The Drama Queens

The main entry point to Scenes is a list that displays all the scenes that you've created. OnSong comes preloaded with two scenes:

  • Blackout is a scene that fades all lights to off. Riveting stuff. Perfect for when you need to turn lights off (shocking, we know).
  • Lights Up is a scene that turns all lights connected to OnSong to a warm white light. Groundbreaking technology, truly.

Edit Mode

Tap on the Edit button to place the scenes list into edit mode. Yeah, we know, super intuitive. Now you can reorder & delete scenes like you actually know what you're doing.

Editing Scenes

Each scene is listed next to a preview of the scene. Tapping on the preview will animate the preview (wild, right?). Tapping on a scene in the list will open the Scene Editor. One exception to this is if you have the Play scenes when tapped switch turned on at the bottom. In that case, tapping on the scene will play the scene. You'll need to tap on an info button to edit the scene, or use the context menu. It's not rocket science, peeps.

Context Menu

You can perform additional actions on scenes by tapping & holding (iOS/iPadOS) or right-clicking (macOS) on the scene to display the context menu. Revolutionary stuff.

Adding Scenes

Tap on the + button on the bottom right corner to add a new scene. ZOMG, a plus button. Who would've thought.

Lighting Console

The lighting console button is located in the lower right corner adjacent to the + button. Tapping this will open the Lighting Console to allow for fast, console-based control over all lights & fixtures registered with OnSong. Finally, you can pretend you're a real lighting tech.

Panic Button

The red octagonal button at the bottom is used in the event that connected lighting is having issues. Tapping on the panic button will stop all scenes & sequences & zero out all signals, effectively blacking out lights. It's your get-out-of-jail-free card when everything goes sideways (which it will).
