Backed by BEACNs powerful audio processing and management software, the Studio makes it simple to sound your best.

The BEACN Studio is up against some stiff competition if it wants a place in your setup though.

Its almost a little too pared back for my liking though.

Features

Of course, any streaming mixer isnt just the unit that comes in the box.

This app is free, and you dont even need aBEACN Micto use it in your own setup.

Again, the largely drag-and-drop UI is easy to pick up for newbies and feature-rich for experienced players.

The real benefit though is the submixes that let you control who hears what and at what volume.

Most of this is possible without the BEACN Studio, however.

Fortunately, PS5 support is available, which even theRodeCaster Duodoesnt have on its CV.
