Changelog

Trash. Deleted plots now go to the Trash for 30 days instead of disappearing for good. Undo right after a delete, or restore from the new Trash button in My Plots.

Realism: People. The roughest models in the catalog have been rebuilt at real-world dimensions, starting with new standing and seated figures, male and female, with Skin, Shirt and Hair colours in the Inspector.

Realism: Guitars & Amps. Telecaster, Les Paul, SG and ES-335, with carved tops, angled Gibson headstocks, inlays and individual saddles. The acoustic, djembe and Rhodes (a Mark I Stage 73 on its legs) are rebuilt too. Amps: Fender Twin and Deluxe Reverb, Vox AC30, Marshall JCM800 half and full stacks, Roland JC-120, and a Kemper Profiler Rack.

Realism: Keys & Controllers. Nord Stage 4, Nord Electro 6D, Yamaha CP88, Roland RD-2000 and Yamaha Montage on X stands. Key bass is now a Moog Sub Phatty. MIDI controllers get their own flyout: Novation Launchkey, Arturia KeyLab, NI Kontrol, Akai MPK Mini, Ableton Push 3, Akai APC40 MkII and MPC Live II.

Realism: Horns. Soprano, alto, tenor and baritone saxes, and a French horn, each on its stand.

Realism: PA. A realistic line array with an Inspector box count stepper (1–16) that hangs the array with a real J-curve. Also new: an 18" sub, a flown 3+1 cardioid sub cluster, and a touring sidefill stack.

Realism: Lighting and More. PAR64, Fresnel, Leko, both followspots, the lighting console, hazer, wedge monitor, stairs, chain motor and ENG camera are all rebuilt. Gels now tint the lens. Stage decks and risers now default to aluminium trim instead of green.

Faster Loading. Plots open faster and run smoother. 3D models now download only when a plot uses them, and the editor draws far less per frame.

Catalog. Wall: a freestanding 4×8 scenic flat for facades and for hiding backline. It takes a photo on its face, and its jack braces can be hidden from the Inspector. Also new: a concert barricade and an iPad on a stand. The Instruments menu is reorganized: Drums, Amps and Guitar are grouped, and Music Stand and Mic Stands move to Misc. Search still finds everything ("conga" finds Drums, "svt" finds Amps).

Console Scene Converter. All six directions between X32/M32, X Air/MR and Wing at /convert: X Air support is new, and Wing to X32 now works too. A loss report lists anything that couldn't carry across between desks.

Creator Bounty. Make a video about StageBuilder Pro and earn free Pro time. 1k views earns a month of Pro, and the rewards scale up to Lifetime at 50k views. Submit at stagebuilderpro.com/bounty.

A Converted Scene Lands Clean. Loading a converted show used to leave the rest of the desk holding the previous one — channels 17-32 still yesterday's band on an X32, and on a Wing even the EQ bands the source did not use kept the last gig's curve underneath the new one. Conversions now cover the whole channel layer, blanking what the show does not reach. Also fixed on the way through: stereo pairs arrived at the Wing hard left instead of centred, a bypassed high-pass lost the frequency you had dialled, and a low-cut EQ band reached the Wing as a bell at 0 dB — doing nothing at all.

Share Replaces Export. The biggest workflow change since the Tech Pack. Export is gone, replaced by one Share panel with two tabs — Document (the whole export UI: meta fields, page list, logo, live preview) and People (collaborators and the view-only editor link). Download PDF sits in the footer, and the panel now stays open after a download instead of closing on you.

Your Share Link Is the Rider. Publishing builds the PDF, uploads it, and hands you a link. Edit the plot and the link a venue already has updates in place — same URL, new document. It renders inline on phones instead of showing page one and stopping, and it works on locked-down guest wifi. A revoked link now says so, rather than offering a download that fails.

A Real Social Card. Paste a share link into Slack, iMessage, or socials and you get a branded card with your plot name and your own overhead render on the top sheet — not a raw, oddly-cropped screenshot whose shape changed with every plot.

Reorderable Export Pages. Every page is listed separately — Overhead, 3D, Input List, Output List, Bill of Materials, and each custom Tech Pack page. Drag to reorder; the order drives both the preview and the PDF. An eyeball toggles any page off.

Stage Directions on Plot Pages. UPSTAGE / DOWNSTAGE / AUDIENCE / STAGE LEFT / STAGE RIGHT now ring the Overhead and Tech pages, the way a printed stage plot is expected to read — and they follow the plot when a landscape plot rotates onto a portrait page. Plots also get proper margins instead of running flush to the page edge.

