I use an Android phone like many of the other commentators and look forward to that support. With that said, I've done enough reading on APP development to understand why companies only support IOS in the beginning stages.

[@ChristianGC7]

Jon Burton do you need a real WiFi signal or can you use the router and using that signal just to connect with the computer and mixer?

[@jonburton3517]

Christian Guerrero it’s really important that you use a Router that is NOT connected to the internet. so yes you should use a router with at least one 5G band. It should be a strong router so expect to spend around 2 to $300 on one unless you can find a used one.

[@ChristianGC7]

Jon Burton ohh wow, umm why can’t it be connected to the internet?

[@jonburton3517]

Christian Guerrero because when you connect the router to the internet, you end up getting to much interference and your router ends up working to hard to keep up with all the signals. You will end up getting Latency and Drop outs regularly. You want your router to basically be a wireless conduit between your soundboard, MacBook, and SoundCaster applications on stage. Of course you will want to plug your soundboard and Mac straight into your router. Also you need to be sure to turn off WiFi on your MacBook so that it is only getting and sending signal directly from and to the router with an Ethernet cable. I’m sorry if it sounds complicated :/ it really is simpler than it sounds.

[@fbcruston1]

[@worshiptutorials]

I think most of it is because Apple is so closed off when it comes to hardware/software integration. Only Apple makes the both the hardware/devices and the software, so they can completely standardize everything. It's a double-edged sword. On one hand, you really limit flexibility of the end user (including the options for hardware like computers and mobile devices), but on the other hand, developing for it is much, much easier and typically more successful.

I NEED HELP WITH RECORDING AUDIO At our church... we use a Beringer 24 Chanel.. I am not sure what to use to record our worship services. I tried Audacity, connecting with aux cables through the mic input on the laptop the music is just noisy and bad. Any help please

[@finlayapps7479]

Some mixers have USB that will plug right into the laptop. If that's the case for you, just use the same method as you already did but choose the USB source instead on the built in mic. Otherwise use line in instead of mic. Failing that try turning the aux output on the mixer right down. Aux will likely be outputting at line level which is much louder than mic level. If it still doesn't work buy a cheap USB audio interface that has line inputs and record that.

[@marcosroldan4297]

so I got an interface presonus ione usb can I use that without the mixer? or do I need both? because I got an analog mixer and I don't have a digital mixer but I do got a interface. can it work? pls help

[@AudioFusionSystems]

You could use the ione by itself. SoundCaster would recognize the one channel when you connect it by USB. If you want all the channels from your analog mixer you would have to run a split of the analog signals into an audio interface or small digital mixer with enough analog inputs to handle the number of channels you need to convert to digital. The Presonus 1824 ($450), for example, would convert 10 channels of analog to digital.

hello, im so interested in this, i have seen one app like this before too, but i mere forgot, and now my quesion is, will this work on GARAGE BAND OR LOGIC PRO X?

[@AudioFusionSystems]

Any DAW, including Garage Band and Logic can send tracks to a mixer where they mix with the live instruments and all come back together over the same USB for Audio Fusion. But, if you want to broadcast the output from Garage Band or Logic directly you would need to use a third party software to go directly from a DAW to SoundCaster without leaving the Mac. Dante Via is one of the best ($59 from Audinate)

Today SoundCaster will broadcast up to 16 channels to as many as 16 devices. Every musician gets the same 16 channels but they control volume and panning on each channel to create their own custom mix completely separate from the 16 aux outputs on the X32.

[@augustus_erich]

does it work with analog mixers with an USB out?

[@AudioFusionSystems]

Unfortunately the analog mixers will USB out are, usually, just a L/R stereo mix for recording. That USB connection would not give you the each channel that you can control separately. You would need to run a split of your channels into an audio interface or small digital mixer to get multi-channel audio into the Mac.

[@ChristosBassCovers]

What is it broadcasting ... Aux ... pfl channel, can we get efx send

[@AudioFusionSystems]

SoundCaster will broadcast the audio, channel by channel, from any digital audio source you can connect to a Mac. With most digital mixers these days, SoundCaster is broadcasting the USB outs. that means it can broadcast the raw (pre fade, pre EQ, pre FX) audio. But, many mixers give you a lot of flexibility in what you route to the USB out so you can send sub-mixes with EQ/FX or warm up a single channel with EQ/FX by choosing a post pick off point.

