Does your mix hold up on a phone speaker? That's where a lot of people will hear it. Mixaphone sends your mix from your DAW to your phone over Wi-Fi, so you can hear it there while you work. Put the Mixaphone plug-in on your master bus, open this app on the same Wi-Fi and tap your studio. The mix plays from your phone's speaker. No bouncing, no exporting, no sending files to yourself. Move a fader and hear the change on the phone. On good Wi-Fi the delay is short and steady. In our tests the phone played in time with a MacBook's own speakers. Everything is on one screen. Tap your studio to listen and tap Receiving to stop. A meter shows the signal, and the whale sends out sonar rings with the beat. More than one studio on your Wi-Fi? Swipe between them. Stream quality starts on Auto, which adjusts to your Wi-Fi. Prefer a fixed buffer? Pick Low latency, Balanced or Stable in Settings. Keep the app open while you listen. The screen stays on until you stop. Your mix stays on your own Wi-Fi. No account, no ads. This app needs the Mixaphone plug-in, sold separately at humpbackaudio.com. The plug-in runs on a Mac (AU and VST3) and on Windows (VST3), in DAWs such as Logic Pro, GarageBand, Ableton Live, Cubase, FL Studio, Bitwig Studio and REAPER. Your phone and your computer need to be on the same Wi-Fi.
