GuestAnyone got any experience of using these two programs together with Stereo Tools for it’s RDS generator.

Memberyeah! Its possible to use stereo tool generating RDS only and sending to BBP. In my setup I’ve disabled all the audio processing in ST for low de CPU usage, only leave de RDS features and send de RDS signal to RDS in in BBP. Its works fine, I can upload pictures with the setup if you wants.

Guestthank you so much! can you do a quick print screen of your BBP I/O settings too please.
I see your mpx tilt is on 37 on your bbp settings page and your transition slope is on 0.05 aswell as mpx ref level -3.20db.. did you get ths fine tuning with an oscilloscope or someone else with the same sound card?

You can’t rely on the same model soundcard having the same tilt between them, especially the more tilt that model needs on average.January 28, 2011 at 12:23 pm #11837feeling
MemberBBK I/O setup
@mcbreeza: please dont copy the tilt, its only valid for my setup and it was set with a scope. The transition slope is the default value (I think). See the "transition width" its 0, then the transition slope value doesnt matter. If you see carefully, its in mono (no stereo) because its a "talk & news" station, 95% its talk (mono), broadcasting mono = better reception 😉 .The -3.20 dB MPX level its only a fine mod tunning to keep exactly 100% read in the mod meter.January 29, 2011 at 9:53 pm #11838Anonymous

For mono, only leave unchecked the "stereo" setting, like in the picture, and then check the mod levels, when I switch to mono the mod levels up a few dB in my exiter.
About mono transmitter, every transmitter are mono, you can encode to stereo with BBP 😉 and a 192 khz capable sound card.
