Running a Windows Service would allow for the Mix/Mix Create to continue functioning even if the application isn't running. Additionally Windows services can be configured to automatically restart themselves if they fail for some reason, unlike the Beacn application.

This feature is already available on the beacn mix...but I really would like to be able to change what my channels are called....for instance, I can rename Aux 1 to what I'm using it for. Not sure why the higher end beacn product didn't get this feature on release but would very much like to see it available soon!

Having the ability to route sound to other speakers/lines/devices on a PC via the routing table would be very useful.

It would be great to be able to create/add hardware devices to the mixer software. Currently you can only add one and being able to add a few more would be very useful for people who have other sound hardware/inputs on their PC they would like to include in the mix.

Actual percentage values as you adjust the sliders for each audio device in the BEACN app. As in if the slider for MUSIC is half way up as you hover the slider, the app will tell you that you're 50% for that slider.

I have a lot of sound devices as part of my streaming setup, and I have differing requirements for how they get used based on what I am doing. A great example is that I have two different microphones for two very different tasks, and never want them active in the same scene at the same time because that would create a lot of unwanted audio duplication. I accomplish this in OBS right now by having these devices added discretely in the OBS scene, so that the OBS Scene I want to use will have the desired audio devices in them. Virtual devices are a great way to accomodate this, if only they were available on PC2 which is where OBS lives. I got the BEACN Studio because I thought I would get access to ALL of these devices on both PCs, instead of a separate set of devices with more limited functionality. You cannot map Game/Chat/Music/etc to a Link device to send to the 2nd PC to be used as part of OBS, so you lose some of the mixing functionality by only being able to redirect hardware. Having two microphones means I've already cut the number of available sources in half. Not being able to map the Game/Chat/Music/System/etc virtual interfaces means I am discouraged from using them on PC1, which means a lot of the functionality of the device is devalued.

I'd love to be able to add more output tracks instead of the current 3 we have now, f.e. have only my spotify go to an audio track, but keep my game sounds and others on my audience track.

Would like the idea of when long pressing a knob, instead of defaulting every channel to the different output source; instead it would allow you to only use that one channel to a different output source. I want to be able to play my game audio through my headset but play maybe web or music through desktop speakers

As a streamer there may be times where you might want to do a karaoke stream or just plain sing along to music but with the virtual devices, this creates such a lag with your words and the music playing from windows. You will never be on beat or in rhythm with the track. It would be beneficial if a feature like adding latency to the music in order for the two to sync up would be great!

Currently does not support any Linux platform.

VST support: You already mentioned this in the roadmap, but it would still be good if you could equip your mics with EQs etc. in your software without having to use other software. Background change from BEACN: On your website you could already see another design + white/dark mode. Wouldn't it be cool to create your own "BEACN MIX/Create" in the software... Third-party support: I'll take Elagto as an example, it would be cool if there were third-party software for developers to make the beacn even more practical, with multiple backgrounds, software integrations or plugins in general. Mix Create 2: That came to my mind spontaneously when I saw the shape of the BEACN Mix Create. Wouldn't it be cool if there was a "counterpart" to the "L" shape? ;D These are my ideas to make your good products even better!

Custom themes was something that's been repeatedly promised in forms but I've yet to see. This would be a great feature that I think many assume this device would already have. Also, and more importantly to me anyway, being able to see which output device is selected on the display would be very nice. I swap between headphones and speakers a lot, it would be nice to not have to refer to the app on PC to know which one it's going to use.

Hey, I am a developer, and I LOVE to tweak a bit on everything and everything automated, so I would like the possibility of having a beacn API that would allow you to interact with the hardware to change sound levels, change profiles automatically (by pressing on a button of the streamdeck to change scene for example, change my audio level) etc...

Expand Knob functionality outside of BEACN For example being able to pause/resume media playback on knob press and skipping or going back to a previous track with knob rotation Or best solution to this all: let us make custom functionalities our self via developer options like a python library or other options Inspiration on how to do this could easily be gained from the Streamdeck

If you could make it so that for the BEACN Mix Create, you could create voice changer options like autotune, alien voice, reverb, announcer, walkitalkie, stuff like this and make them assignable to a button on the Mix Create, that would be incredible. I love to mess with my chat on twitch or my friends in game and it adds to the atmosphere and humor. It would be really cool if I could just assign the voice changers to their on button on the mix create. I would love it if these were features from BEACN not a company like "Voicemod" as i dont need a million different voice changing options but either a few standard options with more to be added over time. This would be an incredible piece for the software and the BEACN Mix Create.
