Ideas, Requests, and Feedback

The ability to control profiles and other elements from the Stream Deck or at least through hotkeys would be very helpful. I have different stream layouts that I trigger using multi-step commands on my Stream Deck, which include BEACN profiles. Right now, I have to remember to make the profile switches in the BEACN software manually.

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!

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.

We already have the ability to control the personal mix in the UI. I would love to see the ability to control the personal mix volume on the knobs by adding the personal mix as a source in the drag-and-drop area.

The ability to control existing audio devices (virtual or physical) like the Beacn Mix. A lot of equipment streamers are using nowadays will come with its own set of virtual audio devices (Goxlr, Elgato XLR and Microhpones, Presonus Revelator, Headsets with their own mixes, etc), and it can get a bit too much. It would be really nice if the Mix Create could control existing devices like the Mix does, and/or potentially make it optional for the Mix Create to add it's own virtual devices, so you can decide if you need them or not.

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.

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

In my opinion the sidebar takes up way to much useful space inside of the Beacn App. A way to compress it to a smaller formfactor or completely woud be amazing and give you room to see even more sources at once. Most people probably use 1 - 3 profiles anyways. I personally need just one and the basically full unused space kind of feels wasted. :) I created an example on how that could look. Of course this is by no means a professional Interface design, but i thought a visual concept could help!

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!

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.

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 useful to have a "master" volume knob/control that would allow the beacn mix device to attenuate/scale the volume for all other mix channels. This is something that the Windows volume mixer has, as well as many games and other programs. This improvement would make it easy to scale all audio up or down.
