KEY FEATURES High-quality stereo streaming Send full stereo audio in real time using a music-optimized codec. Connect a USB audio interface or wired headset for true left/right capture; mono sources are sent as clean dual-mono.

Reference tone and instant mute Send a 1 kHz, -18 dBFS line-up tone for level alignment, and mute instantly whenever you need to.
