New studio furniture stockpiled in what will become Production 1 studio. |
More furniture in Production 1, August 2007. |
 |
Renovations and improvements being made to the room which will eventually become On-Air Studio 2.
As part of these renovations, KRTU didn't just update its existing studios, we added new studios and dramatically increased our capabilities, making every "production" studio potentially an on-air studio as well, and vice versa. |

On-Air Studio 2 renovations and custom furniture were completed by October 2007. Wquipment installation was delayed as we focused on the main On-air studio, but all systems were working by February 1, 2008.
All broadcast operations were conducted from this studio during KRTU's Spring 2008 fund drive, demonstrating KRTU's new "studio switching" capabilities. |

On-Air Studio 2 completed and ready for use, a DJ's Eye View. |
Thanks to the new equipment, training Trinity students on how to be an on-air host is faster and easier than ever. |
 |
Another bonus from the renovation was the creation of KRTU's first Isolation Studio, a place to conduct round-table discussions or off-air interviews. The studio can be linked to any On-Air studio for live broadcast (as it was during the Spring 2008 Fund Drive), or function independently as a basic audio production lab. |
 |
The Production 1 studio saw a dramatic transformation as part of the renovation. What was formerly a staff office, then a limited audio production lab was converted to a fully-integrated production studio with On-air capabilities. We were also able to add additional work stations to give our student managers their own offices, computers and organizational space. Next to the main On-Air studio, this room is the workhorse of KRTU. |

A look at some of the student manager work stations, mail center, and bulletin-wall. Students are an integral part of KRTU, and giving them a home within the studios is a great benefit to everyone. |
