On-Q Digital Audio 4+

We purchased some whole house audio speakers through Guardian when building our home, and unfortunately it requires the use of this awful app.

More often than not, this app won’t even function to be able to play music. On the off chance that you can get this to play, it often cuts out mid-song. There are so many bugs in the app, I often just give up. I frequently receive errors about not being able to connect to the distribution module, so we are unable to play music through any of the 4 sets of speakers that we had prewired throughout the house. This was supposed to bring sound and joy into our home, and I simply loathe the thought of attempting to use it at all. Avoid this as a home audio sound solution if possible.

About half of the time, when I open this app to play music from Pandora, it fails to connect (says “Nothing is playing”) until I shut down both the app and the Legrand audio receiver and start them both back up. Sometimes, if I just drag zones into the Source (which should say “Pandora”, but now says “select music”), after a few minutes, Pandora begins to play. Problem solved, right? No, because the app still says “Nothing is playing”, and in that mode, you have no control over which Pandora station you would like to play.

This application works okay, but took me a little while to figure out.
Now that I have I’m mostly happy. To link to your home library connection instead of using one of the media servers, I just use the library function. Takes a while for it discover everything but once you do, you are set. It appears that something between iOS 16 and the latest release broke. So my phone no longer connects but my iPad does. Nice to have home audio without setting up an amplifier etc. That now sits in the closet
