Welcome to GigPerformer — the world’s most versatile plugin host application for live performance. GigPerformer lets you take complete control of your entire rig and provides instant access to all of your instrument and effects plugins — no DAW software necessary.

Whether you’re a keyboard player, a guitarist, a vocalist, a drummer, or a live sound engineer, Gig Performer has much to offer:

Keyboardists can control all their software synths, samplers, and sequencers—as well as effects—directly from the sliders, knobs and switches on their instruments.

Using their MIDI pedalboards, guitarists can freely switch between multiple amp/cabinet models and digital effects in real time without any audio glitching.

Singers can easily add compression, EQ and other desired effects to their vocals.

Setlists let you effortlessly change sounds and entire plugin setups for every part of every song of every gig.

Live sound engineers can use Gig Performer to intercept audio coming from the FOH or monitor system, add desired effects processing, and then send the results directly back to the mixing board. Gig Performer can simultaneously record multichannel audio from the mixing board for later processing and mixing in your favorite DAW.

You can even run multiple Gig Performer instances simultaneously, allowing different members of a band to access different plugin setups independently!

Gig Performer’s intuitive interface makes it remarkably fast to start with, and easy to use. Beneath the surface, however, are many advanced features, which we will cover in the pages of this User Guide. The User Guide is basically divided into two sections: a series of Tutorials to familiarize you with basic operation, and a Reference section that documents all of the details.
