Streaming LOG Notes:
UPDATE
3/16/2020
Added New "Server
3" ... Streams #301, #302, #303
Streams are temporarily "comparing" various processing settings
with same source.
This is a high powered multi-core Intel class server, and will
trade places with Server #1
This will also become my "live show" main input server.
Fixed "Server 1"
replacing failing hardrive. It is likely this is what was
causing intmt shutdowns.
Server 1 received new drive, new OS, new music drive, all new
configs.
This older Dell server is only capable of several simultaneous
streams at full processing, and will be swapped to output
streaming duties only. It appears to now be working 100%.
"Server #2"
continues to stream perfectly. An extremely high powered
multi-core DELL i7 Intel.. this is also my daily use work
desktop. Currently running 4 audio streams at full
processing.. the load meters remain less than 20% ram and
processing with everything else running too.
Stream #102 is no
longer working as a Rollback relay.. it is currently streaming
Pop/Disco.
With 10 streams
running.. I now need to decide what new formats for each
channel.
Many of the previous signal path configs have been changed and
updated.
Most streams are now currently running fully multiband
processing for ultimate sound quality.
UPDATE 12/26/2019
Added Stream #204
This was previously streaming temporary Christmas Favorites 24/7 for the
holiday.
Today this stream format was switched to "DJ Dee's Favorites"

Playlist: How many hours/days before playlist starts over
(fully shuffled)
Since the playlist runs 24hrs continuous, random songs will play
at various random times during day or night. There's a good
chance you might listen for hours or days and not hear a single
repeat. Odds are with "Rock" playlist it could take months
or years to hear it all eventually.
-------------------------------------------------
# 101 ROCK: Our first and original LIVE LOCAL stream!
This is our MAIN channel!
When not interrupted by "live local
weekend shows"... this stream features a massive automated
variety of Rock Funk, and Blues.. late 60's 70's 80's some 90's,
heavy rock, psychedelic rock, classic rock, southern rock, easy
rock, oldies, some blues, some country. The playlist
(currently 6 days long) is totally random shuffled and currently unedited
with everything and anything randomly dumped in. It features
complete and entire albums! Again it's all completely random.

files are played "raw"... original, uncompressed, unprocessed.
Stream includes hourly "Station ID's"
The rock playlist also includes some late classic 60's like
Beatles, Ray Charles, and so many more!
Also included plenty of 80's hair bands and music as current
as ACDC, Collective Soul, Metallica, Judas Priest,
Nine-Inch Nails, Nickelback, Pearl Jam, Offspring & Kid Rock.
Blues would include Hendrix, Albert King, Stevie Ray, BBKing,
Joey Gilmore, Blues Brothers, etc (too many to name) all mixed
in there too!
Local bands are also featured.. as well as some other rare or
obscure stuff. There are also numerous albums of Jimmy Buffet in
the occasional mix to put you in the groove! Plenty of
easy stuff in there too like Elton John, Billy Joel, Chicago,
etc... as well as countless single hits too! It's ALL
there! You won't get bored... Enjoy!
