MultiRoom setup

Is there a quick way to create different groups of the same speakers? For example, I have two speakers in my kitchen and two in my living room. I’d like to create three groups: “kitchen”, “living room” and “whole house”. I can’t work out how to do this.

  Hi, I think you have already figured out what I am going to say, but I'll share it just in case.

  I do not think what you ask is possible.

  The closest thing you can do is to create a "kitchen" group and a "living room" group, assigning the relevant speakers to each group.

  Then when you want to use a "whole house" configuration you will have to do it manually. I think that the app will allow one speaker to belong to only one group at the same time -

  Thanks. I feared as much. @AudioPro Support - is this a feature that you could add?

  Hi Charlie, 
  
  

  It is currently not possible.
  We are actively looking into this at the moment. 
  It will take awhile before a feature like this is ready (if possible) and it will unfortunately only work for our newer products. The newer products are all the MkII and II products.

  Hi Melvin - would that include the original Drumfire?

  I really cannot say yes or no. 
  It is still on the drawing board.
  I would not think that the old wifi module that is in the original Drumfire could handle this type of connection. 

  That is just what my knowledge says, nothing above should be taken as a fact.

  If you're tech savvy you can look into home assistant with the Linkplay (the tech Audio Pro uses) integration. This would allow you to create buttons that instantly creates the group you want.

  The Audio Pro app lacks many features that the devices do support - it's kinda frustrating. You can't even enable the multiroom mode that allows you to run multiroom over the network instead of over wifi (and thus get rid of all the connection drops in multiroom mode).

  I’m sorry but I find it highly ridiculous that this is not possible. It’s a very basic feature.
