Patcher
Read full descriptionHide full description
Patcher is the input list, done properly. Build the channel chart for a show, see where every line lands on the stage, and get it to the people who need it — from your phone, at the desk. THE CHANNEL CHART Every input and output in one list: the name, the console patch, the stage patch, which stage box it lands in, the group it belongs to, the device on the end of it, and the notes that matter at line check. SEE THE STAGE, NOT A SPREADSHEET The stage box view shows the actual sockets, laid out the way the box is, colour-coded by group. Working out what is in socket 14 takes a glance instead of a scroll. A LIBRARY THAT REMEMBERS Save the groups and endpoint devices you use on every show — the mics, the DIs, the packs — and they autocomplete on the next one. The second chart takes a fraction of the time the first did. IT WORKS WITH NO SIGNAL Venues have terrible reception, and load-in is exactly when you need the chart. Patcher keeps the last show you opened on the device and tells you how old that copy is, so you can read every screen with no bars at all. SHARE IT WITH THE PEOPLE WHO NEED IT Invite the monitor engineer as an editor, or anyone else as a viewer. Or hand the whole list over as a CSV through the share sheet, which works over AirDrop with no network between you at all. BUILT FOR THE ROOM IT IS USED IN A dark theme that stays dark, controls big enough to hit one-handed, and a layout that works on a phone in your pocket and on an iPad on the desk. No adverts, no tracking, no analytics. Just the patch.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Patcher at none against Equalizer's 7. Patcher also leads on ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
