Our story and the story of streamioONE + the streamioFIT

We are livestreamers since 2017, based in Leipzig/Germany and we have to setup our equipment on location very quickly – we used Laptops, FlyPacks and rackmount of any sort but there was always either a lot of cabeling to do or we had oversized Rack Towers to pull out of the car and up to the venues FOH – For long we have been searching for the „perfect case“ and we did not find it. So we asked our friend and engineer Andrè Böhme to consult us in constructing our own mobile flypack. We also asked our friend Livian to reduce the computers size to 3RU – he did what some big companies we asked before couldt not accomplish. And we wanted at least two monitors (maybe more to attach), a powerful yet silently running computer, good network capabilities and physical inputs for at least 4 HDMI inputs and 4 SDI inputs/outputs. There should be enough space inside the streamioONE to accomodate a router, a PoE Switch and a DANTE Audio device. There should be enough holes to mount connectors, such as XLR, Ethernet or PowerCon. We wanted it as small as possible because we love to transport it by cargo bike – but this another story to tell. We first went to wooden casings (too bulky), then just steel (too heavy) and ended up with aluminum, which is not exactly enviromental friendly but lightweighted and sturdy. We tried to find a format with as less single parts to be lasercutted as possible and it should look nice because we are often sitting within the audience in the same room. The monitors needed to be positoned in a wide range to accomodate sitting and standing working positions for a long time. At the end (february 2023) streamioONE and streamioTWO (spoiler) were born. And here they are: easing up the work of livestreamers, audio guys and maybe gamers. Or all people in need for a quick setup of a powerful computer with a lot of screen space.
Our friends from the audio department asked us to modify the streamioONE into a streamioFIT because they loved to have a quick, reliable and stylish mixing rack combined with a hardware controller for their motorized faders – they love faders – we too. So we did and here it is: the streamioFIT
