What is Go Button?

Go Button is a mobile audio app designed to provide professional playback of music and sound effects for live shows. It offers a creative, self-contained show control system that runs on iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. Live shows often require meticulous timing and consistency of music and sound cues, a task that traditional methods like CD players, iPods, or iTunes may struggle to handle effectively. Go Button addresses common technical challenges such as playing the wrong track at the wrong time, accidentally starting the next track too soon, inconsistent volume between tracks, and abrupt track endings when graceful fade-outs are needed

Highlights

  • Enables building an intelligent playlist of sound cues using your own audio tracks, with customizable playback settings for each cue
  • Supports advanced playback features not found in standard music players, including playing multiple sounds simultaneously, auto-stopping at the end of a track, fading sounds in and out, looping, and ducking the volume of other cues
  • Allows editing the settings of each cue individually, such as trimming out dead air or adjusting the volume level to ensure consistency across the show
  • Provides descriptive titles for cues instead of relying on memorizing track numbers, and an information panel on iPad to save and communicate detailed notes about the show
