Sound Show is a soundboard and multimedia player for managing audio cues in live performances. It lets you layer or crossfade sounds and adjust each track’s volume and playback independently. You can project video, images, text, and webcam feeds to a second display, and program sequences with delays, automatic starts, simultaneous playback, or waits for input. Playlists can autoplay, shuffle, loop, and be saved or loaded. Listed sound formats include MP3, WAV, FLAC, MP2, WMA, OGG, and AIFF. The free edition allows up to 10 tabs and 40 sounds per tab, with limited visual customization, some locked modules, and a maximum of two audio outputs. Pro costs 45.00 EUR per once and allows unlimited tabs and sounds, custom grids, skins and icons, and up to eight audio outputs. It adds MIDI, Stream Deck, OBS, QLC+ lighting control, and Android remote integrations. The Android remote controls the desktop app when both devices use the same Wi-Fi network.
