Sound for Remote Desktop is a reliable software solution that enables bidirectional audio connectivity between local workstations and remote desktop sessions.

Under standard circumstances, bidirectional audio streaming in remote desktop environments is problematic or even impossible to implement for applications such as Microsoft Teams, Skype, Zoom, etc. The DirectSound application itself does not support audio input/output functionality in remote desktop environments, therefore microphones cannot be used in remote sessions.

The remote desktop sound feature allows audio streams to be transmitted to remote Windows sessions with low latency and high sampling rate, without any interruptions or interruptions in sound.

working principle

1. The working principle of remote desktop sound

The remote desktop audio solution is very easy to use. This plan consists of two parts: the workstation part and the server part. The workstation section should be installed on the local workstation, while the server section should be installed on the remote server you want to log in to.

After installing these two components, the audio stream will be automatically transmitted every time you log in to the remote desktop. The audio software running remotely can receive input audio, just like a microphone, headphones, or other audio device directly connected to a remote computer. The output audio will be played from the remote session to your local headphones or speakers.

1. Audio stream isolation

In a multi-user environment (Windows Server operating system), if multiple users are logged into the remote end, you can ensure that each audio device is isolated in its independent session, so you don't have to worry about others hearing your incoming or outgoing audio streams. You don't need to search for your microphone or headphones in other users' input/output device lists. This isolation mechanism allows you to fully focus on your audio stream.

1. Supports any audio input or output device

All types of audio devices are supported. It doesn't matter whether the headphones or microphone have a USB port or a 3.5mm jack. No special audio input/output devices are required, and no modifications are needed to existing equipment. Any headphones or microphone can work properly.

1. Remote Desktop Protocol

Sound for Remote Desktop supports multiple remote desktop protocols, including Microsoft RDP, Citrix ICA, Amazon WSP, DCV, Omnissa (VMware) Blast, and Teradici PCoIP. Regardless of the environment used (Remote Desktop Services Microsoft Azure、Windows 365、Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops、Omnissa (VMware) Horizo n. Amazon workspaces, AppStream 2.0, etc. are all compatible. Any compatible client software can be used to access the remote end.

1. All your data is safe and secure.

Sound for Remote Desktop only transfers data directly between the workstation and server program components installed on your computer. It will not connect to FabulaTech or any third-party servers. The only exception is the optional version checking function, so it can work perfectly even without an Internet connection.

The connection between the workstation and the server is established through a virtual channel in the Remote Desktop Protocol. Therefore, the security level of this solution is the same as the security level you set for regular remote desktop connections.

1. Dual hop session support

You can connect to remote server 1 from the workstation. Then initiate a connection from server 1 to another server 2 session. No additional configuration is required to access the device on server 2.

1. What about other operating systems?

If you are looking for a solution for Linux or macOS, then you have found it. The remote desktop sound feature runs perfectly in macOS and most Linux distributions. The list of compatible remote desktop clients is also constantly increasing.
