Abstract: In an embodiment, a wireless mix monitor system is provided in which the musicians have one or more wearable electronic devices that may receive digital audio over a wireless connection to a computer. The channels monitored by a given user may be mixed on the computer, on the devices, or on a combination of the computer and the devices. The musicians may be freed from a fixed mix monitor, allowing easy movement about the stage or performance space. Audio buffering and upsampling/downsampling may be used to manage temporal discontinuities in the audio stream.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a monitor mixing system is provided in which a stage plot of the positions of the musicians and their instructions may be supplied. Based on the relative locations of a given musician who is monitoring the mix and the other musicians/instruments, the monitor mixing system may generate a mix that incorporates modifications to make the sound appear to be three dimensional. That is, the source of the sound may be experienced by the musician as if the sound is being heard from the location of the musician/instrument.
