I can talk, but the music is crappy.

Tallin · 10th August 2000, 05:51

I am broadcasting over Shoutcast and everything is fine except the fact the music I am broadcasting sounds too loud and muffled and very static-like. I know that the quality is only 24kbps, but when I listen to other stations with this setting their music sounds fine. Is there something wrong with my audio mixer set up? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

how do they sound when you play them locally?
how are your mp3's encoded? (what program and frequency)

The music sounds fine coming from my speakers. It is all encoded at 128kbps to 192kbps and at 44.1khz. But when I tested it with my friends they said when I would talk through the advanced mode it sounded fine, but when I would stop talking and have the music continue it sounds bad to them. Plus when I save the broadcasts and listen to them later I can really tell what they mean.