Bill of Materials Is Opt-In. The BOM is a gear count for the production side, not something most riders want stapled on, so it no longer ships by default — still one click to include. Also fixed: odd channel numbers were invisible in the Input List preview, and rider header fields could leak between plots.

Console Scene Converter. A new free tool at /convert turns an X32/M32 .scn into a Behringer Wing snapshot, in the browser. Channel names, perceptually-matched strip colours (the two palettes are unrelated — passing the index straight through turns green into blue), stereo-linked pairs collapsed, DCA and mute groups, EQ bands, and the real input patch read off the routing blocks so AES50 stageboxes land where they actually are.

Export Console Scene from the Input List. Push your channel list straight to the desk: X32/M32 .scn with names, nearest-match strip colours and +48V on phantom-flagged channels; a name CSV for A&H dLive / Avantis / SQ; and Wing.

LTC Timecode Generator. Another free tool, at /timecode-generator. Pick a frame rate and a start time, download a SMPTE LTC WAV — or a numbered batch as a zip with timecode running continuously across the whole set. Durations snap to whole frames, so no two files ever open on the same label.

Custom Models — Elite. Upload your own .glb gear and drag it in like any catalog item, from a new always-visible Custom library category. The upload dialog previews your model against a 5'11" figure with aspect-locked sizing and Z-up / yaw fixes before anything is stored. 25 models, 250 MB total, 20 MB per file. Uploading is gated; rendering never is — collaborators, share links, and downgraded accounts all still see the real model.

Keyboard-Driven Library. Press L to open the item library with the search focused — the + button is now a labelled Library pill. Arrows walk the categories, Enter opens one, arrowing onto a variant flies its menu out, Right/Enter steps in and Left/Esc steps back. Place a whole rig without reaching for the mouse.

Manage Shares from My Plots. Leave a shared plot — previously there was no way off a plot someone had added you to. Expand an owned shared plot to see everyone on it and remove people without opening it. Badges now spell out "Shared · editor" or "Shared · viewer" so you know which side of the share you're on.

Invites Always Email. An invite sent to someone who already had an account used to grant access silently and send nothing — the one person who could act on it was the only one never told. Everyone gets the email now.

Starting a Collaboration Is Elite, Joining Is Free. Invites and share links are an Elite feature; taking part in one you were invited to works on any plan, so an Elite owner's crew never needs to pay to be on the plot.

Save Conflict Guard for Editors. The stale-write check only covered plot owners — the one branch least likely to race. An editor, who by definition has someone else in the document, could overwrite a collaborator's newer save with no warning to either party. Both paths are covered now.

Centerline Guides. Cyan guides light up when an item lands on the stage centerline, hold briefly after the drop, then fade. Items were always pulled toward center — now you can see it happen instead of guessing.

Bounded Play Area. Placement and 2D zoom-out are clamped to the grid you can actually see, and the boundary resizes with the stage. This also fixes a reported bug where a default stage deck could silently collapse the play area — decks wouldn't drag past an invisible square and Overhead refused to zoom back out. Flown items no longer fall to the floor on restack, either.

Tech View Dimension Tool. Auto-placed dimension lines are replaced by a crosshair click-drag draw mode that snaps to horizontal, vertical, 45°, and the half-foot grid, with full support for diagonal rulers. Dragging a ruler is now smooth — it repaints only the overlay instead of re-rendering the whole 3D scene every frame.

Label Text Sizing. A point-based stepper up to 200pt replaces the four fixed presets.

Consistent Snap. Drag snap is a steady 0.5 of whatever unit you're working in and follows the ft/m toggle, which has moved below the stage dimensions in the New Plot dialog.

New Catalog Items. Ukulele, Banjo, Accordion, Tabla, Tambourine, Sousaphone, Kick Drum, and Floor Tom join the Instruments tree, plus a Drum Kit (1 down) — a four-piece with no rack tom. Also new: a Cable Ramp, and a 10×10 Canopy Tent that sits over your gear rather than stacking on top of it.

Mic Stands Generate Input Channels. Placing eight vocal mics used to produce an empty input list. Each stand now carries a Vocal / SM58 channel with the stand type — Tall Boom, Short Boom, Straight, Straight (Round Base) — written into its notes, and your Mic Defaults still apply. Stands already on a saved plot aren't backfilled; re-place them, or toggle "Add to Input List" off and on.

