Congrats on the launch!

I tried to built something similar in go and wails but quickly hit roadblock with some critical features that required high time precision.

I wonder if I could use it for my use case, do you have any roadmap?

View on HN

i have a backlog but no roadmap. audionaut is very precise when it comes to timing if that's what you mean or what's your use case?

My use case is pretty unique I guess and not something you built audionaut for. I do small live gigs in a local place where I sometimes need to operate lights, screen and play music at the same time and need something I can cue things to multiple software/devices through osc, websocket, tcp during music playback. I know there is already software for that but I didn't find anything I could run and quickly operate during the rehearsal before the event.

I was just wondering if you planed to add some features like markers or cue for integrations.

to be honest i was not planning to add features like that but it's very tempting. Supporting OSC is easy but a proper and useful mapping of parameters will take more brain work. i used OSC way back with PD and Reaktor.. the network layer adds latency with is ok with video sync... i have to revisit, it's years back.

thanks for your feedback, i added this topic to my backlog.

This is something that I’m interested in as well. My wife generally uses QLab for this and gets a lot of mileage out of it, but often enough ends up wanting this or that extra feature that just isn’t there.

I’m not sure that integrating it into a DAW is the way to go, but there’s definitely a need there.

You want REAPER

I actually use Reaper a lot for something else and tried to use it for gigs too but Reaper seems to be able only to receive osc commands, couldnt find a way to send any. I think its possible to write custom cpp extension for that but cpp is not my comfort zone.
