It's VERY hard to get clean anything with mp3's as source files Matt. Just trust your ears and be VERY fussy on what you put to air. Agressive processing is actually fatiguing! That's not good for long term listening!
Yes i agree mate i think im going to leave it there as you say as i keep going round in circles.
Great program and thanks for the comments Stationx
I even tried live into Broadcast but set what where omg so back to just broadcast me thinks
Matt
if you want you could leave it as is, if you have a particular sound in mind though i'l try help you

[/quote]Yes i am always looking to improve, thing is as my station has quite a few djs most of the time you wouldnt here my set up unless stated
Basically i need to be able to sound good playing dance and 80s music, whilst beight fairly loud as a lot of the others seem to come louder than me and the listeners say im quiet?
Now it seems louder ever thou the settings are lower? baffled lol
I have licences for live and broadcast so would love to know the best way to set everything
Many thanks
Matt

http://uk2.internet-radio.com:30252/Stream up now playing Funky House settings as above
uk time 6am till midday
Cheers
Take a listen 🙂
are the other djs using breakaway as well? if you want to be loud i suggest either. new york, amsterdam, cleveland, point blank, eruption, plutonium is also a popular one, change the settings around, listen and tweak, note i use the broadcast version but i imagine the suggested presets are in live as well
Hi
No none of the others use breakaway and I am also using broadcast as live is really quiet I find
So it's all the settings I'm looking for really that someone else is using or basically just hit and miss ?
Mattwell try the presets i suggested and play with the settings, the final drive will need to be turned up or down depending on the preset

The presets in the upcoming Breakaway products are going to be decently more quiet for the FM/AM versions, since they can always be doubled in loudness by increasing drive. The presets for Live, DJ, Basic (formerly known as Audio Enhancer), and Home Theater, will all have much less signal levels into the final limiters as a default.If one (like me) hates peak control, the closest they can get now with the current presets is:
preset: Reference (take your pick/preference)
range: 25
power: 100
speed: 15
and to use Reference Jazz if it sounds too processed for your needs. use Reference Settings if it doesn't sound processed enough; but if you hate peak limiting, you probably won't like the increase in sounding processed either. If there isn't enough AGC happening, increase the range slowly till it settles at the top when your (hopefully) loudness normalized sources are at their average relaxed yet loud parts. Be careful not to have too much range in the Multiband, or it can sound un-natural, and create an increased risk of not handling bursts.Some of the presets for the upcoming Breakaway products are very transparent, even in comparison with the above settings. 🙂
