Ideas, Requests, and Feedback

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!

Currently does not support any Linux platform.

Currently when you resize the desktop application the text quickly becomes unreadable. Using scrollbars or resizing non-text elements first would result in a much cleaner and more usable UI.

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

Some games (Rocksmith for example) only support 48khz sample rates by default. You can force change it using a daw but it would be nice to be able to set it natively.

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.

While BEACN Mix create is an awesome product, for the ultimate audio control it'd be great to have the controller with faders instead of knobs (or if we include knobs, let it be knobs as an addition to the faders, not the other way around). Volume faders are way more intuitive for people coming from an audio background and the ones who use other audio hardware.

Implement a feature similar to Elgato Voice Focus feature where the background noise is removed or minimize, which is works better than Noise Suppression. This will help content creator without a studio room handle background noises.

Would like an API preferably Websocket so that we can connect softwares like stream management software can manage the mixing studio or other parts from my stream software, E.g when I change scenes it mutes one audience out put and unmutes another ect.

I own the Beacn studio and while I love it, I see other interfaces with features that are superior. Mostly software, think VST plugins, specific mic presets for the studio so we can just select “Rode procaster” or “SM7B” and go from there with EQ. Ability to change sample rates to the more commonly compatible 48khz etc. The software is great but when you see products that are in similar or significantly cheaper price brackets that are much more feature rich, then notice the lack of updates to the community relating to planned improvements and additions, can’t help but feel that loads of us have wasted money and time on these products that are seemingly getting nearer and nearer to EOL support levels. WE NEED UPDATES!

I'm using NVIDIA Share for flashback recordings cause OBS is too clunky and less stealthy for that for me and I'm basically using my speakerless monitor DP output as the Audience Mix, which I then record through the nvcontainer.exe for the times I'm not streaming But the BEACN app often resets the nvcontainer process output to System on the BEACN and I then have to juggle using Eartrumpet and drag and drop the process in and out of the mixes in the BEACN app to get it to bind to the correct audio output. Would love to see an option like maybe "Other outputs >" when you click on a process in the BEACN app, listing non Mix Create outputs for you to bind the process to any other audio interface you have (pretty much the whole list you have in the Personal Mix or Audience Mix Device dropdown menu). It probably would also help it stick constantly on reboot because randomly at times the binding resets and I have to do the whole manipulation to rebind my process which can be as easy as 2 clics and one drag'n'drop or a whole list of profile switching for refresh and fiddling around with multiple operations, it isn't really constant it feels

Have the ability to add computer stats onto the screen or a whole new beacn device for a sensor display to have uniformity of devices and keep the look.

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.

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...
