Software for live events

What we can help with.

Custom tools, connected systems and software we build ourselves. For the people behind the show.

Custom software

The missing piece in your workflow, built around the people who will use it. From a focused utility to a web or desktop application.

Production tools, bespoke applications, workflow automation

Start a custom software project

Systems that talk

Connect the software and equipment you already use. We build protocol bridges and integrations that fit your event system.

OSC, MIDI, DMX, Art-Net, sACN, timecode

Connect your systems

Tools for your console

Small tools can change a whole working day. Our grandMA3 plugins take care of sequence management, layout automation and repetitive console work.

Preparation in the studio

Prototype against real equipment, test integrations and work through pre-programming before the venue. Prepare the software and hand it over to your team.

A few things we believe in.

Keep people on the craft.

We point AI at the slow, repetitive work, and leave the craft and the judgment calls to people.

  • AI as an assistant
  • We reject AI replacing people
  • AI helps to achieve the unthinkable

The tech should disappear.

We build tools to help people shape emotions and bring creative ideas to life. A lighting designer should be able to focus on what the audience feels, with software that makes the work easier to learn and explore.

A gentler learning curve gives more people the confidence to experiment. Faster feedback makes it easier to try different looks, test a concept and iterate while the idea is still fresh. The software should support that process and let the creative work lead.

We built what we needed.

Some tools start with a missing piece in our own workflow. The ones we keep coming back to become products.

Software meets real equipment.

Our 200m² black-box studio is part of how we build. It gives us a real rig to develop against, a space to test connections and room to work through pre-programming.

We agree what your project needs: software, integrations, preparation and a handover your team can work with.

Inside the studio

  1. Understand the workflow

    Start with the task, the people using the software and the systems it needs to connect.

  2. Choose the right tools

    Web, desktop or native. The platform follows the job, the equipment and the response time.

  3. Build and test together

    Work through prototypes and check the connections against real equipment in the studio.

  4. Prepare the handover

    Agree what needs to be ready, support preparation and put your team in control.
