I’m getting ready to launch an Internet radio stream and want the on-air sound to be as polished as any professional station. My priority is audio setup and optimisation, from microphone chain through to the encoder that will feed my Icecast/Shoutcast server. Although the core project is for Internet radio, I also send occasional simulcasts to YouTube Live, so the chain you build should translate cleanly there too. Networking, servers and scheduling are already in place—I simply need your engineering ears and technical know-how to make the audio sparkle. What I expect from you • Analyse my existing gear (mics, mixer/interface, processors, software encoder). • Recommend and apply EQ, compression and loudness settings that meet streaming best practices. • Configure the encoder for consistent, artefact-free output. • Walk me through a live test stream and provide a quick reference sheet so I can replicate the settings. Work is in site only, in Woodland Hills, California. If you’ve tuned audio for Internet radio before—and especially if you’ve balanced levels for platforms like YouTube Live—let’s talk.

Hello, I’m interested in helping you optimize your Internet radio audio setup and create a professional broadcast-quality sound chain. I have experience with audio engineering, microphone processing, signal flow optimization, streaming encoders, and live broadcast audio workflows. I can evaluate your current equipment setup, identify improvements, and fine-tune the entire chain from microphone input through encoding for Icecast/Shoutcast and YouTube Live simulcasts. I can assist with: * Reviewing microphones, mixer/interface, processors, and software encoder configuration * Optimizing EQ, compression, gain structure, and loudness levels * Reducing noise, distortion, and streaming artifacts * Configuring encoder settings for stable, high-quality output * Conducting live testing and making real-time adjustments * Providing a simple reference guide so you can maintain the setup easily I understand the importance of consistency in professional broadcasting and will focus on creating a clean, balanced, and reliable sound that translates well across streaming platforms. I am available for on-site work in Woodland Hills, California, and would be happy to discuss your current setup, goals, and preferred broadcast style. Thank you for considering my proposal. I look forward to helping you achieve a polished professional radio sound.
