PROFILE WINDOW
The Profile Window is where users can Add, Remove, Save, and Duplicate their Profiles. Profiles are designed to help users be able to quickly and easily switch between various audio setups.
DEVICE COLUMN
The Device Column displays all connected devices and their various modules. Clicking on the device icon will expand/contract the device modules to save space. This is also where the Mixing Window lives, located at the very top.
EQUALIZER AND ENHANCEMENT SUITE
If and when creators need to adjust their microphone settings, most of the time it is done through the equalizer and enhancement suite. We have this anchored to the top of the window so it is always accessible.
SECONDARY PLUGINS
While no less important, secondary plugins are adjusted less often than the equalizer and therefore are placed in a tabbed view down below.
MIC OUTPUT AND OUTPUT GAIN
The Mic Output and Output Gain are the end of a user’s microphone chain. The Mic Output meter tells you exactly how loud you are coming in to your computer. The Output Gain gives users an additional volume boost if they are too quiet.
VOICE RECORDER
The Voice Recorder lets users record up to a 10 second clip that will be replayed through their microphone chain. Changes made to the user’s microphone chain are reflected in real time so a user doesn’t need to continue speaking to hear how their adjustments sound.
SETTING UP BEACN STUDIO IN APP
In The BEACN App, set Voice Chat Mic (BEACN Studio) as your Default Device and Default Communication device under Recording Devices, and set System (BEACN Studio) as your default device and Chat (BEACN Studio) as your Default Communication device under Playback Devices.
