Getting help with QLab is easy if you know who to ask! (Us. It's us. The answer is to ask us.) #QLab #QLabTips #techtheatre #backstage

Join us at the QLab class this week! (If you can't join in person, join us on the livestream!) qlab.app/qclass/

QLab is used for a lot of cool projects, but running the hidden Rebel Hideout room deep within the headquarters of Industrial Light and Magic has got to be high on the list of cool projects www.ilm.com/rebel-hideou...

Is the QClass worth it? "The value you deliver for that price point is unmatched in the industry. It was fun, engaging, enlightening and collaborative. I’ve been through many manufacturer-led trainings in my career, and none of them came close to what you guys put on last week." voxel.org/classes

What's new in QLab 5.5? Object audio in QLab makes spatial audio easy. #QLab

[QLab 5.5 Experiments] Syncing Object Audio and Video Position youtu.be/3nHZPc9lQ4Y
This is an experiment with QLab 5.5’s Object Audio feature, syncing it with video position. Headphones make it clearer… well, somewhat. 🎧 #qlab #qlab5 #objectaudio

youtu.be/I9YYo0Jn1NU I think one of QLab’s greatest strengths is the ability to switch performance-specific conditions such as branching storylines or double/triple-casting all at once within a single cue list, with just a single action. #qlab #qlab5

Today's #QLab tip: How does QLab handle audio sample rates?

Question: Do you need access to the internet for QLab to work? Answer: No — but remember to check for bug fix updates if you encounter problems while offline.

Come to the QClass at @voxel.org from September 3 – 5, where we'll include lessons on the new Object Audio features in QLab 5.5 voxel.org/classes

spent the day in the QLab.tv studio recording video tutorials for QLab 5.5 (no we don't have a release date yet, but we're getting closer and it'll be as soon as we can)

Just in case you didn't know: QLab can renumber your cues for you! (Not everyone knows!) #QLab #QLabTips

Here's a friendly little reminder that every piece of technical advice we've ever seen ChatGPT give about QLab has been wrong. Save yourself time and frustration — ask us instead! 😄 📧: [email protected]

Check out this super fast way to select just one type of cue. Especially handy for batch editing! #QLab #QLabTips

People ask: will you port QLab to Windows or Linux? The answer is: Totally fair question, but it's very unlikely. Here's a little discussion about why!

Try auditioning your cues! #QLab #QLabTips

in all these years of making QLab we've never bothered to count how many people are actually using it... until last month. turns out over 100,000 different computers in the world ran QLab in the last 5 weeks, and about 10,000 unique computers run it per day. this is blowing my mind.

dear all the people still using version 4: take note! v5 delights await you!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth at USITT! (The sound of the drill at "we're working hard on it" was a paid actor.) #QLab

I hung back for a moment to take this photo of Ethan and @alecsparks.bsky.social marching down the fancy conference center bridge at USITT in Ohio. I had a truly wonderful time talking to many MANY people about object audio in QLab. We're SO excited to finish it up soon, and get it into your hands.

Hi from USITT in Columbus Ohio!

Hey QLab Fam! Join us at USITT this Wednesday at 3pm in the sound room We'll show you something new...

a little tip vis a vis my day job (i work for @qlab.app): chatgpt and google gemini are especially useless at giving qlab answers. for whatever reason, they are consistently, spectacularly wrong about qlab.

Coming to USITT next week? Join us in the sound room on Wednesday March 5th at 3pm @usitt.bsky.social we'll be showing something new 👀 🔊 🎛️ 💫

How to duck! Audio! #QLab #QLabTips

Having a fun time pushing an Allen&HeathSQ5 to it’s absolute limits with an immersive hiphop show. We’re using QLab for playback & automation cuing with a live DJ & electric guitar on top of it, but also all the mixing is going to be scene recall triggered by QLab triggered by softkeys on the mixer.

What's the basic difference between the UDP and TCP network protocols? If you send show control messages over a network, this is important to know! #QLab #QLabTips
