Listen & Learn
My mentor Jim Rohn taught me to always do more than you get paid for as an investment in your future.
He said, “Formal education will make you a living, SELF EDUCATION will make you a fortune.”
The best way to become better in radio production is to LISTEN.
So with that mantra in mind, I have scoured the audio server and listed some audio from years gone by. Sure you may have heard it before, but you’ll be listening today with different ears on. The masters of radio production have generously donated their wisdom and creativeness to RadioPromoTips over the years so that you can listen and ‘self-educate’.
There is one caveat … don’t JUST listen … learn, be inspired, then go and implement one trick, one new voice fx, one new mix technique (or anything else that you pick up in the audio below) into what you are building today!
To your continued success. 🙂
