The main-stage tempo layer trusted across thirty-one festivals in 2024.
Replace the cable-and-dongle stack at FOH with one timeline that locks audio, lighting, and video to a sample-accurate clock. Promoters approve the show in the cloud. Crews walk on with a 3-button busking console. Every cue fires.

Numbers your stage manager can hand to a venue owner.
Cloud-rendered setlist previews end the rehearsal-day argument.
Promoters, brand partners, and stage managers open a browser link and walk the full 90-minute show the day before load-in. They can pause on any cue, leave a comment, and sign off in the same window. Lighting, video, and audio cues all appear in their final stage positions — no rig on site needed.
- Resolve cue, lighting, and brand sign-off before truck day.
- Comment on any frame, route notes back to the artist in one thread.
- Lock the approved version as the immutable source of truth.
- Export a printable rider so FOH and the promoter share one document.
Every act on your stage, locked to one timeline.
A venue tech director opens a single BeatSyndrome operator window at the start of the shift and leaves it open until doors close. Audio, lighting, and video for the opener, the headliner, and the afterparty all live as separate cue stacks on the same transport. The clock never resets. The busking console is the same three buttons whether the act is a local support or a closing-room main-stage bill.
Multi-act handover in seconds
Load the next act's prepared file, the transport parks at the first downbeat, MIDI and DMX handshakes complete automatically.
Single surface for the FOH engineer
Audio, lighting, and video boards collapse to one screen with three grouped lanes — no tab-juggling during a 14-act day.
Built-in redundancy on show day
If a controller drops, the cloud cue-sync service keeps the transport running until the spare is hot-swapped in.
One rider document per venue
Standardize what every touring artist must submit. If it is a BeatSyndrome file, the load-in timeline is published with the room.
We standardised every stage at our 2024 edition on BeatSyndrome. The control-room operators, the festival tech managers, and the headlining crews were reading the same show at the same time. That has never happened for us before.
Questions your tech director will raise in the first meeting.
Will Beat Syndrome work with the consoles and controllers we already own?
Out of the box, yes. BeatSyndrome ships with native integration for 84 hardware controllers and 22 lighting consoles, including the grandMA2, Avolites, and the standard Ableton control surface family. Custom MIDI and OSC mappings are written once and saved per venue.
What does a typical venue rollout look like, week by week?
Most rooms move from signed contract to first show in three weeks. Week one is hardware audit and rider template setup. Week two is staff training on the operator console. Week three is a shadow load-in with a touring act. Cloud cue-sync goes live immediately and survives local network outage for the duration of a single set.
How do you handle the load-in day with a touring crew that uses a different system?
If the incoming crew ships a BeatSyndrome file, they plug in and the show runs. If they ship an Ableton or Resolume session, BeatSyndrome's native bridge brings it onto the same timeline without re-routing MIDI through loopback. If they ship something else, your operator can busk with the three-button console and still keep the room locked to the stage clock.
What does it cost and what is the licensing model?
Venue and festival pricing is annual, per control room, with volume tiers for multi-stage operators. Cloud cue-sync uptime and onboarding are included. Demos include a tailored proposal — request one below and the team will come back within two business days.
