Example setups

Complete rigs with ShowTimeCoda in them: what to connect, what to set, and what to check before the show.

These are example configurations, not customer stories. The steps on other products' side are kept general; follow their manuals for the exact menus. Rehearse with your own gear before a show.

• Laser show run from ShowTimeCoda
  ShowTimeCoda plays the music and video and drives a BEYOND laser timeline by Art-Net timecode, with the video in Capture over NDI.
• BEYOND drives the video and audio
  The laser timeline is the master; ShowTimeCoda chases it and plays the matching video and audio.
• Lighting console by LTC
  ShowTimeCoda sends LTC from a sound card to a lighting console's timecode input, one hour per song.
• Timecode converter with backup
  LTC from QLab or a sound desk in, Art-Net and MIDI Time Code out, with a backup source and freewheel. No media needed.
• BEYOND leads, lighting and pyro by LTC
  BEYOND's Art-Net timecode in; LTC out to a grandMA2 and a FireOne pyro system that take LTC only.
• Resolume visuals follow ShowTimeCoda
  LTC over a virtual audio cable into Resolume's SMPTE input, so its clips play in step with ShowTimeCoda's sound.
• Event playback with a Stream Deck
  Walk-in music, videos and stings from a cue list and sound pads, fired from a Stream Deck through Bitfocus Companion over OSC.
• DJ night: rekordbox cues drive lasers and visuals
  The DJ's tracks as silent cues with rekordbox's tempo and drops as sub-cues; the operator presses GO and BEYOND follows by Art-Net timecode and BPM.
