PC

For pc only one app is distributed. This app can control all mixers and is only available as a "pro" version. You can use all features of the app in the offline mode for free. As soon as you want to connect to a mixer you must buy the app for that mixer model.

Requirements

  • Operating system: Windows 10 (x64) or later, OSX 10.9 or later, Linux (arm64, x64)
  • Screen: Any screen works
  • Touchscreen: Multitouch is supported on Windows 10/11 - untested on any other OS.

Please make sure the app is working in offline mode before purchasing any licenses!
