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!

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

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

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.

Reset to Last Saved State Button on Profile
So whenever you make a change, say you increase your system volume, mess with some other sliders for whatever reason. The Red Dot appears next to your profile name to let you know it's been changed from its default, and currently there's no way (Without closing the whole program and restarting it) to set it back to its default settings. I think that would be very useful because sometimes, especially with youtube and stuff volume levels can differ greatly you might have to adjust during a stream or something and wnat to quickly get back to default volumes without restarting the app.

System clock
Add a clock that shows the computers time in the top left/right corner. The beacn mix (create) is the only non monitor screen I have and minimizing my game can take some time. The beacon mix (create) is always on anyways, so it would be a nice touch to enable a clock on the display (both american and military/euro time format pls).

Add Voice Focus Feature For Background Noise Supression
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.

Streamdeck Support
I know elgato is a competitor, but hear me out please! You could make this a paid plugin! Like say 25-50 lifetime price or something, giving us FULL support for control of the AWESOME Beacn software!! When I show fellow streamers the AWESOME Beacn software, the MAIN reason they dont get it, is NO streamdeck support! And they dont want to have to setup hotkeys, as when you goto fully controll ALL of the software, you will run out of hotkeys! People Will pay for this! If you want to run a poll on the Beacn Discord, you will get soooo many people that want this!! I am even willing to beta this for you!!

Add a toggle-able date and time to the top most bar on the beacn.
The top bar right now only has beacn in it. This is a terrible use of real estate on the screen. I suggest the date in the top left and the time in the top right. Make it toggleble (is this a word?) in the options so those that don't want it doesn't have to. Being geniuses this shouldn't take you more then like an hour or two to implement. Thanks for a great product. Cheers Aron.

Midi driver for BEACN MIX USB
I bought a BEACN Mix USB. I understand how it works, however, I would like to know if there would be any possibility for your team to develop a MIDI driver for a BEACN Mix USB, so it can function as a MIDI Controller instead. I would like to control different output levels or channel faders on my software (Logic Pro). Thanks in advance

Beacn mic monitor ai background noise removal
Implant an ai background noise removal like nvidia broadcast to beacn mic live monitor. Not to be confused with normal usuage this is just for stritctly live mic monitoring. This can help reduce echo, or background noise in loud enviroments or in small enviroments with more than one person in the same room gaming.

Extend hotkey support to Beacn Mics
The addition of hotkey support for Beacn mix profiles/functions is much appreciated. I have two very different Beacn Mic profiles, one for normal chat purposes, and one for ham radio purposes. Going into the app to change profiles is annoying; I would much rather just be able to tap a button on a StreamDeck to pick a mic profile. Would it be possible to extend the hotkey functionality to select mic profiles?
