MixerBridge lets live-sound engineers monitor venue audio, control digital mixing consoles, and record or stream the show with the real mixer sound — from anywhere over the internet, as if you were standing at the console. Connect to your venue through a secure, private tunnel, listen to the live mix in real time, and point your favourite console app at the real mixer on site. No public IPs, no port forwarding, no complicated network setup. KEY FEATURES - Low-latency live audio monitoring (Opus / WebRTC) - Remote connection and control for Behringer WING, X32/M32, X-Air/M-Air, and Allen & Heath (SQ/Qu/CQ/dLive) - Works with Mixing Station, X32-Edit, M32-Edit and other console apps on the same device - Several mixers per venue: pick the console you want to control - Real-time level meters, with multiple viewers at the same time - Talkback to the venue through your device microphone - Multi-site support — switch between venues without dropping the connection - Automatic reconnection and self-recovery if the network hiccups RECORD & LIVE STREAM - Record video with the camera while the audio comes straight from the mixer, not the phone microphone - Live-stream to your own RTMP/RTMPS destination while recording - Optional logo and text watermark - Mix in the phone microphone for crowd ambience, with its own fader - Stereo level meters, focus/exposure lock, zoom, frame rate and resolution up to 4K (device permitting) - Recordings are saved to your Photos library HOW IT WORKS Install a MixerBridge Audio Agent on a computer at the venue (connected to your mixer by LAN), or use a ready-made Audio Box. Sign in from the app, pick your site, and start listening, connecting to the mixer, or recording. Your console apps reach the mixer through MixerBridge as though they were on the same local network. Note: MixerBridge uses a VPN (WireGuard) solely to reach your own mixer — a split tunnel limited to the mixer's network. It is not a general-purpose VPN and does not route your regular internet traffic. Full functionality requires a MixerBridge account and an on-site Audio Agent. Recording and streaming are available on sites where your account has recording access. MixerBridge is a product of PREECHA MUSIC Co., Ltd.
