Yeah, I've noticed it's a little different. I think the beds are less noticeable, aren't they?

Weidly was going to mention this. The beds seem to disappear when they have the fader at a certain level. Im having a pretty certain good ish guess its because they dont have the main station compression to bring certain levels up.

Or they're not in the same output, do we tend not to hear them in videos anyway?

The feed for the video is coming straight from the desk, so will sound different because it hasn't got the normal processing on it.

The FM does have the proper processing on it, and is technically the best of the feeds.

A separate feed is used for Radio 1 on TVs, like satellite.

The normal online feed is poor quality because it comes from the satellite feed, so has gone quite a way through the transmission chain before we hear it.

All digital feeds are behind analogue ones.

Mmm, well, it sounds great to me! But then again, I have like HD speakers that make my audio sound brighter and full. I noticed that on here, I have a 65kbps feed that sounds like FM quality, but on the Windows based machine, it's only 44kbps and awful mono audio quality.

What's sadder is that the audio online sounds 100x better than on my SIRIUS.

Your speakers probably have a processing unit or EQ settings on which make it sound better than it really is. Just like FM.......

That pretty much what i said but heres another geaky fact for you. The playout system will have a small amount of compression itself so everything it plays will to a small extent be processed.

On FM it will then be further processed along with voices which go through several processers (mainly computerised).....thats why in the presenters headphones there is a 1second delay from them talking to them hearing it.........Most presenters simply get used to it or flick to a desk feed during links.

No idea where you've got this from... Also there might be a minuscule delay occasionally it will rarely be noticeable. All the presenters I know monitor straight off air.

Switching to desk feed during links would defeat the object of wearing headphones to check the levels, because everything sounds different post-processing.

I've got this from it being like this everywhere i've worked! Perhaps 1sec delay was abit over the top, but i was trying to get it accross, but there is a delay which can be offputing at first for some presenters. The delay will vary slightly depending what station it is and what processers they are using.

Switching to desk feed is a bad idea, yes, but some presenters dont like having the slight bounceback from them speaking to them hearing it. Wearing headphones is because the speakers cut out when they put the mics up otherwise they would get feedback. They have level moniters,limiters, compression for checking levels, etc.....

Having said all this, the BBC will have developed there processors so much that the delay will be smaller than most/ever commercial station that have voice processers......

I wonder if the 'Now Playing' thing is broken because they keep just putting images up. Either that or he's playing differant music than they thought......

I seem to remember Moyles mentioning 'flipping a switch' to go to desk feed when guests come in, otherwise it can be a bit too disconcerting for them.

Not really related to moyles but so far the 'Switch' video stream isn't a patch on Moyles'....mainly because switch is boring (i think)......I wonder if Aled is going to be on the video stream later on?

Also, just watched this on the CM blog. 3.28 is very very funny!

    • Richie Anderson in for Rylan tomorrow.
    • Mylo and Rosie said at the end of their show today that they would also be on Early Breakfast on Thursday 24th July (even though the schedule still says Dean)
    • James is in for Dean from Monday 11th to Thursday 14th August. Dean is in for Greg from Monday 11th to Friday 15th August. Jaguar is in for Sarah on Friday 15th August.
    • Tara Kumar is in for Alyx on Sunday 13th July.
    • Conor Knight & Lauren Layfield are in for Matt & Mollie on Monday 14th July.  Matt is solo on Tuesday 15th July.  Jerry is in for Mollie between Wednesday 16th & Thursday 24th July.  Maia Beth is covering Future Pop on Wednesday 16th & Wednesday 23rd July. On Sunday 27th July the Chillest Show is reduced to an hour, and 20.00-21.00 is a BBC Proms special with JADE. On Thursday 31st July 18.00-20.00 in place of Jack's show it's the Dance Party Warm-Up with Danny Howard (ahead of the Ibiza weekend).
    • Dean McCullough in for Greg w/c 4th August. James Cusack on EB.
    • Well looks like Mollie is off all month now so presumably a personal matter. 
    • Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?
    • Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.
    • Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!
    • Jamie Laing’s last show before his summer break will be on Wednesday 16th July.
    • I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days 
    • Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.
    • With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.
    • Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now
