About

MixerBridge

Read full description

MixerBridge lets live-sound engineers monitor venue audio and control digital mixing consoles from anywhere over the internet โ€” 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 - Real-time level meters, with multiple viewers at the same time - Talkback to the venue through your device microphone - Multi-site support โ€” switch between venues without dropping the connection - Automatic reconnection and self-recovery if the network hiccups 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 or connecting to the mixer. 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 โ€” 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. MixerBridge is a product of PREECHA MUSIC Co., Ltd.
