The room’s sound, in every pocket in the room.
Adtie Aura takes your audio feeds and puts every one of them on the phones already in the building, as channels each person chooses for themselves. You can reach the same system from anywhere to check it through an encrypted tunnel.
One system in your rack · No receivers to hand out · Nothing for your audience to collect at the door
Four things to listen to. One room to play them in.
A venue can be running four audio feeds at once, and only one of them can come out of the speakers. Everyone who wanted one of the other three is watching on mute. Adtie Aura makes each feed a channel, and every person picks the one they want on their own device.
Four feeds, one soundtrack
Only one of them can win the room, so the people under the other three read subtitles or ask for the volume up. A gym floor, a two-language conference and a service with an overflow room all end up in the same place.
Receivers nobody wants to run
Body-pack and infrared kits mean charging, handing out, sanitising and chasing them back. Most sit in a drawer because the person who lends them out is not always on shift.
A public link is not a private room
Putting the feed on an ordinary public stream means anyone who is sent the link can listen from anywhere, every listener costs you upstream bandwidth, and the whole thing stops the moment your internet line does.
One system, your Wi-Fi, their own phones.
Three parts, and two of them are already in your building. Nothing is re-cabled and nothing about your existing sound changes.
The system
A small server goes in the rack and takes a feed off the audio you already run — the TV boxes behind the screens, the stage output, the AV rack. Each source becomes its own channel.
1U or shelf
Your network
It sends each channel over the Wi-Fi you already have, as a separate stream to each phone that asked for one. For on-site listeners, each stream stays on your local network and does not use your internet connection.
Your secured venue Wi-Fi
Their phone
A guest scans the code on the table and picks a channel. No receiver to hand over, no account to make first, no staff time at all.
Nothing to hand out
Four taps, and nothing to collect at the door.

Two screens. That is the whole app.
Every venue the account can reach
Each one badged with how it can be reached right now — on the venue Wi-Fi, remotely, or both — and how many channels it is running. New venues appear on their own, and whatever is playing stays pinned to a mini-player that follows you across every tab.
A live session, with its numbers showing
The app never hides what it is doing. The path it took, the buffer it is holding and what it has lost are all on the screen the listener is already looking at.
What it does while it is in their hand.
Six things a listener never has to be told about, because the app is already doing them.
Venue browser
Every venue the account can reach, badged with how it can be reached right now.
Favourite channels
Star a channel and it sits one tap from the home screen, kept on the device.
Sticky mini-player
Whatever is playing follows you across every tab, with a stop button that always works.
Scan to pair
Point the phone at the venue’s QR code, or type its short code. No account first.
Plays with the screen off
It survives a phone call, reconnects after a drop, and does not need the screen awake.
Honest diagnostics
Buffer depth, packets received, packets lost, mode and relay — refreshed every second.
Same system. Very different rooms.
Sports bars & pubs
Six screens, six channels. A table picks the match they are actually watching instead of listening to whichever one won the remote — and they stay for the second half rather than finding a pub where they can hear it.
One channel per screenGyms & fitness studios
Coach mic and music bed on separate channels, so members set their own balance, the cardio floor hears the screen it is standing in front of, and the studio next door stays quiet.
Coach + music bedConference & corporate
One channel per booth. Delegates choose their language on their own phone; you stop renting, distributing, sanitising and losing receivers for every event.
Multi-language · floor + boothsHouses of worship
Hard-of-hearing members hear the sermon at full clarity from their own seat. The overflow room and the crèche get the same feed at the same moment.
Speech assist · overflowTheatres & concert halls
Assisted listening without a receiver counter, plus an audio-description channel for the performances that carry one — on the phone already in the pocket.
Assisted listening · audio descriptionMuseums & guided tours
A guide talks normally into a headset and a group of forty hears them clearly, without shouting across a gallery or disturbing the next room.
Guide mic · whisper toursLecture halls & training
The back row hears the lecturer as clearly as the front, close enough to live that a question still lands in the right pause.
One channel per roomAccessibility programmes
Works with compatible headphones, earbuds and hearing aids connected to the listener’s phone.
Bring your own headphones
A separate stream of datagrams to each subscribed phone, with a keepalive and a short subscription lease. Never one broadcast at the room.
One stream each
Each phone receives its own stream; capacity depends on Wi-Fi coverage, hardware and network load.

Your link, sealed
The venue dials out to the relay, so nothing has to open on your firewall.
- Outbound onlyTunnel direction
- ≤ 1 hToken lifetime
The venue dials out; the relay seals its own copy of every packet for the session at the other end. Nothing at the venue accepts an inbound connection.
No receivers to charge, hand out, chase or replace. The audience already owns the hardware, and the app is free.

Run the room from the other side of the world.
The console reaches your system down the same encrypted tunnel the audio uses. Check the channels are up before doors, listen to what each channel is actually sending, and see who is connected in the building — from a hotel, an office, or the back of the room.
Talk to us about remote accessWhat the room already tried, and what it costs.
Every venue has reached for one of these before. The difference is not the idea — it is who gets to choose what they hear, and what the audience has to do to hear it.

