### 5/5 — Reliable! Just great!

*2025-09-21*

Audio Ape Pro and Lab Monkey are a fantastic combination. They are the workhorse behind my touring shows. For several years now, from small 200 seat theatres to 2,500 seat venues. Highly recommended! :-)

### 5/5 — A huge help!

*2019-08-14, version 3.1*

If you use QLab you need this!  It makes it possible to leave your computer in the sound booth and still be able to see what is happening from the stage on your phone.  Love it!

### 5/5 — This paired with Media Monkey is a dream team

Wow! The peace of mind this app gives along with the audio ape products is everything I have been looking for! If you are a professional performer and you want your cues to be flawless this is a no brainer!!!

### 1/5 — Doesn't see any workspaces

*2018-01-12, version 1.3*

While it can see when I open QLab, it doesn't see any of the workspaces I open or create.

### 5/5 — Great App!!!!

Love this app!  The audio ape and media monkey are just as great as this app!  Wonderful customer support, and quality hardware to go with this quality software. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

### 5/5 — Pure gold!

*2017-12-30*

LOVE everything created by Audio Ape! I think I literally have purchased everything they've made. Maybe not the T-shirt. But, seriously, the dude makes quality products inside and out. And Lab Monkey is no exception. Works flawlessly with Q-lab and keeps me in control of my cues and stress free throughout my show, since I can finally SEE what's coming up! Everything Chuck Peachock makes turns to gold. He knows his stuff.
