Iris is a powerful, easy to use audio player for any podcast or broadcast studio.

Powerful, instant audio playback on Mac, designed for broadcasters, podcasters, and game streamers.

Iris' clean interface shows you what's playing, and displays both elapsed and remaining play time. Simply click on an item in your playlist to cue it up as the next item. Seamless looping of an audio file is available, too.

Iris was designed with flexibility in mind. Need more than one Iris Audio Player? Simply hit CMD+N for an extra player. Set a different audio device for each player if you need to connect them to individual channels/faders on your mixer.

Zero delay playback is extra useful when you hoop up a MIDI controller, such as the Akai LPD8, to allow remote hot starts. You can customize which button triggers what player.

Finally, you can trigger Iris Audio Player using an Elgato Stream Deck (download required plug-in here), making this combination the most advanced and powerful soundboard for any streamer or gaming creator.