[@drsgd28]

Pls make available soon for Android

[@guilevitabh]

Sounds great! But what about the delay / latency in a non-lab environment (depending on the distance from the router). It's gonna be fine to make some real testing from the audio fusion team with measures from the wifi quality of signal and time responses.

[@AudioFusionSystems]

Today the latency is fixed in our algorithm so the variation in distance from the router would only cause more jitter in the Wi-Fi signal. That would not add more latency but could present in some small sound quality issues. Thats the trade off. Latency vs Sound Quality. We are coming out with a new version of SoundCaster later this year that will give the user a little control over the latency settings so that you can take advantage of low jitter set ups like using Power-Over Ethernet to your backline.

I‘d love to hear about your experience with audio fusion in like 3-6 month, because I think, like with any other technology ever, you’ll experience some smaller or bigger caveats once you really start using it. Some questions I’d have: A. How much latency does it produce? Can you really use it parallel to an existing wireless in-ear solution? B. How reliable is it? Do you experience signal loss, app freeze, whatever? C. How good is the audio quality?

So what's the situation with Android nowadays?

[@TimothyFish]

I wonder why they don't just send a low powered signal using a radio frequency. Cell phones have a radio receiver built in and for low power I don't think you have to have a license. This would get rid of the network bandwidth issues and the latency problems.

[@jeremyvaught09]

What’s the full system latency? There’s a lot of “parts” to this system. I’d be interested in seeing what latency is with the X32 using different connection methods like Dante or the USB. Also, does latency increase with each device connected?

[@worshiptutorials]

I asked Brandon about this, and he said the inherent latency in their system is almost 0 - it's so low that you'd never detect it. But in real world usage the actual latency will depend on a lot of factors outside of their system like the board itself, the router, etc. He did say if you're using a recommended router and a modern digital console, latency is not an issue - it's so low you can't detect it.

[@AudioFusionSystems]

The latency is fixed regardless of the number of devices you connect. But it is affected by the gear you are using. You can try it for free in Gear Test Mode and hear it for yourself! There is latency but, as Brian mentioned, most musicians can't perceive it.

[@diiivad]

Also consider the fact that you can’t rely on your musicians to always bring their IPHONE’s charged (I’m guilty of that) yet alone even have iPhones, so you gotta consider the cost of buying the newest iPod touch or unlocked iPhone’s ($749 minimum) for everyone which, keep in mind, have a shelf life of operating at 100% for only a few years and could have software issues over time. Which that alone tells me as a manager of God’s money it’s probably not a wise investment. Then you gotta consider the cost of a dedicated router.

Jake had a dropout because he had the router located in the back of the sound booth. Once you have the router located ON THE STAGE, dropout problem are gone.

Hey Brian it would be great if we can use our AirPods as a inear monitor, something to think about.

[@tompparmp9928]

Bluetooth = latency. So no.

[@documentingordinarythoughts]

Latency ?

[@AudioFusionSystems]

I've played with dozens of musicians and used the system live more than 100 times personally. Most of the musicians I play can;t even perceive the latency but you can try it yourself for free. Download SoundCaster from the Mac app store and try it in Gear Test Mode.

[@cacawachi]

Ready in the 123 count vs click I heard a small latency.... Since they barely mention anything about such an important issue, is suspicious...

[@AudioFusionSystems]

The latency will be a little different for everyone depending on your mixer or interface, etc. I've played live with the system more than 100 times with dozens of different musicians. Most can't even perceive it. The great thing is you can try it for free. Download SoundCaster from the Mac app store and run it for free in Gear Test Mode to hear the sound quality for yourself and make sure your WiFi router is capable.

@@AudioFusionSystems What is the best case in Numbers, worst case, typical please?

