Auxfeed for Android
Real-time DAW monitoring on Android with NSD discovery
Download FreeHear your mix from your Android phone
Auxfeed for Android receives real-time audio streams from your DAW plugin. Streams appear on your local Wi-Fi automatically — no IP addresses, no pairing setup. Open the app, tap a stream, and you're monitoring with live LUFS metering.
Free on Google Play. No account required for local streaming.
Auto-Discovery via NSD
The Auxfeed plugin advertises each stream on your local network. The Android app uses Network Service Discovery (NSD) to find active streams automatically. When you start a session, open the app — your stream is already listed. No IP addresses, no manual configuration.
Multiple plugin instances (one per track, bus, or master) appear as separate streams. Tap to switch between them.
Metering
Real-time level and loudness metering at 60fps.
| Meter | Tier | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Per-channel peak meters | Free | Color-coded: green (safe), yellow (caution), red (clip). 2-second peak hold. |
| Momentary LUFS | Free | 400ms window per EBU R128. |
| Short-term LUFS | Free | 3-second sliding window. |
| Integrated LUFS | Pro | Full program loudness. Tap to reset. |
| True Peak dBTP | Pro | Inter-sample peaks. Tap to reset max hold. |
| Loudness Range (LRA) | Pro | Dynamic range per EBU R128. |
Supported Codecs
- PCM Lossless — bit-perfect audio at any sample rate (44.1, 48, 88.2, 96 kHz)
- Opus — royalty-free, 64–320 kbps, excellent quality at low bandwidth
Note: AAC is not available on Android. AAC requires Apple's AudioToolbox, which is iOS-only. If the plugin is set to AAC and an Android device connects, the app will display an error. Use PCM or Opus when connecting from Android.
Dim and Mute
Dim drops the receiver level by 20 dB. Mute silences the output entirely. Both are receiver-side only — your DAW output is never touched.
Multiple Listeners
Any number of phones and tablets can connect to the same stream simultaneously. No per-listener charges.
Pro Features
Auxfeed Pro adds advanced metering, monitoring modes, and remote access. Available via in-app subscription on Google Play ($9.99/mo or $79/yr — 7-day free trial on annual).
