Winamp Line In

  



Developed by Nullsoft in 1997, Winamp is a media player that supports a wide array of audio formats and was an iconic software application in the heyday. As you listen your music in Winamp, MilkDrop 2 takes you flying through visualizations of the soundwaves you're hearing, and uses beat detection to trigger myriad psychedelic effects, creating a rich visual journey through sound. MilkDrop 2 can also be driven by a live audio feed (microphone or line-in) - see the documentation for details. Dsp chung is an universal dsp sound effects program for your computer.Chooze the input sound port (for example the line in entry of an external usb sound card) then dsp effects (autovol/compressor, reverb, automodulation, decay, plugins,denoise) will be applied and sent to the selected output sound port (for example the system mixer). My third Winamp-skin. Tried to make something dark this time. I might skin AVS, Video and library-windows later when i have time. The skin looks best with only the main window open, since the playlist doesn't support rounded corners. And a dark wallpaper is good UPDATE - Dec 15, 2005 I've skinned the remaining windows today! Visualizations with CD and line-in in Winamp Step 1: Start Input A) For CDs start playing the CD. B) For line in select Open Location (Ctrl-L) and type in 'linein://' and hit Open (no quotes).

How to Broadcast to your Shoutcast Server using Winamp?
Disclaimer: We only offer this article as help to you. We do not offer tech support for WinAmp.
There are known issues of WinAmp not being able to connect or use voice when using Windows 10 and SHOUTcast v1.
If you have Windows 10 use a plan that offers SHOUTcast v2 or Liquidsoap
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 1.)

Download the latest version of Winamp first (For Windows) and Download SHOUTcast DSP Plug-In For Winamp (For Windows).
Once you have installed the DSP, start Winamp, open the preferences(CTRL+P) and click on the DSP/Effects subcategory under the Plug-ins tree. Please refer to the picture below:

If you see 'Nullsoft SHOUTcast Source DSP v2.3.2' in the right panel, then you have correctly installed the SHOUTcast Broadcast DSP Plug-in.

SHOUTcast Source DSP

Storm the house 2?. Step 2.)

Select the 'Output' tab at the top of your DSP window. Select 'Output 1' under the selection box, and fill in all of the following fields properly.
Address:
Here, you need to enter the server IP address: 70.35.201.123. Make sure that you put in the proper server IP, or else you will not be able to connect.
Port:
In this field, you need to enter the 'DJ encoding' port that was given to you in your welcome email. It should contain 4 numbers. Once again, this must be set properly or else you will be unable to connect. Please note: This is NOT your streaming port that listeners use to hear your stream, this port connects the DJ to the stream. This information is obtained from the DJ manager (WHMSonic) or Configuration DJ (Centova).
Password:
Last, you need to enter the encoder (source) password that was created in your DJ manager. Enter this here, and make sure there are no mistakes. If using SHOUTcast v1, the username and password can be entered in the password box together separated by a colon (:). (Common mistakes include using the copy and paste method. There is sometimes a space added during the process that will cause an invalid password error)


Step 3.)

Directory setup (streaming server display details)
Click on the 'Directory' tab right above where you entered all of the previous information.

If you'd like your server to be listed in the SHOUTcast directory, check the 'Make this server public' box, and fill in all of the information below the box in a proper manner.

Be sure to check the 'Enable Title Updates' and the two boxes that say 'Auto' in
order to show your users the title of the song that is playing.


Step 4.)

  • Encoder Settings (select streaming audio format).
  • Select the 'Encoder' tab at the top of your DSP window.
  • Make sure under the selection box, you have selected 'Encoder 1'.
  • The Encoder Type can be set to either MP3 or AAC+, our servers support both. However, If you are broadcasting in virtual games like Utherverse (RLC) and/or Second-Life, this must always be MP3.
  • MP3 audio sounds good and is compatible with just about every media player on the market. AAC+ is only compatible with Winamp and Windows Media Player (with a plugin) but sounds much better at lower qualities. Be sure to choose wisely.
  • In the Encoder Settings drop down, select the bitrate that you ordered from us (192kbps etc.), and be sure that the line you selected has 'Stereo' at the end, so individual sounds will come out of both of your listener's speakers.
  • Note: If you try streaming at a bitrate higher than what you have ordered you will not be able to stream and your account could be suspended or terminated. See Terms of Use.


Step 5.)

Input settings (select the input audio source)
Select the 'Input' tab at the top of your DSP window. Sims 4 abusive modlastevil. Unless you have specific soundcard input settings, or want to talk on your stream, select 'Winamp' at the Input Device. As every soundcard is different and individual, we cannot give any tutorials for the Soundcard Input except to say that to use your mic and the ability to speak over the stream when live, you must select 'soundcard.'

Step 6.)

Go back to the 'Output' tab in your DSP window. Make sure 'Output 1' is selected, and then click the connect button. In the status box above the button, it should give a time and then 'Sent xxxx bytes'.

Congratulations, you have begun to stream audio!
You may now open any Winamp-compatible audio file in your player, and it will stream to our servers.

Step 7.)

Using your microphone to talk/speak while broadcasting live.

