New in Q Light Controller Plus 4.11.1 (Mar 5, 2018)

  • Highlights:
  • Finally we have web access authentication thanks to a user contribution ! Check the documentation for details. (Note: on the RPi image this feature is enabled by default)
  • When a Function attached to a Virtual Console Button is activated from another widget, the Button border will turn to orange, to indicate it's in "monitoring" state and not actually controlling the Function
  • By double clicking on a context tab (the ones at the bottom of the QLC+ window), it is now possible to detach them to a separate window
  • Qt libraries version bundled in Windows and macOS packages reverted to 5.6.2 LTS to work on older OSes. However, PLEASE consider upgrading your systems, cause QLC+ 5 will be more demanding (e.g. Windows 7+, macOS 10.10+)

New in Q Light Controller Plus 4.10.2b (Jan 21, 2016)

  • Highlights:
  • QLC+ now supports USB devices hotplug ! Please use this carefully, especially when (un)plugging devices that are transmitting/receiving. For now MIDI, DMXUSB, HID and Peperoni take advantage of this mechanism.
  • Removed the intensity parameter from the EFX editor. This (and the next item) are an encouragement for you to design modular light shows, where QLC+ Functions should have a logical meaning depending on the channels they control. It didn't really make sense to control the intenisty channel from a Function specifically designed for positions.
  • A Virtual Console Slider in playback mode will ignore fade in/out times. Again, for more flexibility, we decided that a Function attached to a Slider should be manually faded in and out. If you need fade automations, then the usage of Buttons and a Slider in submaster mode is the solution you're looking for.
  • It is now possible to perform a DMX dump on an existing Scene. This can come handy when editing an existing workspace to adapt it to new needs or a different stage set.
  • Preliminary support for rotary encoders. In the Input Profile editor, there's a new channel type called "Encoder" which tells QLC+ to treat incoming values as relative. Since devices do not behave all in the same way, feedbacks are welcome here to improve this feature.
  • Added Fixture group preset to XYPad widget. This is pretty useful to reduce the number of XYPad widgets in your Virtual Console and to select just the fixtures you need to control.
  • Also, the fixtures number is stunningly increasing. Thanks to everyone who submitted new fixtures and to Robert Box, who is doing an amazing job in patiently reviewing definitions and creating new ones.
  • Changelog:
  • Engine: added support for devices hotplug (DMX USB, MIDI, HID, Peperoni)
  • Engine: Universe passthrough data is now merged with QLC+ output, it is not affected by QLC+ processing (except for blackout) and it appears in the DMX monitor (Jano Svitok)
  • Audio: fixed playback of 24/32 bit wave files and Show Manager waveform preview
  • DMX Dump: it is now possible to dump DMX values on an existing Scene
  • ClickAndGo Widgets: Preset widgets now display the channel name on top of the capability list (David Garyga)
  • Function Manager: fix startup Function not cleared when deleting it (David Garyga)
  • Function Manager: highlight current startup Function when opening the Function selection dialog (David Garyga)
  • Function Selection: Don't lose the current selection when changing the function type filter (David Garyga)
  • Show Manager: fixed looped functions never stopping with certain durations (Jano Svitok)
  • Show Manager: fixed copy/paste of an existing Chaser
  • Show Manager: fix crashes when copying a sequence on an empty track (David Garyga)
  • Show Manager: repair conflicting sequences when loading a broken workspace (David Garyga)
  • EFX Editor: removed the intensity control. Please use separate Scenes for that
  • Virtual Console/Slider: fixed copy of the channel monitor mode (David Garyga)
  • Virtual Console/Slider: in level mode, activate only in operate mode and don't hold forced LTP channels (David Garyga)
  • Virtual Console/Slider: in playback mode, ignore the fade in/fade out of the attached Function (David Garyga)
  • Virtual Console/XYPad: added Fixture Group preset, to control a subgroup of Fixtures (see documentation)
  • Virtual Console/XYPad Properties: fixture ranges can now be set in degrees, percentage or DMX values
  • Virtual Console/XYPad Properties: fix manual input selection for presets (David Garyga)
  • Virtual Console/Cue List: improved mixed usage of crossfader and next/previous buttons (David Garyga)
  • Virtual Console/Cue List: fix effect of a submaster slider on a Cue List in crossfader mode (David Garyga)
  • Virtual Console/Cue List: fix crash when adding steps to the chaser being run by a Cue List (David Garyga)

New in Q Light Controller Plus 4.8.3 (Dec 29, 2014)

  • As you can see from the changelog, another big set of fixes and improvements have been addressed to increase the stability and the functionalities of QLC+.

  • The animation widget can now count also on individual RGB knobs. For this and many other improvements we need to thank David Garyga that has now became part of the QLC+ development team !
  • The Script function, this obscure part of QLC+, is now documented and has been improved. You can already achieve nice results with the random() macro and by calling external programs/scripts

  • Reworked audio triggers to allow multiple instances at the same time and with a different number of spectrum bars. Also, if placed in solo frames, they acquire the typical exclusive behaviour
