Thanks for that.
Only problem is that they're using a mixer and with what ya described here it sounds like if we did it your way we would be taking the mixer out of the picture and they'd rather use that since they like the sound of it. I'll keep your directions around though, just in case their situation ever changes or if anything else happens that might necessitate them re-doing their setup.

Chris. The best way to do this is by using one winamp to play music and the second winamp to do the actual broadcast.
I have both winamp's set to not allow multiple instances. Set the shortcut so that you add a /class= line after each winamp
so for example your first winamp used for playing would be:
c:\program files\winamp\winamp.exe /class=playing
This first winamp should not have any dsp effects and should only have the crossfader installed.
Now have a second winamp put it in say winamp2 or what I use is "broadcasting Winamp" so my shortcut looks like this:
c:\program files\broadcasting winamp\winamp.exe /class=broadcasting
Now, this winamp should have the stereo linerec input plugin installed in it as well as the sam encoders and the audio
stalker limiter. When you start with winamp press control-l and type linerec:// in the open url. don't forget the :// in
case your punctuation is turned off.
Now what is happening is everything your computer is outputting out through it's audio assuming you are using what you hear
or mixer recording will be recorded by the linerec input plugin. this means, music, open mic, etc will all be fed into that
plugin. that broadcasting winamp will then compress the audio as needed, mic, music, etc, and broadcast it out over the
net.
Good luck and if you need any clarification please let me know.
