Yes. Assuming that the transmitter does not filter out or otherwise process (boost, pre-emphasis) the high frequencies.

Don't use a mixer after the Maya44. The output of the Maya44 should be connected directly to the transmitter, with a good quality cable - and a shorter cable is better.

In the PC! The signal from the Maya must go directly into the transmitter, so if you want to use both a laptop and a PC, then the Maya goes into the PC.

Thanks for registering :-)

so the set goes like this ...

the line out of laptop with winamp or any other program for broadcast goes to mixer and the out of a mixer to in of pc with maya44 and ST , and the out of pc to transmiter .

is that corect ??

sorry again !

Yes, That's Correct!

Later you can use another Lapotop or pc or Cd Player or any other source, to connect it to mixer.

Point is that Master from mixer must go in Maya's input > processed by Stereotool > and Output from Maya to transmitter.
Choose Maya's L or R output for Transmitter.

Please check:
0. In the FM settings window: Stereo encoding and RDS encoding enabled? And you're really using the FM output, not the normal output?
1. In the Maya44 settings window: If the output sample rate is really 176.4 or 192 kHz
2. In the Stereo Tool FM window (sound cards window in Stand Alone version): If there are errors reported (see top left of the window)
3. If this is all ok: Is the stereo LED of the receiver on?

If (3) fails: Then the transmitter is probably filtering out higher frequencies. Also, if you have "FM Pre-emphasis" enabled, do you hear far too much highs in the output? If so, then the transmitter is also pre-emphasizing, which it also shouldn't.

Can you tell us what was wrong? That might help someone else who has the same problem... Or, if something is unclear, help me to improve things.
