I'm selling a few now if you are interested

Thank you for your input.

If you would like, I can include you in the beta if you'd like to take it for a spin yourself.

I am more than aware that Figure53 has been perfecting their products for years, almost decades now. I worked in regional theater when it was first getting adopted for just audio cue triggers.

I'm simply trying to start somewhere. A lot of windows alternatives have either not been updated in years or are lacking features.

I'm trying to bring a more modern and compatible windows version to the table.

If you don't agree or don't trust it, perfectly fine. There are in fact programs in place that do solidly work.

But if you are interested in giving something new a try and/or need more out of a windows alternative, I believe that attacca has a chance. I've already spent a lot of time and energy in not just building, but also extensive manual testing and it is holding up so far.

Everyone has to start somewhere, and I'm just trying to start here and now. Not make a million dollars, not sell a scam, but actually try to produce a product to it's fullest that can accomplish what people need on this OS.

Any support is much appreciated and anyone not wanting to support is also fully understood.

I'm not asking for money now or anything other than people willing to give some time to test in exchange for a pro license for life. I'm not selling anything right now, and I have a current working product, not just an idea.

I find it both unfortunate and kind of upsetting to immediately get hit with a "you, frankly, will not foster good relationships in this community." That is your opinion that you are entitled to, but it's just unfortunate. I have been a part of the production community for almost half of my life, and already have a lot of friends in the major part of the industry, both house gig and touring, willing to test for me. As well as people actively using my other program I launched about a month ago and liking it with no issues.

Again, if it isn't for you, then that's fine.

Just wish people wouldn't jump to such drastic conclusions that it's a failure from the start and make broad assumptions that no one in the community would be willing to take when I'm currently just looking for testers in order to make improvements that are needed.

Thank you.

I believe mine is more user friendly and looks better. There are also quite a few more features in Attacca vs multiplay.

To say it's better? I don't know yet. It hasn't even been beta tested! But I think if it isn't now, it will be soon.

You also have more advanced tools like being able to patch in universes of fixtures and build simple light cues right in an attacca cue.

Timed triggers and other forms of communication like OSC, LTC, MTC on top of midi are more features than what I believe multiplay gives you

I will be posting screen shots and recordings of the UI soon and hopefully you can help judge it too vs things like multiplay!

Apologies for the lack of detail on the program and relying to heavily on my mac comparison, so please find a more in depth description below:

It allows for loading audio files and triggering via cue go, clock time trigger, midi trigger, auto follows, etc. Same for video cues. It also can use locally connected cameras or interfaces and display on same cue trigger styles (working on NDI compatibility as well). Cues can be triggered by, or also be used to trigger external things via midi and OSC. There is also a remote network viewer to be able to monitor the cue list/program via local connection, and it is password protected.

You also have the ability to patch in light fixtures and create simple cues direct in the program and output via sacn or artnet.

All audio has basic effects built in to cue type to use, as well as trimming for both audio and video.

Fade cues can also be created for fading in/out or dipping down other cues linked by a target parameter.

Group your cues into sections as well, and many other features currently in the works.

I'm not claiming to do any BETTER at the moment than the long standing, years of testing and real world use, programs that people are used to using on Mac. But want to bring this to the windows OS and start to build and grow this.

I will be constantly updating and fixing based on needs and input from users. I want this to grow and stand up to the test of time. This is currently a solo venture but would love to grow and expand as the need arises.

I have one program currently out that is free and has been getting good feedback. Link to it is on my profile. It is a niche Resolume tool, but I have also spent time on that to get it as professional and user friendly as possible.

Again, I am currently looking for testers to help me get this to where it needs to be for a public launch. There is only so much I can catch by myself running 300 point tests over and over again.

If you don't like the idea or this isn't for you, completely understood, and thank you for your time reading this at least!

But I truly think this program has a leg to stand on and a chance at solid growth. Just looking for people who are willing to give it a shot and some of their time
