KLANG:app vs RØDE UNIFY

KLANG:app is the control interface for KLANG processors, bringing setup, mixing and signal placement into one app. Each musician can adjust an individual sound mix. Users can position instruments around the listening space, including above or below the listener’s head, or use conventional stereo. Mixing tools include faders, panning, system settings and graphical 3D and i3D orbits. The app connects to processors over Wi-Fi or LAN and can manage one mix per device or all mixes from a single app. An offline editor and demo mode are included. Console integrations cover DiGiCo SD and Quantum, including mix-parameter control and snapshot recall, and SSL Live, with two-way control of faders, panning, mute, solo and tone filters. It also communicates using Open Sound Control and supports MIDI MCU and MIDI for Allen & Heath consoles. KLANG:app is free for supported devices, with no free trial, and runs on Android, iOS, macOS and Windows.

RØDE UNIFY is free virtual mixing software for streamers and content creators on Windows and macOS. It routes, mixes, processes, and records audio, combining up to four microphones with six virtual audio devices such as Spotify, Discord, and gameplay. Independent sub-mixes support different outputs, and UNIFY can send audio directly to OBS. It records each track as a separate file for multichannel post-production. Processing options include a compressor, noise gate, high-pass filters, equalization, and APHEX Aural Exciter and Big Bottom processing. Advanced DSP processing is available only with RØDE USB-C microphones. With compatible RØDE microphones, processing can run on a microphone DSP chip to reduce CPU load and provide zero-latency headphone monitoring. The app requires Windows 10 or later or macOS 12 Monterey or later. RØDE lists compatibility with products including NT-USB Mini, NT-USB+, NT1 5th Gen, VideoMic NTG, Wireless PRO, PodMic USB, and XCM-50. Its support section covers setup, routing, sub-mixes, recording, troubleshooting, and contact options.
