I did a quick test, and I like it a lot!
I hade to set latency on my ESI-MAYA44 to 1024 (outhervise I got poping/cracking sound) , but stil studio out is good for live performance (I can’t here any delay on the mic). MPX is about 0.5 sec deleyed.
Sounds as good in the studio as on OnAir, works just fine with with Airomate.
Running on a AMD Dualcore 2.7GHz, 2GB ram, Vista Business. CPU load 60-65%
Very nice product Leif!

OK, that was my guess also.I wold like to have an USB card, what do you think of this one: http://www.emu.com/products/product.asp … duct=15186
or maybe Native Intruments new "guitarr rig" http://www.native-instruments.com/newre … pAodkzsDog
[quote author=”Leif”]Indeed. It’s a proprietary technology, with yearly licensing due to ibiquity, but the worst part is — it’s AWFUL. It sounds truly horrendous. You’re not missing much.
[/quote]That is what I read, that HD don’t sound good. But the "HD people" are good lobbist and salesperons think thats why that way HD is used, and mostly it’s a "US technology", we did it 😉 .
more offtopic…
I did some test at home with a small DRM transmitter om AM, it don’t sound as good as FM, but having in mind that it’s infact AM and uses 20kHz bandwith, then it’s pretty good compare to regular AM. But not that good for a pure music station. Now I used a freeware version of Spark modulator (also tesed Dream) so I don’t have the "real" AAC codec and not stereo mode.
Can’t wait for our goverment in Sweden anounce the DAB+ licenses, I’m on…
[quote author=”Leif”]Hi Ken!
It’s not possible. HD radio is not actually a subcarrier of FM, but are actually separate carriers, next to the main carrier!

Thanks Leif, so no fun with my HD-Radio then 🙁 I have googled several times for a software HD encoder but not found any, and as HD is not an open standard I asume that I will not find any. So I have to wait until DRM+ receiver hit the market as I can do DRM+ with the Spark encoder.
Is it possible to record a HD station’s MPX and get the HD signal?
Why I ask, I don’t live in US and can’t listen to HD-Radio, but I got me an HD-Radio on eBay. So maybe If I rebroadcast an MPX recording from a HD station with a small FM transmitter then I could test my HD-Radio 😀
If it’s possible, please record any HD station for me.

Works just fin on my laptop running Vista 32bit.
Did notised that every time when I open I/O window, the list with "Interface" get doubled, open a few times and I got lots of chooices…

[quote author=”Leif”]Hi Ken!
It’s not out yet, but it will be shortly. It will be $299, and it will in fact replace a Live + BBP combo!
[/quote]
Any news on the new "low latency" BBP, beta??
[quote author=”feeling”]Here[/quote]
Here what? That version has bean avadible for some time now, nit the *new* version…
I asume if I have a four channel ASIO card, I can get 18ms MPX output on chan 1 (and on 2), and the studio 8ms output on channel 3 & 4.?
When can I get a beta to test? I’m so curious 🙂
/Ken
Leif, I read someware in the forum about a new version (beta) of BBP that works with ASIO.
Is it so that I can use my ESI MAYA 44 (4 channel) for both BBP and BB live? If so I be happy to test that version.
Best!
/KenWhere gan I get my hands on a good stereo widener that works good with BBP. Like "Spartacus stereo enchanger" that I read about.
[quote author=”Leif”]Nice!
So, how does the signal look?
Shoot a movie of the oscilloscope (when playing music) and upload?
Or, if that doesn’t work, how about some photos?

Hi,
I can’t find any videocam right now, so until that here is a few pic’s on 60 Hz sqare, and Quick sweep. Note that the scope is an old 20MHz…
Settings:
PEQ gain: 3.6, freq: 1796, width 0.14. Tilt: 0/Ken
