QLab appears in the October 2007 issue of Live Sound International magazine: A trip to mid-town Manhattan without taking in a Broadway show would be like skipping Restaurant Row or Ray’s Pizza. With AES’ 123rd Convention in the Big Apple, we visited four top shows to see what equipment is used when the stakes are [...]
It seems that Bobby Anderson really hit one out of the park when he designed the new icon for QLab. I’ve stumbled across several posts on the world wide interweb about his work. The links pretty much sum it up in and of themselves: http://brisbanecreative.com.au/links/the-most-beautiful-os-x-app-icon-ive-ever-seen/ http://scottkoon.org/2007/08/15/im-in-awe-of-icon-designers/ Lucky me, I got his last icon before he [...]
QLab at Oracle Open World, Shanghai. Philip Barrett recently sent in this photo, writing to say: Much excitement about QLab from my Beijing & Singapore crew, especially as they are mostly MacBook users. This was then followed by a kind message from Jimmy Cheong, who wrote to say: Hi, I’m Jimmy Cheong, I work as [...]
In case it wasn’t already obvious, our users are awesome. I got an email from Dave Mickey last night (who you may remember has already appeared on the QBlog twice before), who wrote to say he has written a proof-of-concept iPhone app for controlling QLab: http://www.theaterdog.com/QLabRemote/ That might just beeeee….thecoolestthingever. Dave, if you were trying [...]

On May 2nd (the last day of classes at Virginia Tech) several of us independent Mac developers donated all our sales for the day to the Virginia Tech memorial fund. I’m happy to say that Figure 53 was able to donate $563 to the fund, helping to raise a grand total of $2433 for the [...]
On May 2nd, Figure 53 will be joining a group of independent Mac developers raising money for those affected by the recent events at Virginia Tech. The organizer of this fund raiser is indie developer Lee Falin, head of Polarian Technology and a graduate student at Virginia Tech. You can see the full list of [...]
The Figure 53 newswire has been pretty quiet since releasing QLab 1.0. But, lest you should think the factory has been shut down and the forges cooled, I’m here to relay the message that work has quietly continued. (These virtual factories don’t have the benefit of smokestacks to broadcast their mysterious activity from afar, so [...]
0.9.8 went out the door last night. Be sure to check out the new “Updates” window available from the “QLab” menu. It’s your new one stop shop for finding, installing, and updating QLab plugins. QLab is now in feature freeze. I’m going to let it sit and settle for one week while you fine folks [...]
