Air Access 18

[gadeuvall2000]

Welcome to the Air Access 18 forums.  You you will find information as well as the official download for the Air Access 18 project.

The concept of this project is to make the functionality of the X-Air X-18 and XR-18 accessible through the means of a more screen reader friendly user interface.  For more information on how AOSC  works, please see  AOSC post.

Currently this project works under Windows with NVDA or Narrator, and under Linux Wine.  It may work under Wine for Apple, but has not been tested, and there are no current plans for Apple development.


The zip package contains a group of files that were designed to work with AOSC. 

Please read the EULA.txt and ReadMe.txt files contained within the zip package before using. 

Here's a playlist of videos to help you get acquainted with Air Access 18:

Hi. Do you already know if Air Access 18 works well with Midas mr18? At the moment it is only slightly more expensive than the Behringer xr18, but the difference is that it has a 10-year limited warranty as opposed to the Behringer which has a 3-year limited warranty.

From all existing information, these units are identical except different pre-amps. So the solution should be compatible. But I can't give any warrantee for that, till someone with MR18 confirm that really works.

[Tomecki]

So it looks like I'll be confirming it. ☺️Unfortunately, I haven't had access to any digital mixer so far, so I may have a few questions, although I tried to review a lot of materials, including the original user manual. Do you have a checklist of things I could check to make sure everything is working properly?

[azslow3]

I don't think you will need everything. Use what you need and in case something does not responds right, let us know and we try to fix.
