Stereo Tool

Hi,
We are currently using Stereo Tool to process the audio at our studio before sending it to our transmitters. We are considering upgrading to µMPX. This brings a few questions.
1- If we buy a µMPX licence, how many transmitters can we feed with it?
2- Can we use two network cards on the same computer, connected to two different ISP, to send µMPX to the same destination, to allow for redundancy?
3- For those who run ST on a Windows PC, how do you stay on air 24h /365 days? Do you block updates? Do you have a spare machine?
Thank you all!
Regards

Hi PaddyC,
Before we used STT to stream over internet to transmitter.
Now we send µMPX over internet.
1 - License to send is include into STT, but you pay a license to receive (one by µMpx decoder running)
2 - you can configure multiple address/port and choose the network used, then YES
3 - µMPX decoder start not as seervice, then you need to be login in to windows desktop to run it. Yes windows update are blocked. Never had a crash of µMpx.

In our case we have often a disconnect and need to restart STT (encoder) to retrieve the connection. Hope that with rist it will be more stable.

Hi,
Thank you very much for your aswers, they are very useful. I got an answer from Hans too and he does confirm what you say. I wasn't aware that I could already use µMPX with a ST FM professional license!
We will test it, I hope we don't get as many disconnects as you have.
