Simul-casting Music and MIC audio?

Mei_Hi_Ping · 2nd June 2002, 17:30

Using WinAmp v2.78 - SHOUTcast DNAS v1.8.9 - Win98se

Is it possible to broadcast both audio channels simultaneously on the same server?

Currently I have to switch between WinAmp and SoundCard inputs under the source control to go between my media and my mic. Am I missing something? I'd like to be able to do both at once. I've read a bunch of the documentation and even watched some tutes on advanced configs, but no luck.

Esentially, I just want to be able to overlay mic audio on media broadcasting without having to choose over one or the other.

Please advise. Thanks!

You need to setup the mixers properly. See: http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?threadid=86076 for details.

Tom,

Thank you for that very quick response, but I cannot seem to find any advanced button. However, I think I know what you may be referring to. Media is broadcast based on the 'Encoder' config [MP3 Encoder + bitrate] whereas the MIC is configured from Input source [SoundCard + MicInput{MIC)]? If both are enabled and configured then I can simul-cast?

You're running 1.8.2a/b all you need to be concerned with is (mainly the mixer part):
If you are running 1.8.2a or 1.8.2b
With the DSP open > Input tab > Input Device > Soundcard Input > Mic Input > Microphone

Now for the mixers (all versions of DSP):
Click the Mixer or Open Mixer button and this should open both the Recording Mixer and the Playback Mixer (you will most likely need to move one of them to see the other).
In the Recording Mixer select "What U Hear" / "System Mixer" / "Stereo Mixer" (the name on this varies, it may be one or none of those)
In the Playback Mixer make sure the Microphone is NOT muted.
When you press the "Talk" button in the DSP the Microphone volume in the Playback Mixer should increase and the Wave volume should decrease. When you let go of the button the volumes should return to their previous settings.

One thing to note about Advanced Mode. Any sounds that you hear WILL be broadcast. This includes AIM notifications, Email Notification and any other sounds you may have going on.