Input / Output List & Tech Pack. Custom columns can now be deleted from the Columns dropdown. Each Tech Pack tab gets an "Include in Tech Pack" toggle, BOM rows get a delete X, multi-select uses a subtler highlight, Sample Pad is now Drum Sample Pad with channel names to match, and the 2D view is called Overhead (was "Classic").

AI Builder. New setup macros, quantity multipliers, and a much broader vocabulary.

Speed & Polish. Significant optimizations for speed, performance, and stability throughout the app and the site.

Tech Pack. The biggest workflow change since v2.0. Input List, Output List, and Bill of Materials are now tabs in a single Tech Pack modal — the separate menu items are gone. Switch between paperwork without save-and-reopen ceremony.

Rich-Text Pages. A + tab adds custom pages for FOH/MON Notes, Hospitality Riders, Other Rider info, Set Lists, day sheets — anything you'd hand to a venue. Inline-renamable titles, hover-X delete, persisted with the plot, shared with collaborators.

Full Formatting Toolbar. Bold, italic, underline, bulleted and numbered lists, left/center/right/justify alignment, and a Small/Normal/Large/Huge font-size dropdown. Everything you need for a pro-looking rider.

One-Click Tech Pack Export. The Export modal's three separate checkboxes for Inputs/Outputs/BOM are replaced by a single Tech Pack row showing the total page count. Empty tabs auto-skip so unused sections never generate phantom pages. Rich-text pages render with proper page breaks, formatted lists, and inline bold/italic/underline.

Middle Eastern Subgroup. New Instruments subgroup with GLB models for Oud, Saz, Ney, and Darbuka.

More Instruments. Conga and Keytar arrive as GLB models. Marimba, Xylophone, and Vibraphone redrawn with realistic dimensions and silhouettes.

People — Female Variant. New variant in the People group plus a realism pass on existing models — flat-shaded heads and a hair color picker.

Pipe Horizontal / Vertical. Fixtures now attach to pipes the same way they attach to trusses — for venues with pipe grids instead of box truss.

Truss Attachments Expanded. LED walls, backdrops, and curtains can now hang from truss alongside fixtures and line arrays.

Junction Block — Free Placement. Junction blocks can sit off-truss on the floor, and dragging one stays on the floor instead of disappearing into the air. Anchored trusses are also skipped during restack — no more dropped truss systems when nearby items move.

I/O List — Shift-Click Bulk Edit. Shift-click to range-select rows and edit them together. BOM formatting was brought to parity with the I/O list.

Truss Junction Block. Brand-new connection primitive — a 6-way welded aluminum cube of pipes with X-bracing, modeled after a real F34/F44 junction. Lives inside the Truss flyout. Snaps onto any truss, slides along its axis, and acts as a universal node for building corners, T-junctions, goalposts, and grids.

Trusses Redesigned. Horizontal and vertical trusses now render as proper 4-rail box truss with cylindrical chords, square end frames, and solid X-bracing on all four faces — matching the visual language of the junction block. Cross-section is sized so a junction block fits cleanly around the truss with even clearance.

Endpoint Anchoring. Truss segments now have End A / End B connection slots. Anchor an endpoint to a junction block and that endpoint follows the block in real time. Build goalposts, rectangular grids, and custom shapes that move as a single rigid linkage.

Auto-Bridging Trusses. When both ends of a truss are anchored to junction blocks, the truss auto-recomputes its position, length, and rotation every frame to bridge the two blocks. Move one corner of a grid and the connecting members stretch and rotate to match.

Reattach Button. Selecting a junction block reveals a "Reattach…" button in the Inspector — click it, then click anywhere on a target truss, and the block flies to that exact point. No more fiddly drags onto trusses high in the air.

Generous Snap Radius. Truss endpoints now click onto junction blocks from up to 0.2 ft past the block face (2.4× the previous radius). Cascade moves: dragging a truss pulls all attached junction blocks and their downstream trusses as one unit.

Auto-Detach Safety. If a parent truss moves far enough that an anchored endpoint drifts out of range, the connection clears automatically. Cycle protection prevents you from accidentally wiring a junction block to a truss that's already anchored to it.

Bill of Materials. A full BOM is now generated automatically from your stage plot. Access it from the Menu — items are grouped by type with quantities and editable notes. Filter by department, export to CSV, or include a BOM page in your PDF export.

