WDST<\/a> is a well-known radio station<\/a> in Woodstock, NY<\/a>. Formatically, I would call it Adult Album Alternative<\/a> (AAA) and it is one of my favorite stations to listen to. We also do the engineering work for this station.\u00a0 While I was there last week, I snapped a few pictures of the studios:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All of the studio use Audioarts R-60 consoles, which are in good condition considering their age.  Lots of guest microphones and the windows look out into a performance venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The music library is extensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The production room, another R-60 console. I don’t know where the microphone disappeared to, perhaps it was borrowed by the morning show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"WDST<\/a>

Technical Operation Center (TOC). WDST uses NextGen from RCS for music storage, playback and automation.  Other equipment includes ISDN, POTS phone, Distribution Amps, Limiters, streaming computer, STL, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
