The Audio Toolbox vs ProdCom

The Audio Toolbox contains eight powerful functions, designed to help Live Sound Engineers: QLab Control: The Audio Toolbox searches the current WiFi Network for any computers running QLab. Once the QLab workspace is discovered you can perform basic transport controls on the workspace, such as start, stop and select cues. This has been made possible by the wonderful team at Figure 53, who have open sourced their OSC API, so thank you Figure 53. MIDI Tester: The MIDI Tester works in conjunction with any Made For iPhone compatible MIDI Interface, as well as Network and Bluetooth MIDI. It displays all the MIDI received into the phone, and is designed to help when fault finding any connectivity issues. As well as reading all standard MIDI messages, the MIDI Tester also reads all MIDI Show Control commands! MIDI Pad: MIDI Pad provides six customisable buttons, which can be configured to send standard MIDI messages to the MIDI Output of the phone. MIDI Pad works either wirelessly, over Bluetooth or WiFi, or via any connected MIDI Interface. You can use the MIDI Pad to trigger cues in QLab, add Macros to your DiGiCo or fire samples in Ableton Live. Delay Time Calculator Work out the delay times for all your loudspeakers. Just input a distance in either meters or feet and it will give you a time in milliseconds. You can even adjust the results based on the ambient temperature. Time Calculator: Time Calculator allows you to add, subtract, multiply or divide times together. Unlike any other app we can find on the App Store, Time Calculator can calculate time in milliseconds. Work with video? Time Calculator also works in video frames, supporting eight different frame rates. If you need to translate time between video frames and milliseconds, Time Calculator can do that too. Angle Recorder: Ever got into work to discover some of your speakers have been accidentally knocked? You can now record the angles of as many speakers as you like in one handy list. Want to check if any of them have moved? just click on an angle, hold the phone up to the speaker and the app will compare the results. The screen will go green and the phone will beep when you are all matched up. RF Toolbox: With RF Toolbox you can record all your transmitter information, including actor, character, frequency and gain information, in one place. You can record notes on each of your transmitters, for things like fitting and colouring information. Results are searchable by any of the recorded data. When you input frequency information, RF Toolbox will calculate the optimum aerial length, as well as the transmission channel. Clicker: Finally, for fine tuning your delay times, The Audio Toolbox includes a built in click sound! The click will loop for as long as you like, and interacts with the audio controls on the rest of the phone, so you can pause it from the lock screen.

ProdCom is a powerful real-time voice intelligence and control platform for live production environments. Free to download. An active subscription is required to access all app functionality. No functional features are available without an active subscription. Built by industry professionals, ProdCom turns voice communication into clear visual transcripts so nothing gets missed in loud or fast-paced situations. Monitor engineers can handle multiple mix requests at once, FOH engineers can mute their shout speaker or take off their comm headset and continue to communicate, and show callers can efficiently respond to simultaneous requests coming at them on their panel. FEATURES (Active Subscription Required) Multi-Channel Visual Transcription Convert multiple audio inputs into real-time, color-coded visual transcripts that can be used alongside voice communication or as a standalone solution. The number of available transcription channels varies by device. Channels & Groups Create individual channels for each audio input, with custom names and colors for instant recognition. Type messages directly into any channel for hybrid voice-and-text communication—ideal when you need to send a quick note without speaking. Organize channels into groups to view multiple speakers as a single, unified conversation. Customizable Layouts Design flexible layouts that match your workflow, using chat-style views or floating windows for individual channels or groups to maintain constant visual awareness. Keywords & Automations Highlight critical words automatically within transcripts. Create keywords instantly from selected transcript text, or customize them with colors, text replacement, or emojis. Build powerful automations using keyword detection, MIDI triggers, and in-app actions. OSC Control Send and receive Open Sound Control (OSC) messages over IP to integrate with lighting desks, media servers, and other production equipment. Trigger OSC commands with your voice through keyword automations, or use incoming OSC messages to control ProdCom—connecting your entire production workflow. Language & Translation Support Use any macOS/iOS On-Device Dictation language for speech processing—globally, per channel, or per group. Enable instant translation of any channel into your preferred language directly within ProdCom. Visual Alerts Unread indicators notify you when new transcripts occur outside your current view, while missed keyword indicators alert you when important words are detected but not visible. Etiquette Controls Optionally hide offensive language automatically. Network Channel & Group Sharing Securely share individual channels or entire groups with other ProdCom devices over any network for seamless multi-device team communication. Choose which network interface to broadcast on, and let auto-discovery handle the rest—remote groups appear with all their member channels, ready to view. Device & System Management Receive alerts for missing audio interfaces with quick relinking options, export transcripts for training or records, and back up or restore your ProdCom settings easily. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS ProdCom supports class compliant audio interfaces compatible with iOS.
