Switching audio
Switching audio source isn’t easy and reliable. Although Windows, Linux and macOS either offer built-in or 3rd party software solutions, neither of them provides a hardware-based audio source switch. Changing the audio source through OS settings or relying on an advanced heuristic to change the audio source may distract you from your goals – achieving the best audio experience, helping teammates or building an audience. OS switching may require you to press the buttons, set up hotkeys, minimize your window, exit your streaming software or even close the video game.

Automate your tasks
This gets more annoying when you are already focused on your tasks and you are distracted by the equipment and accessories around you. Automation may help you to save this time and effortlessly become a power user with an organized desk.
If you are someone who:
- Streams on YouTube and Twitch,
- Plays online games,
- Edits audio/video,
- Records podcasts and social media videos,
- Listens to streaming audio,
- Joins a lot of video calls using Zoom, Skype, Teams and Webex,
- Communicates quickly in-game using Discord and TeamSpeak,
- Enjoys anything audio related
then you need quick access to audio from multiple devices and keep uncluttered desk space. AudioSwitch headphone stand can help with all of these challenges and much more.

Imagine receiving the call for a meeting, plugging the headphones (if they are not already plugged), trying to pick up the call and later hanging up the call. This can be easily automated, like old good cordless phones, by just grabbing your headset from the AudioSwitch headphone stand. This will trigger automatic call pick-up. Similarly, just put the headset back on the stand to end the call.

Here’s how:
- Connect the AudioSwitch headphone stand to USB-C (or USB-A) port on your primary device or connect it to Bluetooth
- Install our software to unlock all features, including picking up and ending calls. Or if your workplace forbids installing any software, AudioSwitch will work in pure hardware mode (only switching audio sources).
- Plug your wired headphones into the AudioSwitch, or pair it with the wireless headset.
- Enjoy a clutter-free desk and automatic audio source selection.
When all of your devices are connected, simply test it by picking up and putting the headset on the AudioSwitch headphone stand. Set up once, and the AudioSwitch remembers the devices you have connected to automatically, so there is no need to reconfigure it in the future.
The AudioSwitch headphone stand works with Bluetooth wireless, USB- and 3.5 mini jack wired connections. The compatibility can be further increased by using adapters.
