Dear Streamers,
This weekend sees the first edition of Reveil a 24 hour Dawn Chorus project by Grant Smith.Reveil is largely dependent on the Locusonus streams. So if you can get yours up and running that would be greatly appreciated. More info: http://soundcamp.self-noise.net/
To make this easier we have developed an app for Android telephones which you can download here.
http://locusonus.org/downloads/
Once you have installed the app you simply enter your locustream map login and pass and you can start steaming. If you enable GPS, your stream location will be updated automatically on the map. For those of you who are willing to get up before dawn on Saturday you are strongly encouraged to stream from a remote location (as long as you have 3G or WiFi coverage). Please be sure that you only connect to your account with one device at a time
More details concerning the app installation:
/The Locuscast app for android allows you to stream a 44.100 mono oggvorbis stream to the locustream soundmap from your android device. It will automatically locates your stream on the map using GPS. An iOS version will be available soon. /
/After downloading locustream app navigate to you downloads folder and click the locuscast.apk to install. Be sure that 'Unknown sources' is enabled in security settings./
/Once the app is installed you simply need to enter your locus sound map identity and password, enable location functions (GPS) and you can start streaming. /
/You will obtain better results by using an external microphone. We have tested the iRig microphone pre-amp which provides phantom power via a 9v battery and enables the connection of any type of mike with an XLR connector./
