Can I use QLab with Stage Studio?

Short answer: Yes, you can keep using QLab. Stage Studio supports two-way OSC: QLab (or any OSC software) can trigger Stage Studio, and Stage Studio can send OSC messages to other software.

Applies to: Stage Studio beta on macOS and Windows · Last reviewed: October 17, 2026

How it works

  • QLab → Stage Studio: send OSC from QLab cues to control Stage Studio.
  • Stage Studio → QLab: Stage Studio can send OSC to QLab or other show-control software.

StagePlayer and QLab

StagePlayer's QLab export (a Professional License feature) works differently: it copies the scenery into a new QLab workspace. See Export your show to QLab.
