ABSTRACT

This chapter is a composite of material from previous editions of the NAB Engineering Handbook combined with updated information from professionals in the field of audio production facility design and implementation. The first part of the chapter draws on the authors’ long experiences both as designers and end users of radio and television audio facilities, and the subjects presented are those that should not be overlooked. The latter part of the chapter addresses the implementation of radio facilities on a limited budget. It also provides some sample facility floor plans for small, medium, and larger radio stations.
