MemberIs it really needed? Is sliding to zero/50 too much work for you? =)

Member[quote author=”kkaras”]There is also Luci live software, works very well, i use every week for remote session.[/quote]
Looks cool too.. but I start to feel that there ain’t no free solutions, at least for low latency..

MemberWoah, just found out about AudioTX Communicator, there’s an trial available from their website, that’s just about what I would like to use……………….although it’s $799 π
Freeware community, help me out!

Member[quote author=”Dj Buik”][quote author=”Modulator”]Ookay.. Sorry that I’m resurrecting this old thread, but there’s a question that has been popping up on my mind recently: Where is the free software based audio transmission? Edcast could evolve to create low latency (AAC-LD or CELT (from creators of Vorbis) ?), end-to-end link, or would it radiorio?[/quote]
I think the latency is not much of an issue here. The audio link must be robust.
Maybe with a failover line or something, so you no have a ‘dead air’ broadcasting.[/quote]True, but I can’t understand why couldn’t that be achieved with a software based solution? For example if you use a point-to-point WiFi-link as a primary path, you could additionally have an 3G modem which would receive lower quality stream from Internet, and thus being a failover line, so I think possibilities are endless.. Also, being a software, it would simplify both ends of transmission, broadcast processing and STL both in a same box (Breakaway!). Thus, if you have fixed private connection like fiber or copper, the only place of failure is most likely the PC.
Also, do you know many stations which have an failover line? Here in Finland, we have this almost-nationwide station called NRJ (yes, originated from France), which has a transmitter near my home and is using a satellite based STL as a only program source. Okay, I’m from Finland, not the most advanced country in radio business, but still π 8)

I’m just a hobbyist really who doesn’t do real broadcasting nor have money/insanity to buy hardware encoders..

Member[quote author=”Audio”][quote author=”Modulator”]So, where can we listen these test stations? Streams?[/quote]
Isn’t Streams Orban’s platform?
[/quote]No, I meant are there any streams that could be using O9 π
… And why isn’t that lossless or even in any better quality, my ears bleed because of the artifacts ;(

Member[quote author=”uksoundz”]Thanks, but my computer plays the music and runs breakaway this goes into a mixer and a mic goes into the mixer which goes into the transmitter, so only the music runs through breakaway. I could connect the output of the mixer to another computer and run breakaway on it, but my other computer isn’t powerfull enough.[/quote]
You need to input from mixer to PC.. so.. run your music through a soundcard UNPROCESSED, and connect the mixer to the soundcard’s input and have Breakaway to process that from that input, then output to a OTHER soundcard (yes, you need 2 soundcards) which goes to where ever you broadcast.. if you only stream the output then you do not need another soundcard, although for monitoring it’s still recommended π

Uh… ΒΏwhat? π³[/quote]
The so famous Orban Optimod 8600 processor =) (well, I really can’t distinguish processors by their sound..)

Member[quote author=”JesseG”][quote author=”aliasme”]Some people prefer to just hit the by-pass on the EQ and let the LoudMax plug-in do all the work. I’m still very much looking forward to an upcoming OS X product![/quote]
That’s going into the realm of using an EQ to correct for the response of the speakers and the room. And it can be VERY beneficial when done properly and accurately. 8) But of course, it’s different for every pair of speakers in any given room.[/quote]
Very offtopic but luckily there’s a very high quality solution for this! (They are manufacturing these near my apartment =))

MemberBut the truth is that because Breakaway isn’t going to utilize anything groundbreaking in "foreseeable future", the Stereo Tool will come eventually and like a butcher, take this down π (just predicting, that’s all!)

MemberThe recording sounds like mono, so we can’t actually determine if there were any stereo effects..
Of course streams are stereo.But oh my god, listening to this makes me miss summer ;(
Modulator
MemberUrgh, horribly wide stereo, brings too much reverb up! And pretty squashed also.. but if you like it then…
Can’t say about the Stereo Enhancer settings, but Plutonium with Power and Range nailed above 70 would do. Well, Plutonium contains a lot more bass than what you can hear from these examples..

Member[quote author=”JesseG”]I’ll add that all ASIO4ALL is doing is providing a software ASIO later that interfaces with the card’s Kernel Streaming interface. So the only thing you’re doing by using ASIO4ALL is adding latency. You’ll get less latency and potentially more stability by just using the Kernel Streaming (KS) already built into Breakaway.[/quote]
How can that be true, since you can’t use KS in BBP ASIO directly? And BBP doesn’t have similar low latency mode as in BBP ASIO, there’s still 100 ms or so core latency, plus the I/O buffer?
I might be wrong but..
