    Hi guys!

    I’m currently working on proper Windows 7 / Vista WaveRT kernel streaming support for Breakaway, and it’s coming along nicely.

    However, before then, I’ve still fixed several issues in Breakaway and added a few features.
    This will not be the last beta, but if you want to try the current one, here it is:

    http://bredband.leif.cx/browse/bae

    Child Process Not Responding error FIXED, i think
    Standby crash bug FIXED
    NEW: FM Mode
    NEW: Plutonium Preset
    NEW: Eruption Preset

    The WaveRT kernel streaming support is mid development and is not part of this beta, but will be in the next.

    A couple requests… 1: Can you explain the FM mode feature and its settings? and 2:If the preset doesn’t already include it, can you provide the same checkbox to enable or disable NR that’s in Live and BBP?

    Thanks.

    AWESOME, by the way!!! Thanks.

    I don’t want to try this beta.
    But it’s good to know that we are close to a new update release. 🙂
    Thank you Leif !

    I hope that the "Magnifying Glass" preset is not removed !? ❓
    I have tried the trial version of BA Life and noticed, that this preset does not exist (anymore ? so was it removed ?) in BA Life.

    Please keep "Magnifying Glass" in BA Enhancer.
    What of the newer (Live) presets comes close to "Magnifying Glass" ?
    Is it "Twente" ?
    Will it ("Twente") be a new preset (or replacement for "Magnifying Glass") in the next BAE major update release ?

    Hi Timmy!

    FM Mode is a low latency low cpu (but still oversampled and with advanced distortion cancelling) pre-emphasis clipper + de-emphasis. It’s designed to be used with small FM transmitters such as this one:

    Or, bigger models in use at Drive-In theaters, christmas light displays etc.

    With a decent transmitter, you can actually get close to broadcast quality this way. It’s a nice convenience feature — FM mode only takes 30% cpu on my atom n280-based netbook, leaving enough cpu to play movies as well. It’s a nice way of plugging in to a sound system without wires, whether you’re in a hotel room, at a friend’s house or in a car!

    FM mode helps the signal stay within the physical limits of the FM medium, and at no extra cost. Broken S-sounds and distorted hihats are a thing of the past.

    FM mode is not a replacement for Breakaway Broadcast, as the output is standard L/R de-emphasised audio. Thus, you must have external pre-emphasis and stereo generator, which all consumer transmitters have, but high-performance transmitters do not, as you cannot achieve perfect peak control this way.

    Does this include a newer VAC? Just wondering if I should re-tune with your resampler.

    Leif,

    If i load the Breakaway toolbar i got this error.
    But it does load fine.

    I’m running Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit.

    BTW: You did a fine job. The install file is about 1 Mb smaller then version 1.20.12… :mrgreen:

    Yes, I haven’t gotten to the toolbar yet. 🙂
