Show multimedia control software
Hi, I've got a MacBook running OS X Tiger. I'm looking for something better than iTunes to run music files during shows. I've looked at QLab, but that's only for Leopard. Could someone give some suggestions?

Re: Show multimedia control software
I would suggest upgrading because that is going to be cheaper then the other options.

Re: Show multimedia control software
I would like to do that, but I don't have $150 dollars on hand to upgrade. I'm only a student, so most of the stuff in the theater is financed by the school.

The other option is to load up sun box and a copy of Windows 7, Vista, or XP and Multiplay. I think the Windows 7 beta is over, so that might put a kink in the works.

Windows 7 is in RC mode at the moment, it is free, and will remain free until next year.

As to the OP, what types of things are you looking for the program to control? Do you need editing? Do you want the program to control more than just audio cues?

Re: Show multimedia control software
I'd like it to simply be able to play songs one at a time (don't do on to the next one). I would also prefer it to have a waveform editor, so I can add heads/tails to it, but that's not necessary.
For now I'm using iTunes, but that's not the best way to do it.

Re: Show multimedia control software
Turn loop off on iTunes, then it will play them one at a time. Audacity is a great free .WAV editor, I'm not sure what the Mac equivalent is.

Re: Show multimedia control software
Ah excellent! So all you need to do to get the desired effect is to use Audacity & turn Loop Off in iTunes, there's your criteria met!
