QLab 5

ShowRevue only supports QLab 5.

QLab cue events arrive on the same listener path that ShowRevue uses for live cue capture.

Setup​

In QLab 5:

  • Open Workspace Settings → Network → OSC Access.
  • Turn on Allow OSC access.
  • Set the OSC Port to match ShowRevue, usually 53000.
  • If the workspace uses an OSC passcode, enter the same passcode in ShowRevue → Preferences → QLab → Passcode.
  • If you want ShowRevue to fire cues back to QLab, make sure the OSC access level allows ShowRevue to control or fire cues.
  • Set the destination IP to the Mac running ShowRevue.
  • Confirm ShowRevue's Reply Port is available, usually 53001.

In ShowRevue:

  • Open Preferences → QLab.
  • Enter the QLab IP address.
  • Confirm the QLab Port matches the QLab 5 workspace, usually 53000.
  • Confirm the Reply Port matches the port ShowRevue should listen on for QLab replies, usually 53001.
  • If QLab 5 has a passcode set for OSC access, enter the same value in Passcode.
  • Confirm ShowRevue and QLab are on the same local network.

QLab cues appear in the Media tab.

During playback:

  • Click the cannon icon on a QLab cue row to fire that cue again.
  • Use FOLLOW to re-fire all recorded QLab cues at their original playback positions.

Follow mode and cue fireback should only be used when the workspace is ready to receive live commands.