[@AudioFusionSystems]

@@davemarshall9153 I don't have numbers for you but I can tell you that, today, our algorithm is fixed to provide the absolute lowest latency possible while still delivering great sound quality. What SoundCaster is delivering today is based on the hundreds of beta testers that used the system and more than 500 churches and bands that have purchased the system since it was released. Coming soon we plan to release a new version of SoundCaster and Performer that will give you some control over the level of buffering that will allow you to take advantage of ultra low latency set-ups like using power-over-ethernet. I hope you will download SoundCaster and hear it for yourself!

[@davemarshall9153]

@@AudioFusionSystems I understand you not wanting to post numbers. But saying that you don't have numbers is misleading. You have tested numbers on best case scenarios. Ect. With that kind of beta testing you have to have numbers. Have a blessed day

[@AudioFusionSystems]

@@davemarshall9153 We just wouldn't want to give you any numbers that could be misleading one way or the other. Even in beta testing we can't really know exactly how much latency each user is experiencing. All we can control is the tiny amount our software compensates for jitter . I hope that you will trust enough to give it a chance, the people like Brian @worshiptutorials and our users who have heard it themselves. You can also join the 600+ in our facebook group: Audiofusion Users (Official) to get their perception of the latency in their set-ups

[@AudioFusionSystems]

We don't post numbers because it will be different for everyone. We only provide the software. The gear you use to do the initial A/D conversion and the jitter of your Wi-Fi all will affect the number. I've played live with the system more than 100 times with dozens of musicians who can't even perceive the latency. I hope you will download SoundCaster and try it for yourself in Gear Test Mode.

Great idea. Need the system to send full 32 channels

@@bandman1970 if you could get away with a combination of individual channels and sub-mixes (like you would using P16s) then you can use the flexible routing of the X32. If you want to be able to control all 32 channels, you can use the X32 app to control each of the 8 stereo mixes while using Performer to deliver the audio on the same phone in the background. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIuamqSihZitotk

There is, of course, latency in the system but most musicians won't be able to perceive it. You can test it for free in Gear Test Mode and I'll tell you that I've played live with the system more than 100 times with dozens of different musicians.

Welcome to the dongle life :).

[@BIBSTERSrepairshop]

Suddenly there is an influx of wireless gear on reverb

[@user-gz7vv6uu7b]

So affordable! You only need a Mac, iPhones for every musician and a powerfull router. Plus the $99 for the software for each musician. Sounds pretty expensive to me.

[@worshiptutorials]

Compared to buying wireless in ear units for every musician, it's a fraction of the price. With a traditional system you're looking at $1000 per musician, plus the cost of a monitoring system like Aviom, which itself is thousands (unless you use a board that has that kind of thing built in). Even if you don't have any of the hardware for Audio Fusion, you can buy what you need for about $1000-1200 (the computer and the router), and then the cost per musician for wireless in ears is about $300 ($200 for the iOS device and $100 per musician for Audio Fusion). It's still way, way cheaper.

[@user-gz7vv6uu7b]

@@worshiptutorials You mentioned the Behringer X32, has everything you need. No need for the Aviom. And an iphone for $200? Can't find these here, they start at ~$700. Plus the new iphones don't even have a headphone jack, so for serious in-ear monitoring, it is totally useless.. $300 is the price for a decent, no-brand-bunny, wireless in-ear system. Even a Sure start at $450, which I would always prefer before the iphone solution. And then, no need for the Mac and the additional router.

[@ironblast5]

@@user-gz7vv6uu7b I'm using behringer a x18 mixer for $250 Audio 2000s system for iems $180 bgvp dm6 iems for $180 and a behringer p16d distributer and p16m personal mixer for about $350ish. Imho its a way cheaper and more stable option compared to this.

[@tompparmp9928]

True, and right now it seems like the companies that are supporting multiple platforms are getting better performance out of Windows 10 than they are out of Mac. If Apple doesn't do something soon, I think a lot of people will end up moving to a different platform.

Hi Ian, each connection is a one time purchase of $99 but you only need a connection for each musician that is connected on stage. You might have 15 or more musicians in your rotation but if you have 5 on stage, you would only need to own 5 connections. $99 for a wireless, stereo, IEM receiver with personal monitor mixing capability?
