Very excited to announce the first beta of an application we've been developing for live musicians. It is a AU/VST plugin hosting app partially aimed at people who traditionally would have used a program like Apple MainStage but adds features and addresses some important issues that have been of concern to many. Why am I mentioning it here? Well, one of the objectives of Gig Rack was to make it easy to use from Max and in particular to be able to use it instead of the Max vst~ object. I wanted to be able to leverage some very significant Max patches that I've developed over the years for live performance and so making it easy to connect Max to Gig Rack and do "vst~ kinds of things" was important.

To that end, Gig Rack has OSC support that allows you to address plugins directly and send MIDI events as well as setting/getting plugin parameters, the latter of which can be received automatically back into Max by listening for certain OSC messages.

If you are interested, would love you to apply for the Beta. Please visit

I'm trying to find a new environment to reproduce my Audiomulch routing/preset management system as you can see here:

I feel I'm wasting a shameless amount time to learn, reproduce and check the playability of my set up in many environments while still feel far from the solution.

Beside Max, I've checked Live Professor, Bidule, Bitwig, Usine, Blogxpander, Bluecats' Patchwork, Cantabile and some other I've uninstalled already.

It would be great to finally find a smart and flexible environment.

this is great news!

well, this is a good time to get your two cents in then. While it is intended to be really usable as a standalone product, controlling it from other apps was an important requirement.

Update: GigRack is now called Gig Performer -- we're releasing in a couple of weeks but we have a presale in place for those who would like to get it now at a reduced price. For what it's worth, I just came off a tour with one of my bands where Gig Performer was used both by me in conjunction with Max (and yes, I have some convenient Max objects already for communicating with Gig Performer over OSC) and by our live sound engineer who used it to handle effects via sends/inserts from/to the mixing board. The program operated 100% flawlessly throughout the tour and integration with Max was pretty seamless.
