  2. VST support, BEACN background change, 3rd party support and Mix Create 2?

    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!

  3. Custom themes and display which output device is selected.

    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.

  4. Run Beacn as a Windows Service

    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.

  5. Developper API

    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...

  6. Expanding Knob functionality

    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

  7. Changing chanell name/label

    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!

  8. Voice Changing Effects(Autotune, reverb, etc)

    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.

  9. Add ability to add more hardware inputs

    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.

  10. Screensaver/Gifs

    It would be nice to be able to set an image as a screensaver or a wallpaper on my BEACN Mix. I love the product, and it sits next to my stream deck mini. That large screen would be fantastic to put a pokemon gif or a wallpaper on! I saw that you all added some different themes to the main screen. Good job on that as well, I love a fresh look on my setup every few days. Thanks, Doug

  11. BEACN Mic Pro

    I love my Mic and since the release day i don't want to go back to SM7B because of the comfort of 'all in one' and LED strip. But I would love to see a more premium version of the Mic. Better capsule — would love to see this mic in podcasts. More reliable USB-C port — my mic disconnects and instanlty reconnects when i barely touch the cable. Even more features — better Noise Supression, maybe Echo Cancellation, onboard VST support(?). More Mic colors and improved LED strip? Probably, it is not very profitable economically, but hey, it's just an idea! :)

  12. BEACN Mix/create auto save / restore

    Add a check box to the app to have the mix autosave whenever a change is made. Separate check boxes for different things to autosave would be a bonus. This way nothing is ever lost for configuration on restart and application volume is set to where it was last on system restart. Ex: Volume levels / mute Application settings Profile Etc.

  13. Map Profiles to OBS Scenes

    By mapping profiles to specific OBS scenes, it would mean that switching scenes in OBS could adjust your audio levels automatically! Imagine that swapping to your "BRB" scene will mute your system sounds and mic, but still have your music playing! Or swapping to your "Game" scene in OBS has your game volume at level that's just perfect for the stream. You get the idea - easy automation for one-person streamers without needing a producer! ;-).

  14. Mono Track Option

    Just a simple button somewhere in the software to have the option to switch any of the stereo channels to output as mono to all sources.

  15. Beacn USB Shotgun Mic

    Basically the exact same functionality and features as the Beacn Mic but with a shotgun mic to get it out of view if you wanted. This would be sick.
