    I use BBP simultaneously on fm and on the net, but is there a way to feed the edcast encoders with the signal BEFORE the clippers?
    With the new version coming up and hopefully with UNDO in the chain it would almost be a shame to use the clippers for streaming…

    The signal before the clippers has huge overshoots. You’d have to broadcast at -12dB to avoid protection clipping, which would sound infinitely worse than the psychoacoustic purpose-built clipper in BBP.

    If you want limiting instead of clipping, with phase linear processing, lucky for you there is a Breakaway product that does just that. 🙂

    You mean Breakaway Live? I thought Live wasn’t phase linear 😳

    The face is sad because I forgot an important law of truth:
    "assumption is the mother of all fuckups"

    As someone who often works in a live television master control environment, I can attest to the truthfulness of that statement! 😆
