Here's another utility for the DJs... get rid of those awkward silences during the song transitions with this Winamp plugin...

http://www.winamp.com/plugins/details.php?id=32368

It actually analyzes the song and picks the right spot to fade out/in, so it sounds really good... The regular crossfader in Winamp is crap, and the other one I tried, FadeAmp, is too complicated.


This plugin really works well, I recommend it too.

A question, BN: When this thing installed in winamp it worked fine right away for playback - is it necessary to do any fancy configuration stuff for it to work for shoutcasting?
Nope... works fine, as far as I know.

Cool. One less thing to deal with as I prepare my "extravaganza". :D

One thing about the plugin though, don't skip tracks with it. Other than that it works great.

Why? You can get it to crossfade on skip, seek, and stop...

   



xerxes @ Sat Mar 25, 2006 4:29 pm

Maybe it's just me, but when I skip tracks, the songs mish-mash together unpleasantly.

Oh yeah... but if you go to the plugin configuration, you can adjust the crossfade durations, etc... it was a little slow for me, too, so I changed it.

Oh. Thanks for the tip Blue.

Cool winamp skin -- http://www.winamp.com/skins/details.php?id=122902

   



bossdog @ Mon Mar 27, 2006 1:33 pm

For those having trouble with the winamp and sc config:

   



BluesBud @ Mon Mar 27, 2006 1:43 pm

Thanx for the help Bossdog but it keeps pulsing between conected and not connected I will just have to figure it out on my own. Hey I will get it going eventualy

   



bossdog @ Mon Mar 27, 2006 1:55 pm

Alright. Usually that only happens when somebody else is DJ'n. I'm going to play some jazz for about an hour and half while you read up the SC FAQ's :wink:

Can you use this broadcaster without winamp? It's been acting up on me lately, so I'm not sure that I'd want to do a broadcast with it any more.

   



Canadaka @ Mon Apr 03, 2006 11:42 am

yes this is an alternative to winamp. It is more complicated, so might take a bit to get used too.

   



Blue_Nose @ Mon Apr 03, 2006 12:22 pm

Looks pretty fancy for being free... no strings or anything?
