Stageplot Pro facts are based on its public product page and pricing page as checked July 22, 2026; early-access terms can change. load·in figures reflect the shipping app at time of publish.
The free products are not identical. Stageplot Pro currently provides more free document, cloud, sharing, branding, 3D, and AI-mix features. load·in provides free native X32/M32 workflows, mobile editing, RF and rider tools, with additional verified desk and DAW workflows in Pro.
* Strip is an in-app planning and editing view. X32/M32 has the broadest verified parameter write-back. Other desks expose only the fields identified in their export preview; dLive supports verified native import-and-export-back and selected field patches, not blanket X32-equivalent processing. Always verify a generated file in the official editor or target console before a show.
Preamp gain is never part of any translation, on any workflow — it always stays exactly as the engineer set it at the desk. Phantom power (48V) is written only when you switch it on or off yourself in the app, on desks where that's proven; a translation never moves it on its own. That's a safety decision: a shared or split preamp means a wrong gain is someone else's input, and phantom sent to the wrong place can damage a mic or DI.
Start free with X32/M32.
X32 and M32 native scene import and export cost nothing and need no account. Pro adds X-Air and the other supported desk and DAW workflows for a $99 one-time purchase with no recurring charge.
