Preferences Window Screenshot (general)

General

Here there are extensive controls that alter the way IDJC behaves on often subtle levels.

The basic streamer option's effect is not so subtle. It allows you to stream just music with an absolute minimum CPU load as well as reducing the amount of screen space that is occupied.

It's possible to toggle the meters that are visible, configure Replay Gain and much more.

Audio channel processing

A great deal of care has been taken to make sure your voice can be heard consistently over the mix. The controls to do this are placed in your hands so experimenting and making recordings for review are advised before going on air.

The design of the audio stack is intended to reflect real-world station set-ups and best of all, it's all done in software. That said, a good microphone is still advised for the best possible sound.


Preferences Window Screenshot (JACK ports)

JACK port bindings

IDJC is built on the technology of Jack Audio Connection Kit. As the name implies it facilitates audio connections and IDJC makes audio available on a number of such ports.

Microphone and auxiliary audio is collected from the sources specified in this window and there is an interface that allows the stream audio to be sent for processing by external applications.

The set and save buttons allow temporary or permanent audio pathways to be configured.

Key and MIDI bindings

Set your keyboard shortcuts here.

You can even set bindings for MIDI events, which means you can control IDJC from MIDI control surfaces or MIDI devices generally. The superiority of such a set-up will become apparent with use.

Key presses are collected from the Main and Jingles windows only and depend on focus whereas MIDI events apply to all applications that are configured to receive them.

The list shown to the left represents the inputs that have bindings already assigned to them and not the complete list of possible actions which is much larger.
