VENUE 5.4 software offers new capabilities to the S6L live console’s Snapshot and Events architecture to streamline and accelerate programming of theater or complex live sound productions. These include new momentary (non-sequential) snapshots, snapshot groups, parent/child snapshots and now up to 96 aux sends can be added to the snapshot Scope. Sound designers and engineers now have greater flexibility to trigger events via external MIDI commands, LTC/MTC timecode values, the channel color and X&Y switches on the control surface, meter levels and more, making almost all parameters available as triggers and actions. Version 5.4 also lets users freely assign outputs between networked S6L systems sharing I/O, enabling engineers to assign Stage 64 outputs per output card instead of having to assign a Stage 64 entirely to one S6L system or another.
