01 / Core
Virtual audio device
A standard CoreAudio HAL endpoint for every DAW, editor, browser, and communications app. Lock-free shared memory keeps transport deterministic.
- 2–64 channels
- 44.1–192 kHz
- 16 / 24 / 32 bit
Bridge / System architecture
Built for the path
you never hear.
A closer look at how Bridge moves clocked, discoverable, multichannel audio between macOS and professional IP networks.
← Back to Bridge02 / Timing
PTP clock discipline
IEEE 1588-2008 slave and master modes continuously track offset, delay, and sync quality against the network grandmaster.
- Sub-microsecond sync
- 125 ms interval
- Configurable domain
03 / Transport
AES67 RTP streaming
Multichannel send and receive with configurable packet timing and jitter depth, built around the open AES67 profile.
- 1 ms packet time
- Multicast transport
- Loss tracking
04 / Discovery
SAP and NMOS
Automatic stream visibility through SAP, with broadcast control integration through NMOS IS-04 and IS-05.
- RFC 2974
- IS-04 v1.3
- IS-05 v1.1
05 / Capture
Multitrack recording
Record network inputs directly to PCM WAV as a combined file, per stream, or isolated per channel.
- PCM WAV
- Three record modes
- API control
06 / Control
Native observability
A macOS controller and local web API expose clock, stream, meters, routing, logs, and recording state.
- Live meters
- Routing matrix
- REST status API
