Axia Livewire Remote Control
Livewire is an Audio-over-IP technology developed by The Telos Alliance, and built into many broadcast products today, including the Axia broadcast mixing consoles.
The Axia IP Audio Driver is used to connect a PC to the Livewire network to send or receive audio. It provides a virtual soundcard (with up to 24 stereo channels, depending on the version/license) that can be used from any Windows application just like a physical sound card.
But the Livewire network does not only carry audio, but also control signals (GPIO). For that purpose, the IP Audio Driver as a built-in telnet-like interface - the AXIA GPIO TCP/IP Direct Interface - that can be used to set GPIOs, or receive GPIO changes, over a TCP connection.
The Axia IP Audio Driver is available in different versions with different numbers of available channels, the two largest versions (8×8 and 24×24) only available for purchase through a Livewire+ software partner.
