- Lighting programmers working from rehearsal recordings
- Worth noticing
- It can monitor incoming MTC, LTC, and Art-Net timecode, including signal status and frame rate.
Field notes
The app’s stated workflow keeps the rehearsal recording in the same tool used to prepare and check cues, rather than requiring the recording to move between apps. For console use, the page specifies an external audio interface and Ethernet; it also describes incoming timecode checks and cue triggers that can send MIDI, OSC, and Art-Net.