  1. Open Prefrences (CRT+P) It is always best to leave this window open during live broadcast.
  2. Select the Input Tab
  3. Change Input Device to Soundcard Input
  4. Push 'Talk' or 'Lock' to talk

General
Q: What does the Equalizer do?
A: The equalizeris similar to the bass and treble controls on a stereo or radio,however you get individualized control of specific bass or treblefrequencies. The left side are the bass frequencies and the right arethe treble. The higher the more bass/treble, lower positions the lessbass/treble and center is normal. The preamp is similar to a volumecontrol on the EQ.

PresetsQ: What are Presets?
A: Presets let you save or load custom equalizer settings. Winamp already comes with a default set of presets..
  1. press Preset button.
  2. select Load
  3. click Preset..
  4. There should be a list to choose from, make a choice
  5. click OK

You can also set your own presets and save them
  1. Set the EQ sliders to your liking
  2. press Preset button.
  3. select Save
  4. click Preset..
  5. give it a name and Save

Q: Where can I find more presets? Where can I find presets for other genres?
A: To paraphrase, 'presets are in the 'ear' of the beholder'. It all depends on the listener and the sound system on their computer. However, if you are interested in more presets read here. Note what was mentioned about installing 'Winamp.q1' presets and how that will replace the default preset file.
Q: What are auto presets? What does the 'Auto' button do?
A: Auto presets can be set for specific media files and automatically load for each media file.

Winamp Milkdrop Plugin

  1. set the EQ to the way you like for a currently playing song or current file in main/player window.
  2. press Presets button
  3. select Save
  4. select Auto-load preset..
  5. press the Save button
Winamp Line InWhen the Equalizer and Auto button are on the EQ will change automatically for each media file that has an auto preset.
SettingsSet a default for non auto preset..
  1. set the sliders to your preference for a default
  2. press Presets button
  3. select Preset..
  4. select Save
  5. select Default
Q: Will auto-presets work for audio CDs?
A: Auto-presets are based on filenames. You can add auto-presets for CD tracks, however as CD tracks are represented as Track##.cda (where ## is the track number) the presets will also be applied to tracks on other CDs.
Q: Will auto-presets work with Internet radio (EG SHOUTcast)?
A: Yes. If the stream's address is static (does not change) auto-presets will work.
TroubleshootingQ: When using the EQ I get static or choppy music, what can I do to fix it?
A: Try these DirectSound tweaks.Using a DSP/Effect plug-in with the EQ may be overkill so try disablingeither one. People with lower end systems may want to close someapplications. Make sure you have the latest updates to the sounddrivers and DirectX for your system.
Q: Why is there no Equalizer item on the right click menu?
A: Some modern skins don't have an Equalizermenu item built in to the skin. That will usually occur with modernskins that have the EQ built in to the main player. It is up to theauthor to include one.
Q: Why does the EQ have a default or generic look?
A: If the skin author did not include an Equalizer skin Winamp will substitute one. It is up to the skin author to include all windows in skins. All skins at Winamp.com have fully skinned equalizers.
Q: The EQ window is gone, where is it?

Winamp Line In Tutorial

A: Don't panic. Read this thread.
Q: Arrrr, I go to 'Presets > Load > Preset..' and there is nothing in the box. Help me!
A: Either the preset file is missing or has become corrupted. You can download default/original preset file here. While Winamp is not running, download the file directly to the Winamp folder or download it to another folder then move (or copy) the file to the WA folder.
Q: How can I get the EQ work with CDs?
A: For CDs
  1. Ctrl+P
  2. Plug-ins > Input
  3. double click Nullsoft CDLineIn Plug-in
  4. checkmark 'Enable digital audio extraction when possible' and/or 'Use Sonic engine when possible'

Winamp Milkdrop 2

Q: How can I get the EQ to work with LineIn or Microphone?
A: To do this you will need Jasper's LineIn plugin. Documentation is provided with the plug-in's ReadMe file or use the online docs. Some points about using the plug-in..
  • Jasper's plug-in uses line:// (not Winamp's default linein://).
  • To prevent echoes the Microphone and Line In should be muted in the Windows mixer.
  • Because of the plug-in's nature there is a noticeable latency (delay) issue. The on line docs has some suggestions for reducing the delay.
Q: How can I get the EQ to reset/return to normal values for non auto preset files?
A: You need to configure or reconfigure a default preset.
MiscellaneousQ: Why is their X number of seconds before I hear the change?
A: That depends on how much time set in buffer of the current outputplug-in. X numbers of seconds in the buffer = X numbers seconds beforeyou hear the change.
Q: Is balance or cross-fade included with EQ presets?
A: No. Although some modern skins may have the balance and/or cross-fade controls in the EQ window they are not a function of the equalizer.
Q: Will the EQ normalize or auto level my songs/music?
A: Yes and no. The EQ is not specifically designed as normalizer,however if you have a small number of files to normalize and don't mindsome work the EQ can simulate a normalizer. Use auto presets in conjunction with the preamp slider. If you want to, add personal touch with the frequency sliders.
For further information on equalizing and/or auto gain read here.
Q: What are the various equalizer settings files?
A: Winamp.q1 = presets file, Winamp.q2 = auto-presets file, *.eqf = individual preset file where * represents a file name
If you are interested with other changes/effects/enhancements with music there are plenty of DSP/Effect plug-ins to choose from.
