Virtual Console Audio Triggers
Starting from QLC+ version 4.4.0, this functionality allows you to use an audio input source like a
microphone, to add more life to your light shows.
1 Introduction
When clicking on the icon, an audio trigger widget will be added to your Virtual Console.
The widget graphics area shows the live monitoring of the captured audio, displaying a number
of spectrum bars and a volume bar.
On the bottom you can see the range of frequencies analyzed by QLC+
2 Configuration
When double clicking on the widget in design mode, a panel is displayed, showing a complete
set of options to tune the audio triggers functionality.
The first thing you can configure is the number of spectrum bars that you want to display and that
you will need during your live show. The accepted number is between 5 and 32.
Once decided the number of bars, you can proceed to assign a functionality to each bar. There is
a list showing the following options for the volume and spectrum bars:
Name
Can be "Volume Bar" or a spectrum bar shown as #number (start frequency - end
frequency). Example: #5 (1250Hz - 1562Hz)>
Type
Indicates the type of functionality the bar will control. It can be:
None - No functionality assigned
DMX - Controls single DMX channels
Function - Controls a QLC+ function
VC Widget - Controls a Virtual Console widget (at the moment only
buttons, sliders and tapping of speed dials)
Assign
When a type is selected, a button with icon is displayed to allow you to
connect the bar to the desired functionality. Depending on which type you chose,
clicking on this button will display the DMX channels, Functions or Virtual
Console widgets selection dialogs.
Info
This column displays some additional information regarding the bar--functionality
association.
Depending on the type you chose, here you will find the number of DMX
channels, the function name or the VC Widget name selected
Disable
threshold
When selecting a Function or a VC Widget button, this column allows you to set a
deactivation threshold percentage. When the spectrum or volume bar will go
below this value, the associated function/VC button will be stopped/deactivated.
