Gather RequirementsDetermine The Available SpaceEquipment SelectionRoom & Acoustics DesignCosting & BudgetingTimelineFurther Consultation and ApprovalOrderingConstructionEquipment InstallationBefore you do anything else you need to work out what you require from the final product Work backwards from the content you intend to produce and then figure out what your content creators need to get them there Consider these questions to kick start this process 1 How many people need to have a position in the studio and what will their roles be? 2 How many microphones? 3 Will the panel operator also need a microphone? 4 Which positions need headphone controls? 5 What feed does each headphone need to hear? 6 Which positions need computers? 7 How big do your announcers need the computer screens to be? 8 What playback devices do you need? PC? CD? Minidisk? Tape? Turntable? External inputs? 9 Will a phone system be required? 10 What style of phone calls will you be doing? Talkback? Interviews? Prerecords only? What type of phone system do you need to facilitate this style of calls? 11 Do you need a separate recording bus? 12 What sight lines do you need between peop With your requirements firmly in place you can now determine what size space you will need to put the studio in Perhaps you are already limited in this area and do not have the luxury of building the room from scratch That’s fine but make sure the various stakeholders recognise this limitation before you enter the design phase to avoid disappointment This is my favourite part selecting the equipment This is very important and there are so many choices to be made The requirements of the studio will determine a few factors (such as the number of inputs number of mix minuses etc) However there is also a lot which is up to you and what you are comfortable with Remember there is a lot more to a studio than the console and microphones Here is a list of some equipment you need to consider 1 Audio Console 2 Computers for playback and/or editing 3 Computers for general purpose work 4 Microphones 5 Microphone stands 6 Microphone mounts 7 Keyboards and mice 8 On air light 9 Headphone amplifier 10 Headphone source selector 11 Distribution amplifier 12 Phone system (and associated handsets hybrids computers line interfaces and controllers) 13 Computer monitors 14 TV screens 15 Clocks 16 Talkback/Intercom system 17 KVM Extenders (to keep the noisy computers out of your quiet studio) 18 Delegation switcher 19 Now you know how much space you have to work with and the size of all of the equipment you can work on the design of the room Getting the ergonomics correct is very important Remember your announcers are probably going to spend a lot of their time in here every week so it’s worth designing a practical and comfortable studio for them Pay special attention to the sight lines between all of the announcer positions as well as any outside producer/call screener positions Also consider the positioning of monitors As with usual office ergonomics you should try and make sure the top of your main computer monitors are at eye level as to promote good posture Soundproofing and acoustics isn’t for the weak of heart I’m not going to pretend to be an expert here but as a starting point think about having multiple layers of plasterboard raised and isolated flooring building ‘rooms with rooms’ lots of insulation and no parallel walls Also don’t let your door let you down – make su All throughout your project you need to be conscious of your budget There is no point getting to this stage and realising you have blown right bast your original budget expectations However this is the time to ensure your project is well and truly within budget Remember to account for all of the little items – these all add up and catch you by surprise as you do the build Have you considered all of the carpet furniture acoustics format converter boxes data cabling KVM extenders rack shelves and the like? Go through your design and check everything is accounted for Develop a detailed timeline of the project from here on in List every aspect of the build and who is required to do it It’s worth using a Gantt Chart to ensure the dependancies are all accounted for A chart such as this will help you communicate to the team how any delays in their area will push everything else back You have your designs quotes budgets and timelines Now you need to go to your management or board to seek final approval It is best to go over it with them using a fine tooth comb to ensure there has been no miscommunication in the process If possible have CAD drawings ready to show how it will look Also ensure they are fine with things such as the input list – are they all happy there are no turntables accounted for? Time to place your orders with suppliers Hopefully the previous couple of steps haven’t taken too long and seen a substantial change in the exchange rate The key pieces of equipment will also probably be the most expensive so start ordering those first to get them locked in It’s time to start your build Of course you need to start by building the physical room This should go without saying but I have seen people install equipment before finishing the construction – this resulted in a big mess that takes much longer to resolve Simple things such as doing the painting before the carpet goes down makes a difference here Also make sure infrastructure items such as air conditioning and data cabling are put in as a part of this physical construction phase You’re now ready to drop your equipment into place wire it up and get it running Ensure you document it as you go especially if there is analog wiring in the project.
