incredibly authentic. Perhaps they can be prompted to have a :30 sec chat about a particular subject. Could be interesting...

    I2 years ago was my last on-air gig on UK radio. Do I miss it, of course I do, I always said doing a radio show is the most fun you can have in a room all by yourself - almost. I remember being contorted like an octopus on this fader and that button, so exciting to be tight hitting the vocal with a dry jingle, the thrill LOL. I was the only jock to go to News on-time, yes, can you believe it? It's all over the place now, but maybe all-over-the-place is how they want it so let 'em get on with it. When they wheeled in the computers, was it the 90s? They changed radio forever. Not the same at all. This will amuse American jocks, over heeeere, a 'break' is an ad break, and 'bit' is what you did to your wife last night and she has a bruise now. For us Brits, a 'link' is that time when you talk inbetween songs ('bit'), you're the link between one song and another. I rocked-the-mic like a crazy nutter for many years. Now? I can't bear to even listen to that drivel. I must have grown up. Yeah that's it. In any case, I have one of those dark-brown voices, you know, mid-mornings, sexy, mellow (stop it) love shows, imaging, ads. I also produced ads and imaging for a ton of stations. Still do some VO jobs myself.
