  • May 03, 2009  QLab (Mac Only) QLab:: Live Show Control for Mac OS X Free; Advanced licenses available (2 channel playback; MIDI; Video) QLab is a Mac-based cue playback system that can play back audio files, video files, MIDI cues, and many other things. It features the ability to use up to 8 channels of output in the free version, as well as advanced.
  • QLab is sound, video, and lighting control for macOS. It’s used by everyone, big and small.
  • Ableton Live
    Excellent for soundscapes and for interactive performances using a LivePad
  • Trigger
    Audio & video playback for Mac / Windows

Mac Only

Level Change cues can dynamically adjust cue levels; Control Send cues can send MIDI, RS232 or Network messages to other equipment or software; Playlist cues can look after your pre-show and intermission music; and Video cues can play video and image files via a video projector or separate monitor. Please note that SCS is a Windows-only program.

  • Qlab (Free for stereo audio and basic video playback only, licence required for multiple output, audio & video effects or show control playback)
    Multiple cues running simultaneously, fully programmable, very easy to use, has become the industry standard for multimedia.
    Version 4 can be used for lighting control too (with additional hardware)
    TOP TIPS:
    – Use Groups
    – Rather than using fade cues, you can use the automation function with Qlab to fade out
    – Fade cues should really be called ‘Change Cues’ as many parameters can be changed (not just level / volume)
  • Go Button (Free on the App Store)

Free:

  • CuePlayer – Baxel Data
    Limited functionality with free version
  • SpotOn (last updated in 2014, so cannot be recommended for security reasons)
    Can play WAV or MP3 audio files from a ‘cart player’ style screen – not good for cue-based playback during shows
  • Multiplay (in the process of being rewritten and updated – new version due before Autumn 2019)
    Not as powerful as other solutions, but free, and may do everything that you need
