04 · Cartwall SFX → network audio device

Fire cartwall SFX from the Bits page to a network audio device — AES67, ST2110, Sonos, garden speaker, console/Q-SYS, and more — even from a headless or Pi-class box. This is a solid place to pause the tour.

Capture

Cartwall — Operator Mode · Bits 4×4 — fire from Action Deck or Stream Deck into your chosen network audio device

Before you start

• Step 03 works: House / Bits open, and at least one Bits tile fires your uploaded audio file — or you continued when fire said no local audio device.
• Fresh Community 1.0.190 has no preloaded stings — bring-your-own via Control → Audio → Library → Upload in 03 before Play an audio file. Optional CDN samples: sample-sting-a.wav / sample-sting-b.wav.
• Production story is a network audio device (AES67 / ST2110 / Sonos / garden speaker / console·Q-SYS as available), not a local sound-card ritual. Local Pulse is demo-box validation only.
• Reference: I/O, System.

Steps

1. On a headless or Pi-class box (or the same host if you are validating sinks), open I/O / System and confirm network audio devices are listed (/api/v1/audio/sinks — AES67 / ST2110 / Sonos / garden speaker / console·Q-SYS as available).
2. Choose your network audio device. Note it on Overview’s I/O strip when online.
3. Route the Bits cartwall (and House if you want walk-in beds) into that chosen network sink — same show graph as the browser UI.
4. From Action Deck (or Stream Deck), open Bits and fire the tile that plays the file you uploaded in 03.
5. Verify the take reaches your network audio device over the network path — not only Local Pulse on the demo box.
6. Optional: fire a House cue the same way so walk-in / applause share the sink story.

Drop a Pi on the network, fire House / Bits into a network audio device — same show graph as the browser UI.
