Today, we&rsquo;re sharing<strong> some tips to avoid common mistakes<\/strong> and obtain a real professional result!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color:#efbc12\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Avoid Parasite Noises<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is probably one of the most obvious mistakes, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radioking.com\/blog\/reduce-parasite-sounds-microphone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">avoiding parasite noises<\/a> isn&rsquo;t as easy as you might think! To start a live broadcast, it&rsquo;s essential to be in a <strong>calm environment<\/strong>, but it doesn&rsquo;t stop there. The sources of parasitic noise can be <strong>much more varied than simple background noises<\/strong> caused by traffic or your household appliances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if you are on a parquet floor, you will need to be extra careful not to make noise compared to a carpeted floor. The same goes for furniture that creaks at the slightest movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&rsquo;t forget that your set-up plays a big role when it comes to parasite noises. Touching your microphone stand or moving the cable is very likely to cause noises that will be perceived by your listeners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your own movements should also be limited. Tapping your foot, scratching your beard, leaning back in your chair too often, breathing hard, coughing, etc: these are all noises that can obstruct the synergy between your audience and your content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the <strong>first step to an enjoyable live broadcast<\/strong> so remember to pay special attention to the points mentioned above! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1037\" height=\"691\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.radioking.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25596 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 1037w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-300x200.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-640x426.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 640w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-768x512.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 768w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-860x573.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 860w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-680x453.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 680w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-500x333.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 500w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-400x267.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 400w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-200x133.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 200w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-50x33.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 50w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1037px) 100vw, 1037px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1037px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1037\/691;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1037\" height=\"691\" src=\"https:\/\/www.radioking.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 1037w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-300x200.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 300w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-640x426.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 640w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-768x512.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 768w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-860x573.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 860w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-680x453.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 680w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-500x333.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 500w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-400x267.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 400w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-200x133.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 200w, https:\/\/b3213589.smushcdn.com\/3213589\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/erreurs-live-rasio-materiel-50x33.jpg?lossy=0&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1037px) 100vw, 1037px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color:#efbc12\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Have good quality equipment<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Next step: the equipment. Even if, technically, running an online radio station only requires a computer and an Internet connection, we recommend that you invest a minimum for live broadcasting. But there&rsquo;s no need to panic!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nowadays, good quality material is available at an <strong>affordable price<\/strong>. Therefore, we can easily equip ourselves with the necessary tools for<strong> less than $600<\/strong>. So what do we mean by \u00ab\u00a0necessary equipment\u00a0\u00bb?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The term \u00ab\u00a0live broadcast\u00a0\u00bb goes hand in hand with talk shows and, consequently, <strong>microphones<\/strong>. There are now excellent studio microphones for around $150. Careful, depending on the configuration of your studio set-up (microphone near or far from you? Right in front or off-center? Background noise to be avoided?) as well as the format you offer (one or more speakers?), your needs in terms of microphone will evolve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83c\udf99 <em><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.radioking.com\/blog\/best-budget-microphones-radio-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color:#fb5e30\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Discover our selection of microphones unde<\/span><\/a><\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.radioking.com\/blog\/best-budget-microphones-radio-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color:#fb5e30\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>r $160 (2021 edition)<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another essential: <strong>headphones<\/strong>. It&rsquo;s very important to wear headphones that will give you an accurate preview of what your listeners are hearing, including those potentially equipped with a great sound system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like microphones, you can find a great quality pair of headphones for less than $160. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"color:#fb5e30\" class=\"has-inline-color\">\ud83c\udfa7 <\/span><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.radioking.com\/blog\/best-budget-headphones-radio-2021\/\"><span style=\"color:#fb5e30\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>Discover our selection of headphones under $160 (2021 edition) <\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, you may need an <strong>audio mixer<\/strong> too.

When you broadcast live on your radio, your internet speed is a crucial resource. With a low bit rate, the sound quality of your broadcast will be greatly impaired, without you being able to hear it via the feedback of your headphones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news is that nowadays, with the advancement of technology, it&rsquo;s rare to have an insufficient internet connection to stream compressed audio. However, if this is your case, be sure to do your best to <strong>limit your bandwidth usage.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To do this, we invite you to: cut off all downloads, reduce the number of open websites at one time and cut off the various devices connected to your WiFi. You can also equip yourself with a monitoring tool to keep an eye on all this!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83c\udf10 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radioking.com\/blog\/internet-radio-station-bandwidth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em><span style=\"color:#fb5e30\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>Bandwidth: estimate the needs of your radio station<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"color:#efbc12\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Prepare your show<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The content of your live will hardly live on its own! Before going live on air, establish the content of your ideal show. This is what we call a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radioking.com\/blog\/how-to-write-a-great-radio-script\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">script<\/a>. By being prepared, your show will be much more enjoyable and lively, and you&rsquo;ll find yourself more relaxed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides the show, prepare yourself too! You need to master your live broadcast from A to Z. This doesn&rsquo;t just mean knowing your content inside out, but also being prepared to <strong>allow room for improvisation<\/strong> when necessary. It&rsquo;s also about being able to handle situations such as a technical issues, a guest that&rsquo;s going off-topic, roadworks, and many other possibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to dig deeper, we invite you to follow lesson n \u00b0 5 of our Radio Academy dedicated to the success of your first live broadcast:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83c\udf93 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radioking.com\/p\/broadcast-live-internet-radio-station\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em><span style=\"color:#fb5e30\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>Lesson n\u00b05: How to prepare your first live broadcast?<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last tip for this part: <strong>don&rsquo;t forget the music!<\/strong> Playing 1 or 2 songs regularly allows you to take a break, refocus the subject and check that everything is going well technically.

But be careful not to make silly mistakes that can ruin the experience for your listeners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When playing music and speaking at the same time, <strong>keep an eye on the audio level of both tracks<\/strong>. The music should be audible without overpowering your voice. To do this, lower the music track by at least 10db compared to the voice track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"color:#fb5e30\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Top Tip:<\/span><\/strong> <strong>avoid speaking over lyrics.<\/strong> Choose a song without lyrics to illustrate your point. In the case of a song with lyrics, speak only during the musical intro or outro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The last simple mistake is leaving your microphone on when you are not speaking. We invite you to <strong>always turn off your microphone<\/strong> during a song. To avoid the \u00ab\u00a0popping\u00a0\u00bb sound when turning off the equipment, we recommend that you <strong>lower the volume<\/strong> to the minimum if possible, taking care to put it back to the same level when you want to speak. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><span style=\"color:#efbc12\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Articulate when live<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another mistake that is unfortunately still too common is a <strong>lack of clarity <\/strong>in the voice. It&rsquo;s such a shame to have a technically perfect live show ruined because of this simple mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can easily find exercises online that you can practice right before your live show. You can also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radioking.com\/blog\/8-tips-master-radio-voice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">check out this article<\/a> for our top tips!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember to relax your jaw, take a deep breath and&#8230;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><span style=\"color:#efbc12\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Have fun! <\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is probably the most endearing factor in live radio. A presenter who is having a good time on air naturally radiates a communicative joy and can even make you forget about minor technical mistakes (which you have already avoided by following this article of course!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By approaching your live show as a moment of exchange and pleasure, you will eliminate the pressure or anxiety.
