RADIO EQUIPMENT

In order for us to be successful in making our radio newscast , me and my team experimented with various radio equipment  , which Session Singer Mr. Mckintosh revealed to us.
EQUIPMENT :
  Directional microphone
A directional microphone is one that picks up sound from a certain direction or a number of directions , dependending on the model involved.










The omnidirectional microphone is a type that picks up sound from every direction. This is a very good all-purpose microphone used when there is no need to discriminate where the sound is coming from. This type of directional microphone is very common in recording studios and even on stages where all sound is trying to be captured. Such a directional microphone can also pick up ambient sounds, which may also be desired, depending on the type of recording or broadcast being done.


We also used a pop-shield filter , which is basically a filter that gets rid of explosive pop noises for microphones and is typically used in studios.
