They have an Orban, but, of course, it can't fix the sound when it leaves the console clipping. I looked at a few on the editor and the average volume levels were all over the shop. I inquired further and found that they do not normalize their songs (or voice tracks) when putting them into the automation system. With the fader at about 75%, some songs sound great, but some sound way over-driven. I asked the board op and he said it had been a problem for awhile and that they tried keeping the fader for the automation low but then voice tracking didn't sound right. I watched the console for awhile and noticed that some songs were way below 0 VU, some were right at 0, and a few were slamming the needles into the red-these are the ones that sound distorted. Every so many songs there was audible distortion, both on the air and in the studio. I just took on a 100KW FM station and wasn't there a day when I noticed a problem.
