StageDesk
Open a source, adapt it if needed, then convert it to the chosen destination.
StageDesk is a multi-format patch converter. It opens a console, software or table source, or resumes a StageDesk preparation / StageFlow project. After an optional edit, conversion follows the recognised capabilities of the destination: create a new project, create a snapshot or scene, or insert data into an existing project. Available labels, colours, icons and settings share one table; transfers remain explicitly triggered by the operator.
STANDALONEOn its own, StageDesk handles console-to-console, console-to-software and file-to-console conversion without retyping the patch.

In the field
Practical uses in the field.
Prepare one shared base in the common table, then create a new project, snapshot / scene or insertion in an existing project according to the capabilities actually available.
Connect to a StageFlow project and retrieve labels entered in the master session in real time.
How it works
Prepare, adjust, use.
Open the source
Open a file, table, StageDesk preparation or StageFlow project; for supported families, discover a console or read its Current state.
Modify (optional)
Review and adapt labels, colours, icons, DCA/VCA assignments, high-pass filters, mutes and faders according to the destination.
Convert
Create a new project, an available snapshot / scene, or insert into an existing project; the preview identifies what will be added, updated or kept.
Inside the software
Real screens. Concrete uses.
Enlarge ↗Conversion preview with fictional project and data: new project, snapshot / scene, or insertion into an existing project according to recognised capabilities.
Key features
What you can do.
01
Convert a complete patch between consoles and software without retyping compatible labels, colours, icons or settings.
02
Import supported projects, scenes, snapshots, sessions, tables and .stageflow projects.
03
Speed up preparation with copy and paste, batch actions and numbered or stereo series.
04
Convert labels, colours, icons, DCA/VCA assignments, high-pass filters, mutes and faders when supported.
05
Choose exactly which rows and parameter families are imported or exported.
06
Connect directly over LAN to Yamaha DM7, RIVAGE PM, CL/QL, TF and DM3, Allen & Heath dLive and Avantis, X32/M32 and WING through explicit discovery or manual IP.
07
Lawo: native .lpn productions and snapshots for mc²66 MKII 5.14, mc²36 MKII 32 faders, mc²56 MKIII and mc²96 12.4; copies, existing/new snapshots or new productions from your private seed.
08
Lawo 12.4: read and send Current labels through Ember+, with discovery or a configured IP and port, preflight, backup, confirmation and independent readback. No snapshot recall or store through this network connector.
09
Back up readable fields before sending and confirm changes; test the preparation in Simulation without contacting a console.
10
X32/M32: list scenes, recall one after explicit confirmation or store the entire Current mix in a freshly rechecked empty slot. Recall may change the whole mix.
11
CL / QL: when creating a scene, StageDesk updates Current first, then duplicates it; the previous scene remains preserved.
12
Reuse one preparation for several consoles and software instead of starting every conversion from scratch.
13
Voluntarily join a StageFlow session through network discovery or a manual address and six-digit code, then retrieve its labels in real time.
14
Disconnect from LIVE while keeping the working table; the operator remains in control of exports to consoles and software.
15
Keep preparation connected to StageFlow, Dante Config Editor and StageMark within the same show.
Ecosystem and compatibility
Tools, systems and formats that work together.
File and network capabilities are separate and model-dependent. Lawo is qualified on the four named mxGUI profiles, including native saves; Ember+ is limited to the three modern 12.4 profiles and Current labels. mc²66 5.14 remains file-only. Off-air qualification on physical consoles remains required. A&H reads back labels/colours only. Transfers are non-atomic and backups are not full shows. Except for X32/M32, saved scenes use native files.

Which data can you transfer?
Choose the exact model and format. Import and export mean reading and writing files, not remote control of the console. Native format support does not imply vendor certification or transfer of every setting.
StageDesk is available for Windows, Mac Intel and Apple Silicon. The table documents the Windows file workflows; where connector exposure in the public Mac package has not been confirmed, it is marked below. SSL requires Windows and the matching SOLSA runtime. Opening a file in an editor is not a test on a physical console.

Windows and macOS v2027.1.10 are the current releases. Apple Silicon and Intel macOS packages retain their own validation limits: Apple Silicon was launched from a read-only mounted DMG; Intel is statically qualified. Review the notes and associated guides before critical operation.
Installation, validation and limitations — StageDesk
Windows 2027.1.10 is the current public release. Four French and English Windows guides, release notes and the matching qualification are available with this delivery.
Three CL / QL file-conversion paths (new project, scene / snapshot and insertion) ran with cancellations, backup and readback; 707 profiles and 171 payloads were reread. This qualification does not validate a physical console, a live network, audio or Yamaha Editor. The three retained visual cases are French in the dark theme; other combinations are covered by automated checks.
macOS 2027.1.10 is available for Apple Silicon and Intel, with macOS 14 as the declared minimum. ARM was launched from the read-only mounted DMG (46.672 s, natural exit and detach); Intel is checked statically only, without an Intel machine. CI passed 1,259 Core and 934 Desktop tests, with no failures or skips; 41 synthetic renders cover 24 conversions and 8 contexts. This does not validate Developer ID/notarisation, a console, network, audio, personal installation or real adapter writes through the Mac UI. New permanent activation is not supported on Mac; free use with “Continue” remains available offline.
