Why Can't I Use DSP Plugins With RadioDJ 2.x.x.x

Regular users of RadioDJ will know that version 1.8.2 used to support plugins made by other users.

One of those Plugins written by SnowHow supported the use of certain DSP plugins within RadioDJ.

In RadioDJ version 2.x.x the plugin structure changed and OLD plugins weren't supported as they had been in version 1.8.2

HOWEVER

If you really need a DSP (digital signal processor) plugin to enhance your sound you can do it from within Sound Empire Caster

Sound Empire Caster

Sound Empire Caster supports the use of DSP plugins.

You need to place the .dll and .xml files into the main SEC program folder and you should then have access to that DSP after a restart

Highlight The DSP you want to use and use the arrows to move it into the right side panel.

TIP: Click SAVE so it remembers the plugin all the time.

Sound Empire Caster shouldn't have issues with the DSP of Stereotool

I've only heard GOOD THINGS from users about Sound Empire Caster.

It cuts out the need for RadioDJ to do the sound processing.

It's easy to use DSP plugins along side Stand Alone Encoding Software

Its over 6 years since RadioDJ v1.8.2 was released and RadioDJ has come on leaps and bounds since then.

I hope that you have lots of fun using DSP plugins with Sound Empire Caster but be warned:

NOT ALL DSP PLUGINS WILL WORK

Most DSP plugins were written 20+ years ago and won't work with Windows 10

Given the situation in Ukraine I think its probably safe to say that Sound Empire Caster updates may be delayed INDEFINITELY.

Sound Empire Caster was/is coded by a Ukrainian. I hope him and his family are safe.

That saddens me as Sound Empire Caster was showing some real promise and is a great encoding program.


AFAICS = As Far As I Can See
