Improving Audio Processing
CRTV holds great pride on sounding amazing! That’s why we process our audio in-house using Thimeo Stereo Tool. We built our audio processing from the ground up to sound great, no matter what speakers you are using, using our background in audio engineering! Listening to CRTV, you will always notice the audio sounding significantly better. CRTV doesn’t just go “balls to the walls” for processing, we go for quality, currently on v52 of our processing settings, CRTV continues to push the boundaries of what we can sound like.
Music Library Switch to FLAC
(Finished)
We love how our music sounds. Due to some changes with our music provider, CRTV is switching the entirety of the library to FLAC from MP3. This will make a HUGE difference in the sound quality, especially in processing. Thimeo Stereo Tool loves to have more data to play with. With these changes, we aim to keep CRTV sounding the greatest it can.
CRTV Music-Only Simulcast (Finished)
CRTV understands that on busy weather days, or when there are multiple emergencies across the country, the EAS alerts that do not affect your area get to be a bit much, especially when you are listening to the music. Due to this, we have set up a CRTV Simulcast that bypasses all EAS audio, including all audio processing! It sounds just as good as the normal broadcast, getting all the same Thimeo Stereo Tool processing. No more EAS interruptions for those who don’t want it!
