Smart IP Manager - System Operating Manual
page 16 of 48
The Smart IP loudspeaker can receive two independent input streams. The output audio is a 1:1
mix of the two streams. This can support use cases where different streams are set up for different
applications, for example one stream for the background music and one stream for live audio or
announcements. Then, the user can control which stream is playing at the audio source side.
The
sample rate and audio format for the two streams must be the same.
It is also possible to mix Dante format and AES67 format audio streams with this method.
An AES67 audio stream supported by the loudspeaker can have contain the maximum of 8 audio
channels. Dante automatically divides a multichannel stream into several low channel count flows
suitable for the speaker and this process is automatic.
The AES67 compatibility mode must turned ON to enable reception of AES67 streams. Follow
these instructions on Dante Controller:
Double click on the loudspeaker to be configured. The
Device View

The audio reproduction can also be controlled from the loudspeaker settings, e.g., it’s possible to
switch between analog and audio over IP inputs, please check Input tab chapter about the input
settings.
