The audacity MP3 installer actually installed the file we need in a folder here called "audacity". That will take you to a folder with a lot of random files.
#LADIOCAST LOCAL INSTALL#
Install the file, then open Finder and hit Shift+CMD+G and type /usr/local/lib and hit enter. We need to install the MP3 encoder located at this link which is meant for Audacity but with a quick change it will work with any program.
#LADIOCAST LOCAL MAC#
You want to install the version from the link above, not the version currently in the Mac App Store (MP3 streaming seems to be completely removed in that version). DS106 Radio uses the MP3 format for streaming, which unfortunately requires a bit of extra work with Ladiocast.
#LADIOCAST LOCAL FREE#
Soundflower is a free extension to pipe your computer audio into a program as an input, effectively making what you hear on Youtube or iTunes also be broadcasted through Ladiocast. Ladiocast is a free streaming program that can handle multiple inputs/outputs and also has level control and monitoring. I am using a combination of two programs, Ladiocast and Soundflower.
I want to share my setup here because I think it's worth seeing how easy it is to do something that on its head sounds rather complex (Broadcast online audio both from your computer and microphone at the same time). I almost recall a late night Skype conversation to Afghanistan as well, but being quite a few drinks in at that point and with early morning obligations I can neither confirm nor deny. I never would have expected such an ancient technology like radio to have such a viral effect on this course, but it's completely addicting! I started rocking out some karaoke tunes on Friday night and I was joined by the Reverend Bava himself and Brian Lamb. This is all to the best of my understanding right now though, and I'm not a legal expert on this so hopefully someone more in tune with the laws behind this will chime in and clarify further.Image Credit Brandon Warren The combination of a few late nights with the wife and kid out of town and our newly installed high-speed internet connection have meant the ability for me to do more interaction with ds106 by way of broadcasting on the radio waves. I then take the audio from the recording, clean it up a bit and then upload to mixcloud. I'm doing the latter right now and haven't had any issues.
Easiest way around this is either don't record at all, or record and then immediately after your stream delete the recording (hopefully after you've downloaded the recording to your computer). Right now I haven't heard of people having issues with their actual streams getting shut off, just that people are getting warning letters and strikes from twitch for their recorded content. If you record your stream through twitch and leave the recording up for anyone to watch, someone could technically freely playback a song (via your recording) and that's where DMCA laws kick in. Where the record companies start having issues is if a random internet user can go to a website, pick out a specific piece of media, and play it back at their own volition. As best I understand right now (and admittedly most of us are figuring this out as we go on the fly), the issue with potential copyright isn't so much the livestream itself (as it happens live), but the archived recordings of streams.
