    Yeah I read that somewhere when I was looking into it... it just happens that I stumbled across ShoutCast first and decided to stick with it.

    I dont know how it handles on a large scale though, I have had 5 people listen and it ran fine.

    I have a online DJ radio plan with a mate of mine, which will basically allow DJ to play from home, then the feed go to a server, so = 1 listener and then te server is used to send it to users, allowing lots of listeners at the same time... will take us time to do it to ad some cash, but it will be in flash... The site for it should open soon without the radio first... will have parties info, DJs profl, forums and will allow DJs to upload some mix... make the community grow a bit while we develop the software for the broadcasting... a studio for those who can't play from home is also plan... will be London based... and if all go well and we make enough cash we will even go FM... long project and big goal, but hopefully we will get there...

    Sounds like a good plan... sounds well thought out as well!
    Will be alot of hard work, but well worth it if you pull it off...
    I have DJed on a few radio stations before, pirate and Online... brings back memorys... DJing in a tiny crampt room with a shitty little nokia phone going off every now and then... occasionally having to mission up to the roof of some near by building to help fix the rig... was a good laugh.

    cool, will be very welcome!

    should have the website online by the end of the week...

    Planning on having some contest as well maybe...
    like babe of the month where girls can sponsor a DJ by sending us sexy pic of them next to some DJ gears... to have a nice pics in the gallery ;)
    And DJs will be ale to win sets in parties...
    We got plenty planned...

    Any suggestions welcome :)

    The goal is to attract futur listener as well so when the radio is open we have more than few listeners...

    how much would you be willing to part with them for, out of pure interest?

    Around £475.

    James, the Access Virus is a synth, and a very sweet one at that! Although, I may also look for a Roland JP-8080 as it's been a personal fave of mine for some time.

    Thats using PC software though...

    I could talk over the music, cos all I need the PC for is broadcasting the sound...

    I would just use the mic plugged into my DJ mixer.
    Although I will take a look at the Sam3, could be interesting if it had more features....
    PM me your msn, I'll send you Sam3 with all the registation codes and such :x

    haha!

    Its funny innt!
    The amount of times I have been Djing and get carried away with the bopping around... only to turn round and see my sister behind me pissing herself laughing!

    I love it though... I hate when you see DJ's just standing there doing nothing! You got to dance about while doing it!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Hmm as much as i would love to do it, you've just made it sound way too complicated for my tiny mind to comprehend.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    If you buy one of them "DJ in a box" packages... its actually quite straight forward and cheap set up.
    Mixing takes a while to learn, but if you keep at it you will pick it up... and when you do, its so rewarding!

    The reason we have made it sound complicated is cos we are talking about the more complicated end of DJing... all the big boys toys! :D
