MIXaiR
MIXaiR is Salsa Sound's AI-driven automatic audio mixing product for live sports. It processes standard microphone feeds without added tracking or manual operation, managing pitch, crowd, commentary, and AUX-in audio. It can produce multiple mix variants at once, with stereo, 5.1, NGA, and B-format outputs. It supports MPEG-H authoring at levels 3–7 and Dolby authoring, encoding, and decoding. Each mix can receive dynamic loudness processing toward a configurable target standard, and optional sample triggering can enhance sounds that are difficult to hear.
MIXaiR can run on a cloud platform, in a broadcast truck, or in a studio for remote production. The broadcaster solution lists AES-67, MADI, ASIO, SDI, SRT, and NDI connectivity. VST and AU plugins can be used on inputs, sub-mixes, and outgroups; those signals can be monitored and multitrack recorded. Salsa Sound says that after setup, the product produces mixes without manual or external intervention. It runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows. Pricing is on request, and prospective customers can book a trial through a contact form. Salsa Sound was formed in 2017 by Rob Oldfield and Ben Shirley.
