About Crescendo Remote
Crescendo is the control surface your Bang & Olufsen setup was always meant to have — precision-tuned to match the elegance, restraint, and sonic power of your hardware.
Crescendo was born from a clear vision: digital control should embody the same craftsmanship, clarity, and emotional precision as the devices it operates. The result is an interface that integrates seamlessly into the B&O universe—elegant, deliberately designed, and developed with the same care as the speakers themselves.
Rather than focusing on isolated control, Crescendo emphasizes the creation of complete acoustic environments.
Whether it’s a mindful vinyl listening session, a relaxed podcast evening on the couch, or the radio playing while cooking—control happens through scenes tailored for these everyday experiences. Multiroom audio thus becomes more than just a technical feature; it becomes an atmospheric design element.
Key Features of Crescendo
Precision Audio Control
• Intuitively adjust volume and EQ per speaker, giving you detailed control over every sound source.
• Use Scenes to apply changes to multiple speakers simultaneously — ideal for transforming entire audio environments with a single action.
• Create and save custom EQ profiles tailored for different content and situations — such as Podcasts, Night Listening, or various music genres — and switch between them instantly.
Modular Scene System & Automation
• Build Scenes that affect any combination of speakers and properties — including volume, EQ, input/output routing, and power state.
• Apply Scenes partially or selectively: for example, change just the volume on select speakers while leaving other settings untouched.
• Apply changes broadly or with surgical precision — affecting only what you choose, on exactly the speakers you select.
• Automatically trigger multiroom setups with routing and device logic tailored to your context.
Apple Ecosystem Integration
• Trigger Crescendo Scenes using Siri or the Shortcuts app — enabling full voice control and powerful automation.
• Integrate Crescendo into wider Apple automation workflows, e.g., linking audio setups with Focus Modes, NFC tags, or time-based routines.
Trigger HomeKit Scenes from Crescendo
• Link any Crescendo Scene to Apple HomeKit Scenes — allowing your audio setup to automatically activate lighting, blinds, or any other HomeKit accessory.
• Perfect for creating immersive, mood-driven environments with a single tap or automation.
HomeKit Power Integration
• Connect one or multiple HomeKit smart outlets to your speakers to control power directly from Crescendo.
• Include additional outlets for amplifiers or turntables — all toggled together via a Scene or manually in-app.
Themes & Personalization
• Choose from a curated selection of Themes, including bespoke editions crafted to match limited hardware like B&O Atelier models.
• Switch themes automatically via Shortcuts — based on time, sunrise/sunset, or charging status.
• Red Night Mode: a pure black interface with refined red highlights — designed for use in dark spaces without disrupting your rest.
Display & Accessibility Enhancements
• Wall Mode keeps the screen awake for always-on control stations.
• Adjustable font sizes, carefully tuned for both readability and visual refinement.
Cloud Sync Across Devices
• Seamlessly sync all your settings, scenes, and personalizations across iPhone, iPad, and macOS via iCloud.
