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.

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.

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.

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

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.

any application that is not currently assigned to a knob will automatically fall under an "other" assignment that is able to then be controlled by another knob I like to have my hardware volume at a level fairly higher than the level that i normally use for my applications so then in the event that I want one louder, I can simply increase the volume for that specific application without changing my hardware volume which would then affect the volume of every other application having applications that are not assigned to a knob be controlled by an "other" assignment means that something like system sounds or a new game or any other application that I'm booting up for the first time doesn't start out at a drastically louder volume than the rest of my computer before I'm able to manually adjust the volume of that application, either through assigning it to a knob or using the windows sound mixer

When default devices are set the way the beacn app wants them volume controls on keyboards or the windows ui do nothing, have them adjust the actual master output volume

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!

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.

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

Really simple idea: Have the beacnmic change colour for different event alerts, like followers, subs, bits, channelpoints etc. Make the mic rgb ring more interactive.

I'd love the ability to toggle between my personal / audience mix on the Mix Create while still listening to my personal mix at all times. If I need to turn up a channel to my audience, but not myself, I need to > mute mic > toggle to audience mix > make the change > toggle back to personal mix > unmute mic. Also, I have noticed if I toggle to Audience mix and my mic picks up any sound, a terrible and loud reverb and robot noises play back through the channel. Very annoying.

The idea is to be able to set something like, "Anything that starts with this path by default goes under this knob." The first thing that came to mind was games and how the Steam, Blizzard, Epic, etc., paths can be targeted so that anytime we launch a game it automatically goes under the game slider. As long as users are able to set the paths themselves then this automatic grouping can be set for tons of apps that tend to group their tools under the same starting directory.
