The Toolkit

Every feature your show
actually needs.

Stability isn't a feature. It's a requirement. Power isn't optional. It's expected.

3D Immersive Audio

Real-time sound object positioning with physical distance-based gain modeling. Native 5.1, 7.1 and 7.1.4 Immersive Audio rendering — no external renderer needed.

Per-Pad DSP Engine

Every single pad gets its own 7-band parametric EQ, dynamics compressor, and reverb. That's up to 160 independent signal chains running at once.

Flexible Routing

Send any pad to any output of your audio interface. Up to 128 outputs on macOS. Perfect for immersive theater and multichannel broadcast.

Trigger Anything

Mouse, touch, keyboard F-keys, MIDI, GPIO / USB-PIO, and Stream Deck via Bitfocus Companion. All routes, zero latency.

Mission-Critical Ready

Master/Slave Redundancy Sync over WebSocket. Automatic crash recovery. 30-step undo/redo. Built for shows that cannot fail.

Smart Multichannel Import

Drop a multichannel WAV, PLayer detects it, asks for channel order and auto-splits to the right outputs. Stems, 5.1, 7.1.4 — imported in seconds.

No sub-menus. No hidden tabs. A 5×4 pad grid across 8 renamable pages — 160 cues always one click away.

  • Drag & drop directly from Finder / Explorer
  • Smart fill — your existing pads are never overwritten
  • Instant visual feedback & color-coded pads
  • Touch-friendly: designed for booth & tablet operation

Precision Editing

Cue it.
Fade it. Nail it.

Draggable Cue In/Out markers, DAW-style fade handles, and a transient detection algorithm with Magnet Mode that snaps your edits to the beat.

Zoom up to 500× to set your cues and fades sample-accurate. Preview cursor plays from anywhere on the timeline — even outside the cue region.

Full Control

One pad.
A dozen ways to fire.

Trigger pads by mouse, touch, F-keys, MIDI note, GPIO edge, or a Stream Deck button — with real-time color and label feedback over Companion.

Immersive Audio

Beyond stereo.
Into the space.

The integrated 3D Spatial Panner lets you fly sounds through the auditorium with mouse or game controller. 3D real-time visualization, physical distance attenuation.

No external Atmos renderer. No extra licensing. No additional latency.

Built for the show

One tool.
Every production.

From a two-mic podcast to an Immersive Audio theater show, PLayer scales with your ambitions.

Broadcast

Jingles, stabs, beds and sound effects at the press of a Stream Deck button. Broadcast-level loudness per pad thanks to +24 dB headroom and integrated compression.

  • Real-time Companion feedback
  • MIDI Out to lighting / video cues
  • Stop groups for mutually exclusive beds

Live Theater

Organize your show by Act, by Scene, by Character. Page names, color coding, and Play Groups for perfect multichannel stem playback — without missing a line.

  • Sample-accurate play groups
  • Programmable stop-delay fades
  • Master/Slave show redundancy

Immersive & Live Events

Native 7.1.4 Atmos, 3D panning, hardware GPIO triggers. Place thunder above the audience, fly voices through the room — no external Atmos renderer required.

  • Up to 128 physical outputs (macOS)
  • Smart multichannel import
  • Game-controller 3D positioning
Mission-Critical Ready

The show must go on.

Two machines. One show. Zero panic. Built-in redundancy and recovery that other samplers simply don't have.

Redundancy Sync

Two PLayer instances synced over WebSocket in a Master/Slave topology. Every pad edit, play, pause and volume change is mirrored in real time — typically < 1 ms on a local gigabit network.

MASTER
SLAVE

If the Master crashes mid-show, switch the Slave to Standalone and keep playing — with the exact same state, down to the current pad's progression.

Crash Recovery

Power outage, system crash, accidental shutdown — PLayer continuously autosaves your entire project in the background. On restart, you get your show back, exactly where you left it.

  • Auto-save every 30 seconds (debounced)
  • 30-step Undo / Redo stack
  • XML project export

Frequently Asked

Questions & Answers

Is PLayer compatible with Dolby Atmos ?
Yes. PLayer natively renders up to 7.1.4 immersive audio on macOS via Core Audio and ASIO on Windows — no external Atmos renderer required. Each pad gets its own 3D spatial panner with physically modeled distance attenuation.
How does the Stream Deck / Companion integration work?
PLayer talks to Bitfocus Companion over HTTP, exposing real-time variables for every pad: name, color, state, progression. A ready-made Companion preset is provided with your license — plug your Stream Deck in and you're live in minutes.
What happens if my machine crashes mid-show?
Two safety layers. First, the Redundancy Sync mirrors your entire show state to a second machine over WebSocket — the operator can switch the Slave to Standalone and keep going. Second, on reboot, PLayer's Crash Recovery system reloads your project exactly where it left off, with the last 30 undo steps.
Can I trigger pads from hardware other than MIDI?
Absolutely. Beyond full MIDI In support, PLayer supports GPIO / USB-PIO via the official PLayer GPIObox — plus keyboard F-keys and Stream Deck through Companion.
Is this a subscription?
No. It's a one-time payment lifetime license. You pay once, you own it. All v1.x updates are free.
Can I import my existing multichannel stems?
Yes. Drop a multichannel WAV onto the grid and PLayer's Smart Multichannel Import detects it, asks you for the channel order, and auto-assigns each channel to the correct pad and physical output — ready to play back as a 5.1 or 7.1.4 stem.
Is there a student or educator discount?
Yes of course: A student/educator license is 49€ TTC. Send a request by email at pierre.laurens.audio@gmail.com
We will verify your student or educator information before approving your purchase. To apply, you’ll need:
1. A proof of eligibility document (either a signed and dated letter from a teacher or program administrator confirming your enrollment, or a dated copy of your current course schedule).
2. A valid government-issued photo identification (like a driver’s license, passport, or national identity card).
