Hi !
Working with Qlab these days.
Any easy way to control the Qlab from my Titan V15?
Basically I want the Avo cuelist GO to be able to launch the Qlab video clip.

Thanks!!

While it's rather common to control Titan from Qlab (usually using MSC), the other way 'round seems to be a little more demanding. According to https://qlab.app/docs/v4/control/using- ... trol-qlab/ Qlab can be controlled by MIDI. In your example you would need any Avo hardware from T2 or above to enable USB MIDI support, then use macros like this to output MIDI notes - you can simply load this macro into your cuelist cues. Additionally you might need rtpMIDI to send MIDI via network.

So: it is perfectly doable. However you might consider different ways, e.g.
  • do it the other way 'round and send MSC from Qlab into Titan
  • use another video playback system which can be controlled via Art-Net or sACN
  • maybe use Ai and Synergy (this is probably not worthwhile for a single clip but is very interesting if you have bigger plans)