BOM Department Filters. Toggle departments on or off in the BOM modal with a single click. Audio and Instruments are off by default; your filter preference is remembered between sessions.

Per-Item BOM Control. Each item has an "Include in BOM" checkbox in the Inspector for fine-grained overrides on top of the department defaults.

Updated Physics Engine. Surfaces now carry their contents when moved. Stage decks, risers, and rugs drag everything stacked on top of them — including multi-level stacks. Rugs carry instruments, audio, lighting, and misc items but leave staging structures in place.

Stacking Stability Fix. Moving a surface with items on top no longer causes objects to shoot vertically into the air. Carried items are now correctly excluded from the stacking raycast during drag.

Catalog Reorganization. All mic stands, music stands, guitar stands, guitar boats, drum thrones, piano benches, drum shields, and cymbal shields have moved from Misc into the Instruments category where they belong.

AI Builder Overhaul. The AI stage plot builder has been completely rewritten. Describe your stage in plain English and it builds itself accurately.

Station-Aware Placement. The AI builder now understands stations as groups of items at a position. "Drum kit upstage center with rug on riser" places everything together as a unit.

Accurate Stage Positions. Upstage, downstage, stage left/right, and new positions like "upstage center" and "downstage center" all place items where you'd expect them.

Meta-Instructions. Say "vocals at all stations" or "monitors everywhere" to copy items to every station in one phrase.

Drum Kit Variants. Specify "drum kit 2 up 2 down" or "1 up 2 down" and the AI places the correct variant. Parentheses like "(2 up 2 down)" work too.

Smarter Synonyms. "Keyboard" and "keys" now place a single keyboard. "Keyboard rig" gives you the 2-tier setup. "Amp modeler", "bass amp", "pedalboard", "person", "people", and dozens more now recognized.

Intelligent Layout. Primary instruments (drums, keys, modelers) go at the front of the station. Amps go behind. Mics go in front of the musician. People auto-sit at drum kits.

Position-Word Safety. Words like "stage" in "stage right" no longer accidentally spawn stage deck items. Filler words like "single" and "large" are stripped cleanly.

Plot Persistence Fix. Plots no longer disappear after signing in. Local plots automatically sync to your cloud account. Autosave no longer silently fails during animated loading.

Kick Drum Logo Fix. Uploading an image to the kick drum head no longer hides the rest of the drum kit.

Locked Item Hover. Position-locked items no longer highlight on mouseover, making them feel properly inert.

Feedback Button. Quick-access feedback button added to the desktop toolbar.

Front/Center Fill. New Audio item — compact horizontal speaker that can be placed on stage or hung from truss.

CDJ. New Instrument with two variants: 1 Deck (single CDJ with jog wheel and screen) and 2 Decks (two CDJs flanking a DJM mixer).

Sub. Renamed from "Subwoofer Stack" and simplified to a single cubic block model.

Acoustic Guitar. Updated to more realistic model.

I/O List Templates. Save and load I/O list templates. Loading a template overwrites the current list but remains fully editable.

I/O List Dropdowns. Type, Stand, and Stage Position columns are now dropdowns with standard options. Column visibility can be toggled, and custom columns can be added.

Mic Defaults. New Account setting — set preferred default mics for common instruments. Defaults auto-fill when instruments are added to the I/O list.

Table Stacking Fix. Fixed issue where placing an item at the center of a table would push the table into the air.

Curtain. New Staging item with wavy fabric geometry — waves increase automatically as the curtain is made wider, with a top pipe/batten.

Ramp. New Staging item — wedge shape that snaps to stage deck edges and automatically adjusts height to match the platform.

Camera. New Video item — broadcast camera on tripod with dolly base, fluid head, lens hood, viewfinder, and shotgun mic.

Half Circle Stage Deck. New stage deck variant — 180° arc shape with independently adjustable width and depth.

Truss Face Mounting. Fixtures can now mount on any of 4 truss faces. Press F to cycle between Bottom, Back, Top, and Front (or Front, Right, Back, Left on vertical truss). Also available as a dropdown in the Inspector.

Line Arrays on Truss. Line arrays can now be attached to truss via the "Attach to Truss" button, just like lighting fixtures.

Improved Truss Workflow. Fixtures attach to truss via the Attach button (no more accidental auto-snap). Dragging a hung fixture slides it along the truss. Detaching drops the fixture to the nearest surface with a fall animation.

