I have a client who has a studiolive series II 32 channel mixer

They want 10 channels of monitoring on stage with local control for each musician.

Solution1 would be to use iPhone + QMix-UC for control, multicore to stage, 10- channels of headphone amp on stage.  Economical, but a bit inelegant.

Solution 2 would be wireless IEMs, but for 10 channels, they don't have the budget.

Solution 3 would be to use a product like the Allen & Heath ME-1.  Really this would be the preferred solution.  But the ME-1 doesn't speak AVB.  I can't find a similar product that does AVB.  There are various interface options available for the hub that goes with he ME-1, but none of them AVB, so would need an additional box to interface.  Not ideal, and expensive.

Does anyone have any other ideas, or improvements on option 3?

Thanks
