Hey i was just wondering that when someone calls to request a song at a radio station, how do they play the song so fast. Some people don't request songs that they usually play, do they have every song u can think of? just wondering...thanks

It's a cool DJ trick radio stations use to appear they can instantly bring up a listener request. I almost feel like a magician letting out a coveted secret but here it goes:

The DJ has a cassette tapedeck rigged through the soundboard to record incomming phone calls. While songs are aired, the DJ runs the tapedeck while taking requests. He/she then isolates one and cues it up to replay.

From there, they pick out the song requested, cue it up too....and when the on air song fades, they play the taped request call and follow it up with the requested song. To the listener, it all sounds like instant DJ magic.

you comprehend. i in my view have been given uninterested in radio on the grounds it rather is stable at getting you uninterested in any music rather rapid. I recommend the subsequent music is guarenteed to be one you have already heard and then they play any hit to its bloody death. Whats tiks me off the main is whilst it rather is request hour. people will request the comparable crap they play at conventional hours!!! How dumb is that!!! IPOD each and each of how or communicate radio.
