    Just trying to get an opinion on my stream. I think I’m hearing some distortion of some highs…could just be the source material. They are all WAVs. I’m using the Plutonium setting, final drive is down to -1.0 but my speed is up to 65. If you need additional info, please let me know.

    Thanks for your help!

    What playout software? What soundcards (if any are used) and what "fx" are enabled? What other analog or digital processing are you using before or after Breakaway?

    Hi Jesse,

    Using Station Playlist, no soundcard, just Breakaway livelink. Using -6 attenuator, autobalance set to +/- 6 with 1 second, impact/clunk 1 and 2. No processing before or after…have the volume at -5.

    thanks!

    If you have the volume at -5dB, then you must be doing something after Breakaway… within the encoder chain perhaps? The peak control of mp3 isn’t anywhere near as bad as what you would need to see the peaks as high as what you have here.

    Or somehow something is very wrong with your encoder.

    Also… Does Station Playlist have processing? I was just talking with someone who said it did. Have you tried bypassing it?

    Thanks for your time Jesse!

    My bad, I have the peak ref at -3.

    Just went through to make sure no processing is on within Station Playlist, nothing…The only DSP’s selected are breakaway live link 1 then the Oddcast dsp which is after that.

    I do have the bandwith set to 16kHz, HPF at 30 and Phase Linear selected.

    for whatever reason, the treble on your station is REALLY dense. it’s quite difficult to listen to for very long at all. it’s not just you. 😉

    Thanks for the second pair of ears Jesse….will tweak and see what I come up with 😕 Maybe I can roll off to 5 or 10? Will see, wish I knew the reason.
