Questions about the audio output of 2.0.2.0beta...
1) The volume of the TTS is a lot less than in 2.0.1.6b. Using the same tracks, the TTS is buried in the music audio. I have the same settings in both versions but they don't seem to operating the same way.
2) The AGC is not as good in 2.0.2.0b as it is in 2.0.1.6b. I put the audio on my stream overnight and into this morning and several listeners noted that parts of the audio blasted out while other parts were quieter than in the v2.0.1.6b stream. The listeners were not aware that I was beta testing a new version.
3) I wonder if the problem comes from separation of the different actions of the audio processing. I set compression and AGC presets the same as I had them in v2.0.1.6b and still find that the volume output on the stream is different.
3) And again, I bring up for discussion the fact that any music file followed by an EVENT will play the music out to the end point, not the NEXT point, creating a short period of dead air.
For example,
MUSIC SONG #1
EVENT
Weather Jingle
Weather Forecast
Station Jingle
MUSIC SONG #2
Song #1 plays out to the END cue, not the NEXT cue, before moving into the EVENT. If I change the settings so that the EVENT is deleted and Song #1 goes straight into the Weather Jingle, Song #1 plays to the NEXT cue.
I use the EVENT because it's easier to set it up once and insert it every time I need the EVENT rather than having to write out the sequence each time it occurs in the flow of programming.
Any thoughts or discussion on this will be appreciated. I really want to use v2.0.2.0b but I don't want to put it on my stream again until these issues can be resolved.
Thanks, Marius. I do appreciate your hard work!