Bar Fixture Orientation. Impression Bars and LED Battens now orient vertically when mounted on vertical truss, and mount from their bottom on horizontal truss.

New Drum Kit Configurations (Finally!). Four variants under a new "Drums" parent: 1 up, 1 down (classic 4-piece), 1 up, 2 down, 2 up, 1 down, and 2 up, 2 down — with properly sized and positioned toms for each configuration.

Skateboard. New Misc item with procedural geometry — rounded deck with kicktail ends, trucks, and wheels.

Amp Modeler (Rack). New Instruments item.

Favorites. Heart toggle in the Inspector to favorite any item. Favorites section always visible at the bottom of the Library sidebar for quick access.

ft/m Unit Switching. Toggle between feet and meters in the New Plot dialog, toolbar, schematic/tech view, and PDF export.

Labels. Adjustable width with hover and selection highlighting.

Light fixture truss flip. Fixtures now automatically rotate so their bottom faces the truss when attached (horizontal and vertical).

I/O list bug fix. Adding new items after the first save now correctly merges into the input list instead of showing stale data.

Flyout menu hover fix. Sidebar variant menus no longer disappear unexpectedly.

19 new production objects (148 total). Flute, Clarinet, Oboe, Bassoon, French Horn, Tuba, Gong, Xylophone, Vibraphone, Concert Toms, Concert Bass Drum, Tubular Bells, Trumpet (procedural), Trombone, Saxophone, Marshall Full Stack, PA (on Stand), Podium, and Turntables (renamed from DJ Booth).

Sidebar flyout menus. Instruments reorganized into nested flyout groups — Bass, Guitar, Keys, Horns, Percussion, and Orchestral. Orchestral features nested sub-flyouts for Strings, Horns, Woodwinds, and Percussion.

Lock bug fix. Locked items can now be selected (for unlocking via the inspector) while still preventing move-drag.

Easier clicking on mallet instruments. Marimba, Xylophone, Vibraphone, and Tubular Bells now have filled hit surfaces covering their full footprint.

Custom dimension lines in Tech view. Add, drag, select, and delete measurement lines via the new "+" button. Lines snap to a 0.5ft grid and nodes clamp to the visible frame.

Lightning bolt on power drops. Power drops now display a floating yellow lightning bolt — billboards in 3D, flat icon in Overhead and Tech views.

DI box redesign. DI boxes are larger and now show a "DI" label for easy identification on the plot.

Drop animation on load. Items cascade into place with a satisfying drop animation when plots load — surfaces land first, speed scales with item count.

In-app plan management. View, upgrade, downgrade, or cancel your plan without leaving the app. Billing & invoices link for Stripe portal access.

Performance improvements. Fixed 3 GPU memory leaks, added frustum culling in 2D, render-on-demand, material caching, and eliminated Overhead view lag.

Locked items no longer block pan. Locked items like stage decks no longer highlight or intercept clicks, so Cmd-drag panning works everywhere.

Tech view polish. Sidebar, inspector, and library are now hidden in Tech view. Dark items (mic stands, stairs, laptops) lightened for grayscale visibility. Zoom slider removed.

Venue Directory (Elite). Browse 94 real-world venues — arenas, theaters, clubs, amphitheaters, stadiums, and festival grounds — when creating a new plot. Search by name or city, filter by region and type, and create a plot with accurate stage dimensions in one click.

Wired/Wireless mic stands. All mic stands now render XLR cables from the mic down to a floor coil. A new "Wired" toggle in the Inspector lets you show or hide the cable per stand.

Mic stand improvements. Tall Boom variant flyout now reads Straight / Left / Right. Straight Round Base reoriented to face audience, all-black finish, corrected height, visible grille.

Light / Dark mode. New sun/moon toggle in the bottom-right controls switches between dark and light canvas backgrounds with a smooth animated transition.

Stage Deck skirt. The Skirt checkbox is now available for Stage Decks in the Inspector, previously only for risers.

Auto-seat system. Dragging a Person near a Chair or Stool automatically converts to a seated pose with a live ghost preview. Moving them away reverts to standing.

New items & variants. Chair model. Stage Deck 4x4 and Triangle variants. Mic Stand Boom Left and Right variants. Orchestral instruments: Timpani, Concert Bass Drum, Tubular Bells.

Label formatting. Text labels now support font size (Small / Medium / Large / X-Large), bold, italic, and underline via the inspector panel.