What rooms reach for first
What venues try first, and where each one puts the sound.
- Bluetooth pairs one set of earbuds to one source, one person at a time
- A public stream needs your internet line up, and goes down with it
- Receiver hardware has to be handed out, charged, and collected back
- A link anyone can forward is a live microphone anyone can listen to
- Every listener on a public stream costs you upstream bandwidth
- Nothing to hand back means nothing to sanitise between sessions
Fast, sealed, and yours to switch off.
Three things decide this purchase: audio that keeps up with the room, a remote path nobody joins without a token you issued, and a console that shows you exactly who is on it. Everything further down this page is the evidence for one of them.
Local listening stays local
On-site audio travels from the system in your rack to phones on the venue Wi-Fi. This local audio path does not use the internet. When remote listening is enabled, audio travels over the internet through the encrypted relay to authorised listeners.
Sealed, keyed and revocable
The link out of the building is yours, not your audience’s: an encrypted tunnel the venue dials, keyed per session. Access is a signed token bound to account, venue and channel, expiring within the hour.
Everyone listening, in view
The console reports each venue’s health and every listener on it, on-site or remote. Cut one person off, block a device, or switch remote access off for a whole venue — each one action.
What your room would need.
Three answers and you have the shape of the system: how many feeds it takes in, what the hardware has to be, and what your audience scans to get on it. Nothing is priced here — that comes after someone has seen the room.
AdTie Aura Quad-Stream
- Processing unit
- High-Performance Edge Server (Multi-Channel Engine)
- Audio ingest
- 4-Channel Multi-Source Line Audio Interface
- Network requirement
- WPA2/WPA3 Guest SSID on a Listener VLAN, Device Isolation, Aura Server Allowlist
- Deployment kit
- Custom Acrylic Tabletop QR Stands (25 Units) & Window Decals
A starting point, not a quote. Channel counts and access-point coverage are confirmed on the site call before anything is ordered.
Minimum network requirements
- WPA2 or WPA3 encryption. Aura is not deployed on an open, unencrypted network.
- A dedicated listener VLAN: block listener-to-listener traffic and access to business networks.
- Explicitly allow the required Aura server IP addresses and ports from the guest SSID; blanket LAN blocking can prevent playback.
The venue provides and remains responsible for the network. We agree the server IP/port allowlist and verify phone-to-server connectivity before installation. Networks that do not meet these requirements must be updated before deployment.
The questions venues actually ask.
Do our visitors have to install something?
Yes — Adtie Aura is a native app on Android and iOS, because that is what keeps a live audio path open with the screen off. A browser tab cannot hold one the same way. Most venues put a QR code on the seat card or the order of service; the app is free and the venue shows up in it automatically.
Will this survive our Wi-Fi?
It is built for the failure mode that kills most Wi-Fi audio: broadcast traffic. Adtie Aura sends each listening phone its own copy of the stream, which lets the access point retry lost frames. Playback and capacity still depend on access-point coverage, network load and listener devices. We assess your network with you before installation.
What kind of Wi-Fi do we need?
Use a WPA2- or WPA3-protected guest SSID on a dedicated listener VLAN. Block listener-to-listener communication and access to business networks, while explicitly allowing the required Aura server IP addresses and ports. Blanket LAN blocking can prevent playback. We agree the IP/port allowlist and test phone-to-server connectivity during the site assessment. Open, unencrypted or unsegmented networks do not meet our deployment requirements; the venue is responsible for providing a suitable network.
Do we have to open ports on our firewall?
No. The venue system opens an encrypted outbound tunnel to the relay and keeps it up. Nothing at your site accepts an inbound connection from the internet. If you never enable remote listening, local audio stays on the venue network. Remote management and other service connections are separate from that local audio path.
Can we stop someone listening?
Three ways, and all of them are immediate. Block a device and the venue system drops it and refuses its next hello. Disable an account and its sessions die with it. Turn remote off for a whole venue and every token request for it is refused, whatever any app has cached.
Does it work with the audio we already have?
If a source can send a line-level or USB output somewhere, it can send it here — a TV box behind a screen, a stage output, an interpreter booth, a zoned music feed. We take the outputs you already produce and carry each one as its own channel. Nothing about your existing sound changes.
Does this satisfy our accessibility obligations?
It is a strong assistive-listening option and it removes most of the reasons people avoid the ones you already have. Whether it satisfies a specific regulation depends on your country and your building, and often on whether a hearing-aid-compatible option must also exist. We will tell you plainly where Adtie Aura fits and where it does not — bring your access consultant to the site call.
What happens when the internet drops?
Everyone in the building keeps listening. The on-site path never leaves your network, so an outage only affects people listening remotely — and the app moves them back to the local path automatically the moment they walk in the door.
Who owns the audio?
Adtie Aura transports audio transiently in memory for live delivery; it does not record or archive the stream. The venue remains responsible for the content it supplies and for securing all necessary content, public-performance and broadcast licences. Using Adtie Aura does not grant rights to that content.
