Thanks! I’m glad you like it.
You can really thank Leif for the clean sound though. 🙂 That, and the fact 99.99% of my audio files are uncompressed WAV files…Hi guys,
What do you think guys of the following set-up?
– Hosted Supermicro 1U server (HD 80, RAM 2Go) running on Windows XP
– Creative Sound Blaster Sound CardRegarding the stream, we are looking to have 2 simultaneous bitrate streams:
1) High bitrate (for a Rock format: MP3 – 128k or 192k?), quality would be welcome but not at the expense of our stream being too "heavy" bandwith-wise.
2) A lower bitrate for our iPhone app (64k in Acc+ or else?)Let me know what you think, any recommendations are welcome!
Cheers!
Hi,
One question what sound card would you recommend using on a hosted server?
I would like to use BBP, so should I go, ASIO, MPX, a standard 192k capable card?
I understand MPX is only relevant for FM?
Which brand / model would you recommend?
Thanks for your help with this. 🙂

You can use LiveLink to make your playout software connect with breakaway. Somewhere on this forum there are instructions for using Breakaway with both SAM and StationPlaylist in such a situation.

Breakaway live is fine for streaming. You won’t need the extras Breakaway Broadcast has that are meant specifically for radio broadcast.

2) 48k AAC+ sounds great. I would also offer a 24k mp3 stream for those who might want to listen using a dialup connection.
