Answer 1

A demo tape is used to give the radio management a chance to her how you sound.

Depending on what kind of format the station plays, you'll want to record a brief segment of your own voice - either reading news, for news/talk or a short DJ segment, for music stations.

It doesn't have to be long..radio people are busy folks. 10 minutes max should do it.

Don't worry..they're not to difficult to do. Just give it your best shot and sound as natural as you can.
