How would you incorporate iConnectivity’s PlayAUDIO1U audio/MIDI interface into your live performances? Let us know in the comments what hurdles you encounter in live shows, and be sure to stop by Sweetwater for a detailed look at the full suite of possibilities afforded by the PlayAUDIO1U from iConnectivity 👉 sweetwater.sjv.io/iConnectivity_PlayAUDIO1U
I would need a version of this with inputs as well as outputs. My current live setup uses an RME Fireface connected to Ableton Live. I have live guitar input running into Live running ToneX and Amplitube, and backing vocals from two mics into a Live vocal chain. Live is also handling playout of backing tracks split into various channels for drums, bass, keyboards, etc. In addition to the main mix output, I have separate in-ear mixes for each member of the band. All of this is sent from Live to the Fireface mixer panel where it is combined with additional live instrument inputs and mixes are created for in-ears and FOH. I’m sending FOH a stereo main mix, stereo lead vocals with effects, and mono backing vocals. It’s a somewhat involved setup which requires more than just outputs. We aren’t at the level (yet) where redundancy is a viable option, but it seems to me that the iConnectivity solution wouldn’t really be sufficient on it’s own. I would essentially need to duplicate the MacBook Pro/Live/RME setup and route both of them into an automatic switchover system. Again, this could be simplified if there were a bigger iConnectivity interface with, say 8 instrument/XLR inputs, 10 XLR outputs, and 6 phono outputs.
Wow!!! Absolutely brilliant!!! Very well thought out with actually users in mind and not a quick, cheap, and easy way to make a quick dollar!!! Impressive!!!
Hi sukhjeetchaggar8028, good question! If you are using a Mac, you could easily use a couple of these together using an "aggregate sound device" in your Audio/MIDI set-up. I am not 100% how this would function with the Failover safety feature, but wouldn't imagine it to be too much of a problem. If you would like to dig in more on live playback tools, give me a shout!

@@sweetwater thanks for getting back to me Drake, appreciate it. I saw a video uploaded by iConnectivity, in which they basically connected two PA12 units and did the whole aggregate device setup. Ideally PA1U should also connect the same way so let's see.
The inputs are the two USB ports on the front. This is intended for playback systems. It is not an audio mixer. It receives the audio from the computers and converts to analog outputs. For people who run two systems at the same time for backup, it gives us the ability to switch between the two computers seamlessly.

I played live to a Roland MC-500 sequencer for years. Never a problem, and that was back in the late 80’s and early 90’s.
Where can I find that rack mount in the video?? It looks really neat and tidy
here @strangeelectronic8620
Nice nice .... :) Love to use my PlayAUDIO12 and this is amazing ...
Shouldn't it have two power supplies to actually be redundant? How can you resolve that? Is there a workaround?
Awesome!!!❤❤💯💯
How do you unmute channels?
Can you connect two playaudio1U units to get 24 outputs ?
