They've improved the audio, but as you say, no processing by the sound of it. I suspect it's coming off the desk.

Yes, I hear some level issues. So no overall processing. And that's needed because you have to deal with different sources. It's coming from one studio complex with different studio's in it. So the sound will then have to be centrally controlled and not straight from the desk to the stream.

Yes, Studio B is way softer than studio A on the stream, also the mics are louder in A. So centralize the processing or stream the off the air signal from 101.4, that sould be fine what I read.

On the stream I can barely hear the jingles being played from B.

I think taking the FM feed would be a lot better than this set-up.

FM feed is properly processed with a DSPX, don't know what the stream handle the processing, but sometimes it sounds like there is no processing on the stream.
