  • Clean web-interface optimized for mobile, tablet, or monitor
  • Autonomous Mode: delegate pages to a team member.

HTTP GET Triggering
Integration Protocols

HTTP GET Pad Triggering

Seamlessly trigger any PAD over standard HTTP GET requests. Perfect for interfacing with professional broadcast controllers like VSM or Cerebrum, which can now easily command audio carts in real-time.

No complicated setups. Simply fire a URL query from your hardware console, and PLayer triggers the target pad instantly with zero noticeable latency.

Cues & Repeat Control

Advanced Loop System

Define repeat segments directly on the waveform editor. Perfect for creating endless soundscapes, backings, or emergency timing loops during live broadcasts.

  • Seamless repeat regions
  • Loop counter limit or infinite loop mode
  • "Exit loop" trigger to exit gracefully at the end of the active iteration
Advanced Loop System
Gang Mode
Multi-Pad Editing

The Gang Mode

Link multiple PADs together to act in a single move.

Save time by linking your PADs into a temporary group. Whenever you set the volume, routing, assigning to a play-group on a PAD, all ganged PADs instantly mirror that state.

Efficiency Improvements

Copy/Paste Pages

Speed up your pre-production phase by duplicating entire grids of PADs. Quickly clone complex pages with individual EQ, outputs, volumes, and trigger setups in seconds.

  • Duplicate all 20 pads of a page with one simple action
  • Preserve routing configurations, MIDI maps, and DSP parameters
  • Clone setups easily to rearrange layout for live performances

Frequently Asked

Questions & Answers

Is PLayer compatible with Dolby Atmos ?
Yes. PLayer natively renders up to 7.1.4 immersive audio on macOS via Core Audio and ASIO on Windows — no external Atmos renderer required. Each pad gets its own 3D spatial panner with physically modeled distance attenuation.
How does the Stream Deck / Companion integration work?
PLayer talks to Bitfocus Companion over HTTP, exposing real-time variables for every pad: name, color, state, progression. A ready-made Companion preset is provided with your license — plug your Stream Deck in and you're live in minutes.
What happens if my machine crashes mid-show?
Two safety layers. First, the Redundancy Sync mirrors your entire show state to a second machine over WebSocket — the operator can switch the Slave to Standalone and keep going. Second, on reboot, PLayer's Crash Recovery system reloads your project exactly where it left off, with the last 30 undo steps.
Can I trigger pads from hardware other than MIDI?
Absolutely. Beyond full MIDI In support, PLayer supports GPIO / USB-PIO via the official PLayer GPIObox — plus keyboard F-keys and Stream Deck through Companion.
Is this a subscription?
No. It's a one-time payment lifetime license. You pay once, you own it. All v2.x updates are free.
Can I import my existing multichannel stems?
Yes. Drop a multichannel WAV onto the grid and PLayer's Smart Multichannel Import detects it, asks you for the channel order, and auto-assigns each channel to the correct pad and physical output — ready to play back as a 5.1 or 7.1.4 stem.
Is there a student or educator discount?
Yes of course: A student/educator license is 49€ TTC. Send a request by email at
We will verify your student or educator information before approving your purchase. To apply, you’ll need:
1. A proof of eligibility document (either a signed and dated letter from a teacher or program administrator confirming your enrollment, or a dated copy of your current course schedule).
2. A valid government-issued photo identification (like a driver’s license, passport, or national identity card).
