RADIO Player Pro DSP plugins

[Radiosoft]

RADIO Player Pro supports audio processing using DSP plugins developed for Winamp. Multiple plugins can be connected simultaneously, with separate processing chains for on-air broadcasting and retransmission.

Note: not all plugins are guaranteed to be 100% compatible with our products.

Installation

Step 1. Install the plugin

Install the desired Winamp DSP plugin. If the plugin uses DirectX or VST libraries, you will also need a bridge plugin (see below).

Step 2. Specify the plugins folder

Open RADIO Player Pro: Settings → Sound Processing.

In the "DSP Plug-ins folder" field, specify the directory where Winamp plugins are located.

Code: Select all

For example: c:\Program Files (x86)\Winamp\Plugins

Step 3. Add the plugin to the list

Click the "Add Plugin" button and select the desired plugin from the list.

Plugin Configuration

Each plugin has the following settings:

Use for:

• Broadcasting — process audio during own broadcast playback
• Retransmitting — process audio during retransmission of an external source

If the same plugin is used for both broadcasting and retransmission, during own broadcast the retransmission processing by that plugin is suspended.

Settings:

• Show settings on startup — automatically displays the plugin configuration window when the plugin starts. Some plugins require this window to be open to function correctly.
• Emulate Winamp version — sets a Winamp version number (e.g., 2.20 or 5.666). Some plugins check the Winamp version before starting. Enable only if the plugin does not work without this check.

Processing order:
Plugins are applied sequentially from top to bottom. Audio is first processed by the first plugin, then the second, and so on. Use the "Up" and "Down" buttons to change the order.

One plugin = one instance. If you need to use the same plugin twice, create a copy of the DLL file with a different name. However, not all plugins support this method.

Common Use Cases

Compressor/limiter for on-air
Connect a DirectX or VST compressor plugin through the appropriate bridge. In the plugin properties, check the "Broadcasting" option.

Separate processing for broadcast and retransmission
Add two different plugins: one with the "Broadcasting" flag, another with the "Retransmitting" flag.

Processing chain
Add multiple plugins and arrange them in the desired order (e.g., equalizer → compressor → limiter).
