Q&A: 23rd September 2013 - Mindmaps

1. A radio stations music format is the main broadcast content that is played. 


2. An A B C playlist is how many times a song gets played. in A list a song will be played about 3 to 4 times. whereas in the B list a song will only be played 2 times and if its in the C list it will only be played once. It depends how popular the song is, that is how its put into the category.


3. Music scheduling is putting together the playlist/ putting them in order. they have to schedule the music so they don't play anything that is not in their format e.g. a pop station playing classic music.

4.





















5.  A music scheduler needs to play the right type of music to keep the listener interested. such as using the correct format of music in the right music station, you cant play the wrong music in a radio station because the listener will think 'what is this?' and tune in to a different station.
