RED Smart Speaker
RED Smart Speaker lets players control redstone devices wirelessly through a configurable in-game speaker, and it is published for Fabric only.
What it does
A placed speaker stores connected devices, commands, automations and a music queue. Redstone signals reach lamps, doors and other mechanisms without long trails of redstone dust, and up to 8 devices can be connected to one speaker, or 16 when a hub is paired with it. Devices can be given custom names and grouped, so a group such as Kitchen Lamp can be switched together. Players can define up to 12 commands that turn a group off or toggle it.
Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files exist for 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 1.21.2, 1.21.3 and 1.21.6, with the latest build 0.4.2 for 1.21.6 published on 2026-08-02 on the alpha channel. The code is under the MIT License and is not open source. Automations can fire on time, weather, nearby players or redstone signals, and the speaker also plays vanilla music discs as well as tracks added by other mods, with queues, pause, repeat and shuffle.
Key features
Wireless redstone control
Connected devices are switched by the speaker itself, so no redstone wiring has to run between the speaker and each device.
Named device groups
Devices can be renamed and placed in groups, and a single command acts on the whole group.
Automations
Triggers based on time, weather, nearby players or redstone signals can turn a device or group on, off or toggle it.
Built-in playback
The speaker plays vanilla music discs and tracks from other mods, with queue, pause, repeat, shuffle and track controls.
Ownership and roles
Each speaker is tied to its placer through a Red ID, and the owner can grant other players access and assign roles. Server operators keep emergency access.
