The pricing above is for Switchboard only. It does not include the cost of third party extensions.

Typically you would contract directly with the third party extension provider.

Nevertheless we have partnerships with certain providers so we encourage you to get in touch to discuss your use case and the extensions you’d like to use, as we may be able to help.

Yes we can provide this help through the Support Packages mentioned above.

Yes we provide a variety of consulting services through our parent company, Synervoz.

• Some parts of the SDK are Open Source and we will be open sourcing more parts of the SDK as well as stand alone products and example apps that provide all the interaction surface needed to mitigate dependency risk.

• It's increasingly unlikely that issues will arise in parts of the codebase that you won't have access to.

• We offer world class support and consulting services. We are able to manage urgent requests via a shared Slack channel.

• For components that are not open-source, partial source code licenses, escrow, and other options are possible but only for sizable enterprise deals.

• Some parts of the SDK are Open Source and we will be open sourcing more parts of the SDK as well as stand alone products and example apps that provide all the interaction surface needed to mitigate dependency risk.

• We also provide Example apps that are Open Source.

• We plan to continue our FOSS contributions and welcome partners to get in touch.

• For the closed-source aspects of Switchboard, we may offer partial source code licenses based on your needs. This option is generally cheaper, faster, and more robust than developing it yourself. Pricing typically ranges from $XX,000 to $XXX,000, depending on the modules required.

• Sometimes we get asked what Switchboard actually is, since much of the final functionality is often provided by third party extensions. In short, makes it much faster to use these extensions and without diving into C++.

• Think of it as a real time orchestration layer that makes it easy to assemble C++ building blocks into complete audio graphs without actually having to touch C++ yourself.

• While we built some of our own DSP modules from scratch, many of the nodes are wrappers around open source and third party libraries. The real work is in the C++ audio engine that makes all these pieces work together, and how it's integrated with higher level languages and operating systems so that the graphs will run anywhere.

• Switchboard abstracts all the low level requirements (e.g. real-time threading without glitches, CPU/GPU optimizations, sample rate conversion, circular buffer management, platform specific audio APIs like CoreAudio, AAudio, etc.).

• Hence, you benefit from a platform that makes it much faster to put the pieces together, whether you're aiming for rapid experimentation (with a huge variety of nodes to test, compare, and assemble into unique configurations), or a production ready audio graph will run on any platform without glitches while minimizing latency, CPU, and memory footprint.

• See How it works to learn more.

We can provide this option if needed, but it is available only at the enterprise tier and will incur additional costs.

Otherwise, we offer support on a best-effort basis, and typically recommend a monthly support package to address this concern.
