StationPlaylist Streamer for Windows

Streamer is a stand-alone stream encoder application for Windows (and Linux with Wine). This is designed to take the audio from the soundcard, optionally pass it through a software compressor/limiter, and encode the audio to a stream in various/multiple formats for broadcasting on the internet.

Streamer provides a solution for internet broadcasters wanting no audio delay when doing live shows with the Mic button, but need the audio to pass through a compressor/limiter. Stream encoding can be taxing on the CPU, and removing this process from the automation PC will reduce the resources considerably, and provide better responsiveness when doing live shows.
