MSC Show Control vs CommandGO

MSC Show Control turns your iPhone or iPad into a remote for any lighting console or show software that accepts MIDI Show Control (MSC) — Vista, QLab, MagicQ, grandMA2, Onyx, and more. Free to use. If it earns its place in your show kit, there's an optional tip jar — it unlocks nothing, it just keeps the app maintained. Set up your cuelists and cue shortcuts once, connect to the machine running your show, and fire cues from big, glove-friendly buttons built for live use. FEATURES • GO, STOP, RESUME and RELEASE per cuelist, plus a grid of one-tap cue shortcuts • Works over Apple network MIDI (RTP-MIDI): automatic discovery of hosts on your network, or connect manually by IP • grandMA2 “MSC over Ethernet” (UDP) transport • Per-server MSC device ID, configurable command format • Live hex readout of every message sent — see exactly what went on the wire • Cue numbers are sent exactly as you type them, decimals included • Screen stays awake during your show; no accounts, no ads, no analytics, no paywall WORKS WITH Any MSC-capable receiver. macOS hosts work out of the box via Audio MIDI Setup’s Network session. Windows hosts work with the free rtpMIDI driver. Built by a church tech, for everyone who runs cues from the booth.

CommandGO is a show-ready music player and lighting trigger for the CommandGO hardware unit. Build cue markers on a waveform, send OSC cues on time, and run your whole show from one clear screen. Highlights: Perform mode: Big GO/STOP, elapsed & remaining timers, show list, and a 3×3 grid of Quick Cues with custom labels and colors. Edit mode: See the waveform, add/rename cue markers, jump to previous/next cues, and fine-tune timing with a simple slider. Precise OSC triggers: Fire cues at markers or tap any Quick Cue—CommandGO sends the OSC message immediately over your local network. Shows & songs: Organize tracks into shows, save markers to disk, and reload your set in seconds. Low-latency feel: Optional latency adjustment to match your environment. Fast and reliable: Works fully offline. No sign-in. No cloud. Just your device and your CommandGO unit. Requirements: Lighting control features require a CommandGO hardware unit on the same local network. OSC is sent via UDP to the IP/port you configure in the app. Privacy: CommandGO does not collect personal data. Settings (like IP/port), shows, and markers are stored locally on your device. Support & Manual: Manual, tips, and hardware purchase: commandgo.net Run the show. Hit GO. CommandGO handles the rest.
