FX Live 3

iPhone / Musique

FX Live 3 is a powerful sound cue control application designed for theater use but suitable for all live productions. Far more than a simple cart machine, this highly responsive and intuitive application allows you to design and automate complex audio and video elements for any live production.

FX Live 3 fully unlocks the potential of the iPad as a professional show FX controller. It features the ability to sequence multiple virtual FX players with programmable crossfades between the different elements.

In app purchase provides full access to EQ and DSP effects along with the ability to send and receive MIDI messages.

Also included is the multimedia option allows photos and videos to be included in shows with smooth mixed and fades between them. This can be done at the same time as playing audio elements.

The iPad's touch interface is ideal for this kind of application and FX Live has been designed to be fast and easy to use for everyone from the occasional user doing a school production to those creating complex, multi-layered shows in a professional or semi-professional environment.

Beautifully designed with documentation and support, this rock solid application is a must for anyone doing live sound.

The free version is fully featured but limits the number of cues and simultaneous effects; even so, it is ideal for small scale school productions.

The unrestricted version is available by In App Purchase.

by Booch_21 - Version - 1.0 - Jan 20, 2015

This is a great improvement over the previous version. I've been using it to run sound for several shows and this program can't be beat!

Yes!
by Zteiner - Version - 1.0 - Feb 1, 2015

Absolutely conceived for theatre shows, so for that kind of use is quite perfect and it let you do easily your audio work during the show. Maybe it can be used for other situations too, anyway, for theatre is very good and the new layout is very more clear and useful. ;-)

Awesome!
by Fauxhuman - Version - 1.3.1 - Feb 8, 2015

This was my first job doing sound design for a live theater production. I found FX Live in the App Store, played with the free version a bit, and then decided to purchase the full app. It has been absolutely fantastic! Solid, versatile, capable... Some things took playing with to nail down how to use it, but there's included documentation to help with that as well. I've been getting lots of kudos for a job well done and FX Live made it very easy for me! A great app, I've already recommended it to friends. Thank you for such a thorough app!

Many shows many cues zero problems 5

This app is an amazing tool for all of us low budget folks who can't afford cue lab. It's also something I am able to program and edit even tho I am a tech challenged solo performer.

Really great for our productions! 4
by What's G13 do, tommy? – Jan 31, 2017

We are a small village group running a Pantomime once a year and the ease with which we can build our shows using FX live is just great! We've done 2 years with it now and it really does make a difference. It's a specialised piece of software so it's normal to have to pay more than for your usual app, but it's still great value for money. I had several people asking me if I was a sound professional this year! Advice: Start early with setting up your cues and make sure you've got plenty of script / action reminders so you can work without the script during the show, and you can hand off to someone less familiar with it if there's a crisis!

Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?

New Features

Design Screen: Duplicate Cue**
A new duplicate button (doc-on-doc icon) in the cue list header creates a full copy of the currently selected cue and inserts it immediately after, with " (copy)" appended to the name.

Perform Screen: Toggleable Cue Notes Panel
The Cue notes panel on the perform screen can now be toggled between showing the current cue's notes and the next cue's notes. A colored indicator (green for current, gold for next) shows which cue's notes are being displayed. Tap the panel or the toggle button to switch between views.

Perform Screen: Next Cue Name on GO Button
The GO button now displays the name of the next cue centred beneath the GO text, so operators can always see what will fire next at a glance.

Perform Screen: Elapsed Time on Active Effects
Each active effect card now shows an elapsed time clock alongside the existing countdown clock, giving operators a clear view of both how long an effect has been playing and how much time remains.

Bug Fixes

Perform Screen: Music cue volume adjustments now saved correctly
Adjusting the volume slider for incidental music effects on the perform screen now correctly saves the level back to the cue's Music effect. Previously, changes were applied to the audio in real-time but lost on the next cue fire. The volume is also correctly applied when the cue is replayed or recued. Note: performance mode still prevents any level changes from being saved.

Fixed an issue when going to the settings screen could cause an audio level change.

Design Screen: Renumber Cues preserves custom names
Renumbering cues no longer overwrites manually defined cue names.

Design Screen: Cue list now updates immediately on name changes
Editing a cue or effect name now reflects instantly in the cue list without needing to select another cue.
