I would suggest that you contact broadcasters locally and find out what they use. Get a feel for what's the industry standard and focus on getting facility with that set of tools. Some may have accessibility issues, so you'll need to work with the department in your school to get those issues resolved if at all possible. You can find a lot more help regarding audio issues on the MIDI-mag list. And you might also want to talk to folks at a local IAAIS (International Association of Audio Information Services) station if you have one. These are the folks that produce programs for blind listeners, and they're both familiar with supporting blind folks and also familiar with broadcast issues.