Simplified People. Male and Female variants consolidated into a single gender-neutral Person model.

Bug fixes. I/O List PDF export now shows sequential CH numbers after reorder. GLB models (guitars, keyboards) now selectable after async load. Chairs and stools no longer act as stacking surfaces. Triangle deck surface aligned with frame.

Real-time collaboration. Share your stage plot with collaborators. Editors can make changes that sync live; viewers see updates in real time. Presence avatars show who's online.

View Mode badge. Viewers see a "View Mode" indicator next to the account menu with an "Upgrade to Edit" tooltip.

New lighting models. Moving Head completely rebuilt (Claypaky/Elation style with chunky base, thick yoke, tilted head with lens bezel). Impression Bar replaces Moving Bar/Strip (GLP-style LED trough with 20 cells and end caps).

New instrument models. Standalone Laptop model. Fog machine redesigned to match Chauvet Hurricane 1000. People and table models updated with black surfaces.

Auth & sharing fixes. Share link tokens now persist through email confirmation flow. Demo plot loads after signup instead of blank screen. Fixed auth modal auto-closing after failed sign-in.

Bug fixes. Fixed road cases floating near barricades (stacking heuristic). Fixed truss-mounted fixtures floating above truss line. Fixed bass drum head clipping. Removed number input spin buttons. Snap distance reduced to 0.5ft.

Drum kit rewrite. Completely rebuilt drum kit with realistic Ludwig-style shells, chrome lugs, hoops, spurs, and coated white heads. Kick drum now supports custom logo upload (PNG with transparency).

New 3D models. Pedalboard (flight case with 9 pedals), Hammond B3 organ (dual manuals, drawbars, turned legs, bench), drum throne (chrome tripod), and barricade (vertical bars with flat feet).

Option+drag to duplicate. Hold Option (Alt) while dragging any item to create a copy in place and drag the original to a new position.

I/O List row selection. Click, Shift+click, or Cmd+click to select rows. Drag multiple selected rows to reorder them, or use the Duplicate button to copy them.

More I/O List colors. Three new row colors (orange, pink, cyan) and all color backgrounds are now translucent so labels stay readable.

Riser skirts. Risers now have a "Skirt" checkbox in the inspector that adds black drape panels from the deck edge to the floor.

Rotation buttons. Clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation buttons flanking the rotation field in the inspector for quick 45-degree turns.

Direction labels moved inside stage. Stage direction labels (US/DS/SL/SR) now render inside the stage border so they don't overlap dimension lines.

Backdrop photo upload. Upload a custom photo to any Backdrop / Drape item and it renders directly on the mesh. Compressed and saved with your plot — persists through resizes, page reloads, and cloud saves.

Share links. Generate a view-only link for any plot — anyone with the URL can view it without an account. Share-link visitors see a "View Only" badge and cannot edit or save.

Real-time collaboration. Invite collaborators by email and edit the same plot simultaneously. Changes sync live — no refresh needed.

Invite emails. Collaborator invites send a branded email with a one-click Accept button. Recipients without an account are prompted to sign up first.

Marquee selection. Click-drag on empty canvas to draw a selection rectangle and select multiple items at once.

Camera floor constraint. The 3D camera can no longer be dragged or panned below the stage floor.

Upright bass. Double bass added to the instruments catalog with a detailed 3D model — body bouts, waist, f-holes, fingerboard, bridge, strings, and endpin.

Guitar boat. Multi-guitar storage stand added to the Misc catalog for setlists that require multiple axes.

Pedal steel guitar. Fender double-neck style pedal steel added to the instruments catalog with chrome legs, tuning machines, and vertical pedal rods.

Mixing Console road case. Touring road case model (Midas M32-style) added to the Misc catalog. Monitor Console renamed to Mixing Console.

Mic Stand (Short Boom). Low-profile boom stand for kick drum and guitar amp positions. The original mic stand is now labeled Tall Boom for clarity.

Text label annotations. New Labels category — place freeform text signs anywhere on your plot. Supports multi-line text, custom background color, and full rotation.

I/O List: Carried & Phantom. Each input list row now has checkboxes for Carried (artist supplies their own mic or DI) and Phantom Power (48V required).

I/O List row colors. Color-code any row in the Input or Output List to visually group channels — FOH, stems, IEM mixes, whatever you need.

Riser physics. Items placed on a platform, riser, or stage deck now travel with it when you drag it. No more re-stacking after repositioning a drum riser.

