Oasis Aura

Yes. Oasis Aura is a simple, plug-and-play Auracast transmitter designed for small to mid-size churches, chapels, classrooms, and community venues. It helps churches quickly add assistive listening without complicated wiring, apps, or large infrastructure changes. For many churches, it can be set up in just a few minutes by connecting it to the existing sound system and allowing listeners to join with compatible Auracast hearing aids or receivers.

Oasis Aura is best suited for small to medium venues, typically up to around 300 ft / 100 m line-of-sight and around 300 attendees. It is a strong fit for churches, meeting rooms, classrooms, senior centers, and small event spaces. For larger churches, outdoor areas, or venues that need longer range and professional XLR inputs, AirCast may be a better choice.

Oasis Aura is designed for quick and easy setup. In most cases, you simply connect the transmitter to your TV, mixer, PA system, or audio source, power it on, and start broadcasting. There is no traditional Bluetooth pairing process for listeners. This makes it especially useful for churches and venues that need a reliable assistive listening system without requiring a dedicated AV technician.

Oasis Aura supports Optical (TOSLINK), 3.5 mm AUX input, and Bluetooth audio input. For church soundboards or PA systems, it can usually connect through AUX, RCA, or XLR outputs using the proper audio adapter. This flexibility makes it easy to add Auracast assistive listening to many existing church audio systems without replacing your current equipment.

Yes. Oasis Aura can broadcast speech from an existing microphone system when the microphone audio is routed through your mixer, soundboard, or PA system. For example, a pastor, speaker, teacher, or presenter can use the venue’s normal microphone setup, and Oasis Aura can transmit that mixed audio to compatible Auracast hearing aids, receivers, earbuds, or headphones.

Yes. As an Auracast transmitter, Oasis Aura supports one-to-many broadcasting, which means multiple listeners can hear the same audio at the same time. This is ideal for assistive listening for church, classrooms, and small venues where several people may need clearer sound. Unlike traditional Bluetooth, Auracast is designed for shared listening instead of one-to-one pairing.

No traditional Bluetooth pairing is required for Auracast listeners. Compatible users can simply select or join the Oasis Aura broadcast using their supported hearing aids, Auracast receivers, compatible headphones, or supported apps. This makes the listening experience easier for guests, visitors, seniors, and church members who may not want to go through a complicated pairing process every time.

Oasis Aura supports compatible Auracast-enabled hearing aids from leading brands as new models become available, including Starkey, Oticon, Jabra, ReSound, Philips, and others. Because Auracast support depends on the specific hearing aid model and firmware, we recommend checking your exact model before purchase. Support for new hearing aids continues to grow as more brands adopt Auracast technology.

Yes, with the help of Avantree Aura C. Oasis Aura itself broadcasts using Auracast, but listeners can use regular Bluetooth headphones or non-Auracast hearing aids by adding the Avantree Aura C receiver adapter. As long as the listening device supports Bluetooth audio streaming, Aura C can receive the Auracast broadcast and stream it to the user’s existing Bluetooth headphones or hearing aids.

Typical Auracast latency is around 50–70 ms, which is similar to standing approximately 17 meters from the original sound source. This level of delay is usually very suitable for speech, sermons, lectures, presentations, and general assistive listening. However, for live music, live entertainment, or instrument monitoring where performers need near-zero delay, Auracast may not be the best solution.

Yes. Oasis Aura supports firmware-based customization through the product support page. Available settings may include changing the broadcast name, enabling or disabling encryption, adjusting broadcast behavior, volume settings, and future feature expansion depending on firmware version. Encryption can be useful in environments where private listening is preferred, while open broadcasting makes joining easier for public venues and assistive listening applications. Firmware updates are designed to be simple and can typically be completed in just a few minutes.

Oasis Aura is a next-generation assistive listening solution built around Auracast technology. It is easier to expand over time, supports compatible new hearing aids directly, and can also work with receivers or adapters for guests who do not yet have Auracast devices. For churches looking for a plug-and-play, future-ready assistive listening system, Oasis Aura provides a practical path without locking the venue into older dedicated receiver-only systems.
