THE EDITOR

Place light the way you place sound.

Import one song or a complete concert recording. Every drum gets its own lane, every effect remains visible and every generated result stays editable.
01

Automatic starting point

Generate a complete, editable show from imported audio or inside a selected loop.

02

One track per drum

See the relationship between music, drum hits and every lighting effect at the same time.

03

Pixel-level movement

Build scanners, sweeps, pulses, strobes, impacts and movement across the complete kit.

04

Effect automation

Shape colour, brightness and speed, then layer effects with predictable priorities.

05

Virtual Preview

Design and audition the show before connecting the physical lights.

06

Live synchronisation

Use beat grids, absolute time, audio playback or LTC timecode depending on the show.
