FEATURES

Over-the-Air Updates

• Added the ability to update Maestro from the web app.

• USB stick updates are still supported and may be necessary for network resets.

FX Palettes

• Customize fixture attributes for specific cues. For example, you can point all movers to a specific location for a given cue.

• Create various "snapshots," including static channel overrides, from the Controls page.

• The Controls page has moved to the top-level menu for easier access.

• Link snapshot attributes to similar attributes across fixtures.

• Attach snapshots to FX Palettes, which can be applied under specific conditions, such as triggers and audio events.

• Enable Gobo/Prism steps in a snapshot.

• FX Palettes stay synced across stages and shows.

OSC and MIDI

• Added support for OSC, expanding the system's control capabilities via network devices.

  • Link to TouchOSC patch

• Improved MIDI support (MIDI Spec)

• Added FX Palette selection to MIDI and OSC specifications

Improvements to Lighting Patterns and Palettes

• Added activity thresholds to Maestro patterns, so high-energy patterns only trigger at high activity levels.

• Expanded the upper edge of the activity range.

• Added individual channel palettes for Amber, UV, and White.

• Improved color palette display and naming.

• Moved "Allow Trigger" toggles to advanced parameters.

• Added motion to the "Still" pattern for aesthetics where lights should remain on but moving. To make them truly "Still," reduce motion width to zero.

Transport Controls Footer

• Transport/Playback controls have been moved to the bottom of the app, as requested.

Improved Syncing and Navigation

• Enhanced mechanisms to remember your position in the app, saving state when navigating between pages.

• Improved UI responsiveness for phones and tablets.

• Improved Error Pages in Web App

• Fixture Attribute Channel types are now searchable and categorized. You can jump between items using the first letter and navigate using the arrow keys.

Fixture Profiles Improvements

• All fixtures from the embedded fixture profile library, except for a few generic profiles, were removed. Please use our fixture website for up-to-date fixture profiles.

• Improved mode naming in profiles.

• Added a feature to update fixtures in the stage from updated profiles.

• Improved handling of duplicate modes

• Removed Manufacturer search bar from fixture profile webpage

SQUASHED BUGS

• Fixed an issue where inputting the mode name when adding a mode to a fixture profile didn't work correctly.

• Removed the option to delete built-in fixtures.

• Fixed the tertiary palette for the default "Under the Sea" cue.

• Gobo/Prism and color wheel steps are now ordered by DMX value.

• Addressed issues with color wheel blackouts.

• Blackout toggles were added to the "All Black" pattern.

• Fixed a bug where "blackout on silence" triggered blackouts even when not on silence.

• Improved transitions in PartyPattern during bass drops.

• Updated the 2D mapping layout for movers to use mover mapping instead of pixel mapping.

• Reduced visual jump artifacts when reordering cues.

• Dropdown menus now highlight and open to the selected row.

• Edits to override names/descriptions now persist after saving.

• Resolved an issue where fog speed sometimes stayed at its prior value after releasing the button.

• Fixed effects in PartyPattern not responding to the background.

• Added channel count to fixture profile requests to make it easier to identify profiles when adding fixtures to the stage.

KNOWN BUGS

• When connecting to Wi-Fi, you must refresh the page for the current state to update correctly.

• Triggers and FX Palettes do not work when the show is stopped or paused. This is currently by design and will require significant changes to address.

• Changing a snapshot attribute value back to the default keeps the value highlighted in blue.

• After a power cycle:

  • Network reverts to static IP from DHCP.

  • Audio device reverts to device #1.

• Text for palette groups cuts off palette names (e.g., "palette, palette...").

• Loading an older stage does not offer a fourth fixture group option.

• When changing parameters in Live Control, the Show badge incorrectly displays "Stopped" instead of "Live."

• After a factory reset, Maestro sometimes fails to send DMX data; a power cycle resolves this issue.

• In the solid color pattern, the color preview bar does not update when changing individual palettes.
