Educators can use Live Radio to motivate learners, inspire reluctant writers and improve speaking & listening skills. You could produce a live show set in time like Centurion Radio, or Pyramid FM, encourage young people to interview famous people in character of the time. Use themed learning opportunities to study alongside national celebrations - Citizenship Week, or National Reading Week. The BBC's News School Report is a perfect example, a national day of celebration for journalism and broadcasting. Bring the community into school with text-in numbers and live telephone calls, encourage young people to make adverts and sell air-time to local enterprise businesses.

The Anderton Tiger Broadcaster Desktop We have created the lowest cost digital turnkey product available in the world so that more of you can benefit from the thrill of live broadcasting. Our unique approach of having the computer do all of the complex mixing has enabled us to offer incredible functionality at this amazing low cost. No other School Radio provider has attempted this. Without exception, everyone else prefers to deliver commercially available software. With us, you start with a system that has been created from the ground up for inexperienced broadcasters. The Desktop can be easily upgraded as your capability and resources permit, you can build your system up into a brilliant fully specified Dual Studio School Radio Station without compromising your previous investment. Flight cases can be purchased separately saving you cost if you don't need to regularly move your Broadcaster Desktop at first.

We've been building Radio Stations since 2009 and our customers have experienced an incredibly high level of reliability with our own specialised Industrial PC and Digital Sound Control Centre. Unlike anyone else we boot from a solid state hard drive (SSD) into Windows 7 Ultimate, this is the "top spec" version of Windows 7 and is designed for this sort of HD. Don't settle for anything less. Our system is exceptionally quick and will have your system up and running in a few seconds. The Twin Disk RAID 1 500GB Hard Disk Array will ensure your jingles and music files remain backed up at all times and stored on two independent drives. Not one of our existing customers has lost a file through a single hard disk failure. The Wide Touch Screen is a joy to work with, it has increased screen real-estate that we have been able to use to bring more functionality at a lower cost. The ON AIR and MIC LIVE lights are shown on-screen, an external dual illuminated sign is available as a cost option and is available as standard with a Studio Guest Pack. Every possible upgrade path has been considered so we can provide you with an effective way of growing your system when resources permit.

The M-Audio AC30 Desktop Monitor Speakers are small and surprisingly powerful rated at 15w each. As you would expect with any sophisticated broadcasting solution, these speakers are automatically muted when a microphone channel is opened. Two pairs of the XPX2000 DJ Headphones are included as standard, they are chunky, sound amazing and have an excellent high definition bass response. As all of the mixing is done in a true digital state, the Behringer Flying Fader desk can be remotely controlled by our software, allowing our unique One Touch Autofade to assist young or inexperienced broadcasters to have a great live show.
