    I’ve not yet listened, but you could prompt more response by giving some clue as to what you’re using preset-wise… Just a thought.

    Well 😯 if you want feedback 😯

    My first moan would be 🙄 it’s supposed to be Classic Rock Radio 😳

    Out of the 23 tracks I have seen in the available playlist.

    One track BTO – You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet = Classic Rock 😛

    None of the other 22 tracks in the list I would rate Classic not even close.

    It looks like you got all the tracks from those German Classic Rock CD’s
    Which = 1 track per CD is a Classic Rock Track 😆 if you are lucky 👿

    BTW: I am old enough to know what classic rock is, I have been playing it for years :mrgreen:

    The audio is two thing, the content and the quality, without one you can’t have the other.

    Just a note, from my past experiance most people will cope
    with terrible sound quality if the content is what they are looking for 😛

    You need to get yourself a program that can do some form of mixing the tracks
    together to get rid of the silence between tracks, very unprofessional 🙄

    This is a picture of the change over between Loverboy – Lucky Ones
    then 2 seconds of silence before Spencer Davis Group – I’m A Man

    I’m A Man should of been mixing in at around the 2.5 to 3.0 mark in that picture.

    In other words I’m A Man was 4.5 seconds late 😆

    Ask in the forum what members would recommend a program that will mix for you.

    BTW: Your music content could be why nobody is listening…

    Even freebie Winamp and freebie SQR Crossfading plugin will do good transitions, nearly perfect in most cases. I was using that for years until I was able to invest in Station Playlist, a more robust and complete radio automation suite.

    Again, I’m curious to know what settings and presets you are using and if you use any effects or outside gear to process your audio.

    Thanks!

    Hi Timmy,

    Thanks for the feedback! It’s actually the quality of the audio that I’m asking for opinions on.

    I use Jazler for my radio automation and the 2 second delay between songs is by choice. I actually received a few complaints from people not being able to hear the ending of songs because of crossfading. My other station "Paradise Tunes" uses crossfading.

    I think the listener map may have not been displaying correctly as you should have at least seen one marker as I’m tuned in 24/7 on one of my machines.

    I will post my settings, presets, and gear when I get back in the studio. It’s nice to get a few replies as we all want to be the best we can be in Internet radio.

    Cheers,
    Dan

    I thought the sound quality was great. I mean, you’re using breakaway!

    I know this isn’t what you asked for, but for streaming, you should always do some crossfading to at least attempt to thwart any stream rippers out there who are just stealing your music and doing who knows what with it. Obviously, crossfading isn’t the ultimate solution to this and maybe you couldn’t care less. That’s cool too, but I wanted to offer a quick hint on that.

    Thanks.
