Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, a decentralized mixer includes an audio input circuit to receive one or more local audio input signals, a network adapter to couple to a network and to receive one or more mix busses from one or more other mixers coupled to the network, a digital signal processor to create a local mix of the local audio input signals in combination with the mix busses from the network, and a recording circuit to record the local mix, and/or to record the raw signals from the mix busses and the local audio input signals.

Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, a first mixer connects to a network and if a second mixer is detected on the network, the first mixer obtains an identifier for the second mixer, adds one or more audio signals from the second mixer to a mix of the first mixer, and stores a mix setting for the second mixer on the first mixer. If the second mixer is subsequently connected to the first mixer, the first mixer obtains the identifier for the second mixer, recalls the stored mix setting for the second mixer based at least in part on the identifier, and adds one or more audio signals from the second mixer to a present mix of the first mixer based at least in part on the recalled mix setting.
