KPBJ's Baby Registry

Note from KPBJ:

"Broadcast mixing boards are their own special beast with special queuing features, additional stereo channels, and high quality analog VU meters."

Note from KPBJ:

"We need a rack for our audio processing, emergency broadcast hookup, and a local file server for backing up our archive. We are VERY open to a secondhand option for this item."

Note from KPBJ:

"Broadcast quality vocal processing and pre-amp unit. This helps improve vocal quality and clarity for our hosts."

Note from KPBJ:

"A broadcast profanity delay is used to erase the last few seconds of audio to prevent violation of FCC profanity regulations."

Note from KPBJ:

"An Orban Optimod is an audio processor that applies compression, limiting, and EQ to give your LPFM station a consistent, professional sound while preventing overmodulation and maintaining FCC compliance."

Note from KPBJ:

"We basically need every audio cable ever. Used donations welcome!"

Note from KPBJ:

"We are going to need to build a sophisticated website for streaming, archiving, and managing the schedule. We're planning to open source all software created for KPBJ but we also want to be able to pay a local UX designer what they are worth to help make this happen."

Note from KPBJ:

"We're going to need to purchase an FM transmitter, antenna, transmission line, and audio uplink system, the details of which are highly dependent on our final tower location. In total we expect this equipment to cost around $5000."

Note from KPBJ:

"Music licenses from ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, and SoundExchange legally allow you to play copyrighted songs and cover royalties to songwriters, artists, and labels. We expect to pay $1,870-1,940 annually for these licenses."