Add to Input List toggle. Instrument items now have an "Add to Input List" toggle in the inspector. Uncheck it to exclude an item from the auto-generated channel list.

Forgot password flow. You can now reset your password from any sign-in screen. Enter your email, get a link, set a new password — all without leaving the browser.

Tech view. A new clean, top-down technical drawing view — white background, labeled boxes, scale bar, stage directions. Great for printing and rider attachments.

Improved Overhead export. The Overhead (3D) export now captures the scene with full lighting and a clean white background, matching what you see in the app.

Toolbar Menu. New Plot, I/O List, Export, Share, and Feedback are now grouped under a single Menu button, keeping the toolbar clean.

Animated onboarding demo. New users are welcomed with a live animated walkthrough that builds a stage plot in real time, so you know exactly what you can do before you start.

Demo template. The app now opens with a pre-built 3-piece band setup (drums, keys, guitar, bass, FOH, monitors, lighting) on a 60×40 festival stage to give you a head start.

Smarter item placement. Clicking an item in the library now drops it where you're looking in the scene, not just at stage center.

Updated audio catalog. Line array updated to a 12-cabinet hang, stagebox redesigned with top-mounted ports, and a new power drop accessory added.

Export layer filters. Choose exactly which departments to include in your export — audio only, full production, whatever your rider needs.

3D guitar models. Electric guitars now render as detailed 3D models — Stratocaster, Telecaster, and Les Paul variants, each with an A-frame stand.

3D bass guitar. Bass guitar is now a full 3D model with a realistic A-frame stand.

3D keyboard rig. Keyboard and piano rigs now render as detailed 3D models.

Amp modeler / pedal model. Added a dedicated amp modeler item for modern pedalboard-based rigs.

Playback Rig. New instrument item for click track and playback setups.

AI Builder improvements. Items now drop onto the stage one at a time with a stagger animation, and stage surfaces (decks, risers) are always placed first.

I/O List persistence. Your input and output list channel assignments are now saved and restored with your plot.

Drum kit redesign. Completely remodeled drum kit with more accurate proportions.

Wedge monitor redesign. Wedge monitors now have a more realistic sloped wedge shape.

Lock toggle. Items can now be locked in the inspector so they can't be accidentally moved or deleted.

Mic stands. Mic stand items added to the catalog.

Stage rugs. Rugs now stack properly on raised platforms and stage decks.

Sign in with Google. You can now create an account and sign in using your Google account.

AI Builder open to everyone. The AI stage plot builder is now free for all users — no subscription required.

I/O List drag-to-reorder. Drag channels up and down in the input and output list to reorder them.

Metric units. Toggle between feet and metres from the toolbar.

Black & white export. Export your stage plot in grayscale — ideal for printed riders.

Rebranded to StageBuilder Pro. Formerly Atlas Stage.

Floating library panel. The item library is now a collapsible floating panel, giving you more canvas space when you don't need it.

Camera zoom & pan sliders. Smooth animated sliders for camera zoom and pan, in addition to mouse/trackpad controls.

Human figures. Performer and crew human figures added to the catalog to give your plot a sense of scale.

Export modal with view selector. The export modal now shows a large preview and lets you choose which view to export — 3D, top-down, front, stage left, or stage right.

Infinite grid floor. The stage floor now extends infinitely with a sleek dark grid aesthetic.

Help modal. A built-in help reference for keyboard shortcuts and controls.

Audio fixtures mount to truss. Audio items (line arrays, delays) now snap to and hang from truss elements.

10 new lighting fixtures. Expanded lighting catalog with 10 additional fixture types.

Autosave. Your work is automatically saved as you go — no manual save required.

My Plots. View, open, and manage all your saved stage plots from one place.

Input / Output List. A dedicated I/O list modal for documenting your channel assignments alongside the stage plot.

Cloud save. Stage plots are now saved to your account and accessible from any device.

Account system. Sign up for a free account. Your avatar and account details live in a dropdown in the top right.

Feedback & bug reports. Submit feedback or report a bug directly from inside the app.

Slide-in inspector panel. Selecting an item opens a clean slide-in panel to edit its label, color, position, and notes.

Initial launch. StageBuilder Pro (then Atlas Stage) launched with 3D and 2D plan views, a full production catalog across audio, lighting, video, staging, and instruments, grid snap, undo/redo, and PNG/PDF export.
