VBAN Receptor 1.0.0.5, published by V.Burel, is a lightweight Windows utility designed to receive and play back VBAN audio streams across a local network. Positioned within the streaming-audio category, the program acts as the endpoint counterpart to any VBAN emitter, allowing engineers, podcasters, gamers, and broadcasters to monitor low-latency, uncompressed audio sent from another PC, a mixing console running VBAN, or mobile devices using the VBAN protocol. Typical use cases include adding a remote headphone feed in a home studio, piping DAW output to a second computer for quality checks, distributing in-game chat to a recording rig, or expanding a radio automation chain with cost-effective IP audio. The interface is intentionally minimal: on launch the user selects the incoming IP address, port, and desired stream name, after which the incoming PCM signal is immediately routed to the default Windows playback device; no additional drivers or complex configuration panels are required. Because VBAN transmits 16- or 24-bit audio at sample rates up to 384 kHz with less than 20 ms latency, the receptor preserves the fidelity and timing needed for professional monitoring, while its negligible CPU footprint leaves system resources free for simultaneous recording or streaming tasks. Version 1.0.0.5 represents the first and only public Windows build, distributed as donationware: users may download and operate the binary without charge, with voluntary contributions encouraged to support continued maintenance. The software is available free of charge on get.nero.com, where downloads are delivered through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always providing the latest build and supporting batch installation alongside multiple applications.
