Audio Modeling Camelot Pro

Full Description

Arrange songs, scenes and setlists all in one place

The key to any show is your setlist. Giving the crowd the right rollercoaster ride of ups and downs whilst maintaining the flow, emotion and vibe is a fine balance to walk. Camelot allows you to organise your performances by setlists. Each song within your setlist features Scenes that are mapped to the Timeline. Scenes recall and organise all aspects of your performance, from hardware presets, MIDI connections, virtual instruments and effects presets, routing, music score attachments and more. What's more, whenever a scene is switched, the Smart Scene Transition technology allows for smooth audio and MIDI switches with no audible dropouts when parameters are changed. Scenes are comprised of Layers and Items, the building blocks of your performance. Layers and Items create the MIDI connections and communications as well as any other audio tone generators you have in your system.

Putting all of your songs in one place, Camelot Pro is the easiest way to create customised setlists for your performances. Innovative organisation features such as the Ghost copies allow you to create a new copy of the same song in a different setlist and apply global changes to all copies. For speeding up workflow, custom Templates allow you to very quickly make a setlist for a performance, these setlists can of course be imported and exported to different sessions and can include all audio files and attachments.

Multi-track audio mixing and editing

At the heart of Camelot Pro is the newly introduced Timeline feature. This window offers the chance to deep-dive into your setlist and create automated changes throughout to keep your show running smoothly. Attach backing tracks, stop/start markers and even create scene changes via automation. Structured similarly to your arranger window within a DAW, the Timeline window separates multiple audio tracks, creating individual outputs and automation lanes for specific functions throughout your setlist. Whether you're the drummer, keyboardist or guitar player, you'll be able to create hands-free switching to adjust parameters on the fly, without ever needing to take your hands off your instrument.

Think of the Timeline as your own personal stage tech. Reliable, always on time and with as many parameter switches as you need, the Timeline lets you focus on your performance without ever getting distracted on your rig. Automating your live show will give your audience a fluid performance, as close to your studio recordings as possible, letting them walk away from your show completely blown away. Split into three parts, the Scene, Backing Tracks and Markers timeline, you are given complete control over every aspect of your setlist. The Scene Timeline lets you sequence different scenes that can even recall hardware and software presets, MIDI routings and much more with the press of one button - or none at all if you want!

Customising your Timeline is easy, with colours, icons and rearrangement capabilities that let you create a tailored view that suits your workflow. What's more, all your imported backing tracks within your Timeline can be mixed, with their outputs individually configurable to create a harmonious sound that's consistent night and night between different PA systems and different venus.

Integrate your hardware and software seamlessly

The crux of the program, the hardware and software connectivity is beyond anything ever seen before. Any MIDI-enabled device is capable of integrating with your entire system. Not just limited to basic CC messages, Camelot Pro delivers a plug-and-play experience and has deep communication with your system. You can even recall hardware presets via MIDI! Going far beyond what's traditionally possible with plugging in a basic MIDI cable, Camelot's MIDI patch bay and router let you adjust hardware preset parameters via CC faders. MPE devices are not forgotten with Camelot Pro. Build up multi-part instruments for expressive and accurate tracking and performances. Each instrument configuration can be saved as a unique Smart Map, allowing you to have multiple different Smart Maps for the same instrument to have unique preset changes and more.

Supplement your performance with software effects and instruments

Give your audience what they want. Expand your tonal palette by introducing software effects and instruments to your performance. Camelot Pro allows you to host software on each scene, with AU and VST formats available on Windows and Mac systems. Not limited to desktop or laptop devices, iOS devices that can run AUV3 formats can also run software in your scenes. Ideal for musicians with a large repertoire of plug-ins that are essential to your sound design that can't be replicated in the analog domain, you can authentically create the sounds your audience has heard on your records now live on stage.

Follow along with sheet and scores

Don't worry about introducing new songs into your setlist that hasn't been rehearsed as thoroughly as others. Camelot Pro lets you attach a PNG, PDF or JPG file to read your chords, music scores or even lyrics during your performance. With multiple viewing options that scroll along with your Scene Timeline, you don't even need to take your hands off your instrument to change the page! For even more visual cues, Camelot Pro lets you include virtual sticky notes to your score, extremely handy for reminders and cues for certain sections or parts.
