Setup Guides

Step-by-step instructions for connecting your DJ software to FixedBit Streams.

Which Software Should I Use?

Just getting started?

Use BUTT (Broadcast Using This Tool). It is free, works on every platform, and takes less than two minutes to configure. Most Second Life DJs start here.

Want professional mixing?

VirtualDJ or Mixxx give you full mixing capabilities with built-in broadcast output. VirtualDJ is the most popular among SL DJs who mix live. Mixxx is free and open-source.

Running an automated station?

SAM Broadcaster, RadioBoss, or PlayIt Live handle scheduled playlists, jingles, and unattended broadcasting. SAM Broadcaster is the most feature-rich. PlayIt Live is free.

On a Mac?

Audio Hijack lets you capture audio from any application and broadcast it. Pair it with your favorite DJ app for maximum flexibility. Note: Audio Hijack supports Icecast only.

Streaming from mobile?

Altacast is the go-to option for streaming from Android or iOS devices.
