DJ Garybaldy - The Only sound you need

Seen a couple of posts on social media where users claim you can make your radio station sound great with SAM Broadcaster Pro REALLY? I don't think so somehow! I used SAM Broadcaster for over 10 years and was frustrated time and again by audio distortion. My music files were ripped at the same audio levels and bitrates but despite this my music sounded CRAP in SAMBC. You CANNOT make your station POP with SAM Broadcaster as the audio output is AWFUL and amateurish at best. The last thing YOU need as a DJ is piss poor sounding audio your listeners will tune out if it doesn't sound right. It didn't matter what sound settings I tried my stream always sounded piss poor with SAM Broadcaster The audio quality from the bass sound engine really does make RadioDJ sound PROFESSIONAL. I can play different genres of music through RadioDJ & everything sounds GREAT with the above settings. Download RadioDJ and install it and you should not...

I'm testing streaming codecs in Sound Empire Caster and it doesn't matter what bitrate I stream at the audio from RadioDJ sounds Wonderful. I've ran 3 different tests on an Icecast server. Streaming out in 64K OGG/48K AAC+/64K OPUS and all the streams sounded amazing. Sadly the OPUS stream encoded by MB Recaster kept cutting out on song change which was a bit annoying. The Audio quality from RadioDJ when you have properly ripped files can be amazing. I couldn't get this sort of audio quality from other radio playout software I wonder why. I found software such as Zararadio made everything sound awful. The AGC & EQ in SAM Broadcaster makes everything sound distorted. You cannot get a professional sound from some software that often costs $$$ I'm so glad I discovered Radio DJ when I did in 2010 I found it had great programmed audio processing from the get go. ...

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 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. ...

Sometimes Windows Updates can do strange things to your audio and sometimes they can break your soundcard. I've had issues with Windows audio on and off for years even now trying to change sound settings I get grief and have to reboot the PC. This is where Virtual Audio can help. I don't appear to have many issues with Virtual Audio cables. I can connect RadioDJ to one of the pipelines and also connect the encoding software to that cable and I get flawless audio streaming. Update January 2022: The Breakaway Pipleline download has now been taken down It would appear that the Breakaway one Virtual Audio cables don't work well on Windows 10 after the latest feature update. They were causing my audio to cut out and stutter. Breakaway Pipline hasn't been updated since 2018. My recommendation is that you uninstall it from your computer. This is the Virtual Audio Cable I now reco...

Anyone who has ever used SAM Broadcaster can attest to how awful the built in VoiceFX feature can be when it doesn't work as advertised. My Microphone does not work within SAM Broadcaster Every time I turn the Microphone on and off again in the Voice FX panel It will not work again the next time and that is clearly an issue I tried and failed on Several occasions to get the Voice FX working in SAM Broadcaster when I first started using the software. Like the user quoted above it would work then it wouldn't and along with other annoying sound issues it became tiresome. Even when it did work you didn't sound great through it. Having Mic latency with SAM Broadcaster Pro & it's always been this way The audio was flaky at best even if you had a decent microphone routed through a mixing desk first. Users suffering with this issue really should look at other solutions There are several great programs out there for better vocals an...

I've used RadioDJ as my music automation solution since late 2010. The one GREAT thing about RadioDJ is: Once you nail the settings of the built in audio processing everything will sound amazing. A user had this to say on the forums. We tested RadioDJ and it gave us the playout sound we wanted by default I've tried all sorts of settings and configurations on the processor plugin it was all trial and error. These are the settings I've used for a while in RadioDJ From RadioDJ v2.0.2.0 (beta) You can now disable and enable different parts of the audio plugin. I'm pleasantly surprised by how great the music sounds with just the compressor and stereo widening. A user posted on the RadioDJ forums recently that he was using my configuration with the audio. Sound quality from RadioDJ is great being able to adjust the audio gain is a big plus side Running DJ GaryBaldy's settings the crossovers are how I want them. Then there are all t...

Recently searched through Audiorealm and started tuning into a few random radio stations. Some of them sounded OK(ish) & Some of them did not. The reason for the poor distorted audio quality on some of the stations was immediately clear. They were using badly ripped files or the sound processing in SAM Broadcaster Pro wasn't configured they sounded Distorted You know a SAM Broadcaster station when you come across one The badly coded website or #audiorealm on the Shoutcast server page gives it away I could never get a decent sound out of SAM Broadcaster even with the built in sound processing. Hey Spacial when will you exchange that lousy and terrible sound output with Professional Audio as used on regular Radio (Web) Stations? We think the sound processing in SAM is a rehash of a Winamp plugin called SoundSolution. Last time I tested the DSP version of Sound Solution it crashed and locked up the computer running RadioDJ. The audio would never s...
