James that looks really useful. If not for this then for other tasks I’d want to use it for. Thanks for the heads up.

Just to state the obvious, is there a reason you aren't pursuing an Ethernet solution? You can also do long TB runs if buy the ridiculously expense long optical cable.

Re: DP + Airfoil 2024?
Logistically your idea seems challenging. You’re wanting push play on the basement DP, then run upstairs and monitor it on that DP system?
Are you able to trigger the basement DP transport from the upstairs open DP-or some other means I’m not aware of?
Why not just mix the basement drums to a high-res WAV, drop it into Dropbox, then grab it from Dropbox upstairs and play it through that system? This is how I audition mixes on my downstairs laptop, created in my upstairs DP studio.
Of course, once in Dropbox I can audition from my iPhone’s Dropbox app in my car via CarPlay. VERY convenient!!
Just my .02-

Re: DP + Airfoil 2024?
Maybe Blue Cat's Connector (instead of Fader Hub) would be a solution. Again, latency may be an issue if not hardwired. Not sure what kind of performance you'd get in a WiFi 6 (or better) environment. Demos avaiable.Irimi Nage wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2024 4:23 pm James that looks really useful.

I initially suggested Connector, but he said he got artifacts using it. I suggest trying it again.CharlzS wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 6:33 amMaybe Blue Cat's Connector (instead of Fader Hub) would be a solution. Again, latency may be an issue if not hardwired.

You can do all this and a lot more with the free Avid Control app for iOS or Android. You just have to set up EuCon in the Control Surfaces Setup.

Yes I am able to control either computer from either location. I regularly access the various Macs in the house via the screen sharing app on desktop. It works great, been doing it for years now. So video and keyboard/mouse aren’t a problem whatsoever. It’s just a matter of getting usable quality wireless audio between rooms.
Re: DP + Airfoil 2024?
Sorry, I missed that. That's what I get for trying to speed read a thread. Anywho, I recently upgraded to a WiFi 6 capable router and the speed boost is significant. 6e and 7 suppose to be even better, but not sure how widely supported those are. Maybe jacking up the WiFi can help with glitching if you're not already there.James Steele wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 1:56 pmI initially suggested Connector, but he said he got artifacts using it.
