Audio Console Patch Planner
Plan your console patch routing with auto-assignment, conflict detection, and one-click show file generation for M32, CL5, SQ, and S6L consoles.
The Gap Between Your Input List and Your Console
You've got your input list finalized. 48 channels, mic types assigned, phantom power noted. But translating that list into your console's patch is still a manual process. Which console ports map to which stage box inputs? How do DCA groups align with your channel layout? What happens when you need to re-patch three channels at the last minute?
Every console has different constraints — channel limits, bus counts, name length restrictions, DCA grouping rules. If you're switching between an M32 at one venue and a CL5 at the next, you're essentially rebuilding your patch from scratch each time. And if the monitor engineer wants a different split, you're cross-referencing two patch sheets by hand.
How Stage Tech Pro Solves This
Stage Tech Pro connects your input list directly to your console patch. Auto-assignment handles port mapping, and the Show File Generator translates everything into console-specific formats. Supported consoles include Midas M32, Yamaha CL5, Allen & Heath SQ5/6/7, and Avid S6L. Per-channel editing of phantom power, HPF, DCA groups, bus assignments, and FX sends. Console-specific limits are enforced automatically — max channels, buses, DCA groups, name length, and stereo linking. Export as OSC scripts, CSV, JSON, or PDF depending on your target console.
