How does Audio Architect differ from System Architect and London Architect?

The interface is a derivation of HiQnet System Architect, although with an optimized underlying codebase to improve performance for larger systems, with Soundweb London included in a 'Soundweb London world' to retain as much familiarity with London Architect as possible.

There have been some enhancements made over the London Architect interface:

• A new matrix control with significant operational enhancements
• A more intuitive mechanism of configuring GPIO ports
• An improved Soundweb London preset configuration interface

I'm an existing London Architect user – what features are included in Audio Architect?

The majority of the London Architect / Soundweb London feature set are included, but the following will be added soon:

• Macros

Existing London Architect files may not be imported into Audio Architect at this time.

I'm an existing System Architect user – what's different?

• Easier networking
• Devices don't auto-populate but devices discovered on the network may be added with more control
• The Match Devices mechanism of dragging and dropping devices on the network to devices in the Venue design has been inherited from HiQnet Performance Manager
• A new Synchronize Venue mechanism enables connecting  to the network with far more flexibility
• Improved workflow

If any of the above features are required for a system, we suggest continuing to use London Architect in the meantime, while they are added to Audio Architect.

Note that due to the Audio Architect enhancements, System Architect and Audio Architect should not be run alongside each other.

Due to the underlying changes in the software, at this time existing System Architect files cannot be opened in Audio Architect.  Device files and Custom Panel files can be imported however.
