Highlights

One click to hear your mix like everyone else does.

AirCheck routes your master to AirPods instantly — without touching a single preference. Then it keeps you in the plugin with metering and phone streaming.

Instant AirPods routing

Parallel routing sends your master to AirPods while your interface stays untouched. No Core Audio reset.

Mobile streaming

Scan a QR code and your mix plays on any phone — no app, up to 8 devices at once over Wi-Fi.

Built-in metering

Peak, phase correlation and LUFS right in the plugin — no need to open another meter.

Why AirPods

If it doesn't translate to AirPods, you're missing the picture.

AirPods have become the world's most popular headphones. If your mix doesn't hold up to how most people actually listen, you're mixing half-blind.

The old way

The process punishes you for caring.

There's a reason you don't check on AirPods more often — the workflow gets in your way.

Export to MP3

Export, transfer, listen — by the time you hear it on AirPods, you've lost the context.

Can't tweak in real-time. Your creative flow is dead.

Switch audio driver

One wrong click and Logic reloads every plugin. You just lost 3 minutes. Again.

Risks crashes and Core Audio resets. Switching back and forth kills your session.

AirCheck fixes this in one click.

How it works

Load. Pair. Listen.

Place AirCheck on your Master channel. We handle the routing directly to your AirPods. No bouncing files. No switching drivers. Just music.

Mobile streaming
On the phone

What the phone shows.

A web player opens right in their browser — listen in real time, and drop timestamped notes that sync back to your desktop.

Metering

Because you're already looking at the plugin.

Peak levels, phase correlation and LUFS — right where you need them. No need to open another plugin just to check your numbers.

Reference tracks

A/B against the pros, fairly.

Load up to 8 reference tracks and compare against your mix — with automatic LUFS gain-matching so loudness never fools you.

  • WAV · MP3 · AIFF · FLAC · M4A/AAC
  • Persistent library, reusable across projects
  • Reference stays out of your mix output

FAQ

Good to know.

What's the latency?
Bluetooth latency is approximately ~100ms (typically 80–150ms depending on device and codec). Mobile Streaming over Wi-Fi achieves ~100ms (as low as ~60ms with 5GHz Wi-Fi). It's built for monitoring and reference checking, not real-time tracking.
Will it interfere with my DAW's audio?
No. AirCheck routes audio to your selected device independently without changing your DAW's audio device settings. Your interface stays connected and your session remains untouched.
Does it work with other Bluetooth headphones?
AirCheck has built-in detection for 60+ Bluetooth brands including Sony, Bose, JBL, Sennheiser and more. Professional audio interfaces are excluded by design to prevent routing conflicts. Since v1.1.1, you can also manually select any output device from Settings — even if your headphones aren’t in the built-in brand list.
Will AirCheck affect my bounce/export?
No. AirCheck automatically bypasses during offline rendering, so your exported audio is completely normal and unaffected.
Is AirCheck free?
AirCheck includes a demo mode with full features and a brief 1-second interruption every 30 seconds. Purchase the full version for $24.99 to remove it.
