Radio Top: New studios and new layout
Radio Top has been broadcasting from its new studios on Bürglistrasse in Winterthur since Friday morning. But it’s not just the studio equipment and production systems that are new—the station’s logos have also been updated.
The old studios in Erlenhof will be demolished next Monday. For the employees, the move also means retraining: the Radio Top program now runs via the "Diga System" workflow software, which has so far only been used by SRF in Switzerland, according to a press release from Radio Top. With the move, Radio Top is now at home in the same building as Tele Top. The licensed regional TV station already moved into the newly built television studios in the fall of 2009. The building at Bürglistrasse 31a will thus become a media house with Radio Top, Top Two, Tele Top and Top Online on three floors.
The station's layout was also redesigned accordingly. As a station with regional roots, Radio Top did not want to have the acoustic appearance produced abroad, but wanted to consider a local SME. The Schaffhausen-based company Tone Control, run by David Bollinger, ultimately prevailed in the selection process and has now produced the new layout - with Roger Müller as the station voice.
