Hi to all!

I believe that live performance during storytelling sessions is one of the sectors that Echotopia will shine.

There are also many considerations, now with the pandemic, for streaming media. Which services do you use to stream to your friends?

I love that too, I imagine the players exploring a derilect ship finding more and more evidence of some horrifically violent event then suddenly they hear the horn as a one shot from an unexplored portion of said ship.

I currently use it as one shot sounds, but would use it as a drone too in my horror campaigns to instill a sense of urgency. This is a classic, I think Antonis will have a blast recreating this one!

I will uninstall one of my pods and move it to another room and see if I can pair up to just it I've never tested that workflow. Unfortunately, you're the first to register in our new forums, so there are no other people with so many Apple devices here to test things together. On the good side, you...

Interesting question...

I don't have any extra devices to test this

From the top of my head, I have a question about this, How does iOS handle multiple devices on AirPlay?

I mean, do they offer a menu to select and/or mix the receivers?
