TAKTONS- competition of sound recordings is a biannual evaluation of supreme achievements in the field of professional sound recording in radio and television. This unique manifestation was being organized and hosted by Radio Novi Sad under the patronage of Jugoslovenska Radio Televizija-JRT- (Yugoslav Radio Television) in the period between 1982 and 1990. Because of the known unfavorable events, a cessation in organizing of TAKTONS occurred and lasted for over eleven years.
In January of 2001, Radio-Televizija Srbije and Radio-Televizija Crne Gore decided to form the Initiative Committee for organizing TAKTONS anew. It was decided to organize TAKTONS from 24th to 28 th October 2002 in the well-known traditional way retaining all the positive characteristics for which the competition was recognized.
Mrs. Raina Konstantinova, the Director of the EBU Radio Department, visited TAKTONS 2002. On that occasion Director Konstantinova stressed the significance of radio in 21st century and gave her support.
Following the established customs, in the course of TAKTONS there will be the international exhibition of professional audio equipment producers. During its active years the number of exhibitants continually increased reaching between 25 and 30 stands. Just as reminder, with no intention to complete the list the exhibiting companies, amongst others, were: Sony Broadcast Ltd.,

The discussions brought praises, but objections as well. Quite a bit of time was used up discussing the issues of category G3, which pursuant to the Arbitrary Commission’s decision was not evaluated. G3 as a new category that did not exist previously, yet it covers the largest portion of the Public Media service’s production, and for this reason it should be cherished in order to better programs.
