Headless Server Software

At the Discoverer, Patreon tier and above. You'll gain access to our Headless Server Software.

The Headless Server Software is a version of Resonite that lacks a graphical user interface, allowing it to run efficiently in scenarios where rendering is not needed. It is common to use this software to run events or sessions for larger communities or events.

You can run the software on Windows and Linux.
