Hi guys!
I’m going on a sorely needed vacation road trip for a couple of weeks. I will stop in from time to time, but I would really appreciate if everyone would continue helping answering questions like you have been doing 🙂.
Best regards,
///LeifAnd don’t let me catch you online from the beach again this time, or I swear I’ll DDoS your uplink. 😀 j/k man, have a great time.
Have fun and a nice trip 😉
Leif
Have a nice trip ,you needed man ! 😆
Have a safe trip Leif.. In case you decide to visit Brazil just let me know and I’ll buy you a [couple of] beer[s].
Enjoy your well deserved time off…

BrazilHave fun Leif, i just bought BBP Live so buy yourself a beer on my costs lol
No just making fun huh 🙂
Btw, with the activation of BBP Live i got myself an BSOD in Windows 7 64-bit. Just when BBP wanted to activate over the internet. So i restarted and runned BBP under administrator rights, now it’s activated succesfully. Strange shit. I had the same problem with SAM Broadcaster on Vista before, but i couldn’t get that solved. Also not under administrator rights, so they had to de-activate and activate it in the Spacial Audio company.
Maybe it has something to do with the technique they are using for the activation process? If somebody has a clue it’s always welcome.
So, driving around in Thailand, I’ve been running BBP low cpu mode on my netbook in my rental car, with the headphone output (mpx out!) connected to a BW PLL+ 1 watt exciter. This is how I’m playing music in the car.. Excellent audio quality (reference settings). Tapes are so yesterday.
A 1 watt exciter creates a pretty strong signal, but occasionally there’s strong modulated noise in the background. When that happens, I usually kill the transmitter to see what’s behind — an fm station at the same frequency.. And when I do, I’m usually blasted out of the drivers seat by LOUD, distorted Thai music, easily 10dB louder than what I was playing.
I calibrated my setup before I left, to exactly 75 kHz deviation..
It’s common practice at radio stations in Thailand to run completely unprocessed into the airwaves. No processing, no nothing.. So, to be that much louder, they have to be swinging like 200 kHz on peaks. Yikes.
It’s extra fun when high frequency peaks turn to noise because the signal goes beyond the IF filter and the receiver loses lock 🙂.. This happens all the time.
These guys could really use BBP.. 🙂

P.s. Ricardo, I will take you up on that one day!
