Take full control of your live performances. Camelot Pro turns your iPad into the ultimate live stage workstation for hardware, software, and audio routing.
Camelot is an application created to address the most complex live performance needs with a simple and guided workflow. It combines in one app, a convenient and beautifully designed digital performance workstation that in the past could only be achieved with a complex setup made of connecting different applications and devices together.
Camelot is a Setlist Manager, a Software Instrument & FX Host, a PDF Music Score reader, a Multitrack Audio Player, and the most advanced Audio/MIDI Patchbay and Router. All in one piece of software:
● Hardware Instrument presets:
select your instrument Smart Map and go! With no MIDI knowledge!
● Software instruments and effects (AUv3)
Play with your favorite software sounds & FX (Auv3 format) and enjoy switching from one scene to another WITHOUT SOUND INTERRUPTION!
● MIDI Learn:
Quickly assign hardware controls to plugin parameters with an intuitive MIDI Learn workflow. Map knobs, faders, and pedals in seconds for full hands-on control.
● MIDI keyboards and MPE controllers:
connect any MIDI controller directly or with a USB hub;
● Advanced MIDI routing:
duplicate, filter, and route any MIDI messages with ease;
● Powerful MIDI Transformers:
Message Transformers convert CC messages from one number to another.
Trigger a chord by pressing one note
Remap/rescale any CC or velocity curve.
Easily play different scales or harmonize/shift parts;
● MIDI and Bluetooth remote controls:
Remote scene switching, start/stop buttons, or assign track levels to external pedals, faders, or controllers;
● Smart Scene Switching:
It’s a unique feature on iOS!!! There is no AUv3 host capable of switching sound with NO AUDIO INTERRUPTION and clever MIDI messages management, that does not truncate MIDI instances & routing. Stop using production tools for live performances!
● Tempo Sync with MIDI Clock and Ableton Link, with dedicated output for metronome (click)
● Lyrics and Chords attachments with custom annotations:
each Scene recalls PDF or images that you can visualize during the performance. The attached file can be saved at the desired zoom level and scroll position. Stop using paper chord, lyrics, or music score books!
● Audio backing tracks, Timeline & Automations:
attach Audio Tracks, add auto-play and auto-stop markers, and even add Scene automation. You can have multiple audio tracks with separate audio outputs and, at the same time, use the Timeline to automate Scene switches at specific points in the sequence;
● Audio Inputs and Routing:
Manage any audio input source: mic, guitar, bass, or hardware synth.
Add effects to any internal or external audio source in Camelot.
Endless audio routing options with dedicated audio send connectors;
● Manage your Performance with ease: Forget about the complications of last-minute Setlist changes. Rearrange, move and duplicate Songs with simple Drag & Drop directly on each Setlist.
How Camelot is organized:
● Setlists - a collection of Songs
● Songs - can have one or more Scenes that each include a Timeline. When you select a Song in Camelot, you load all the resources needed to play that Song (i.e., Virtual Instruments, FX, and Audio Tracks).
● Scenes - recall and organize Hardware instruments presets, MIDI connections, Software plugin presets, and Music Score Attachments. You can switch freely from one Scene to another with no interruption in the sound.
● Layers - the building blocks of each Scene. Layers allow the connection between MIDI Input Controllers and the Items. Layers manage the MIDI and Audio flow for all the Items that are loaded on them.
● Items - Individual Hardware or Software Instruments and FX.
Best Live Performance, MIDI organization, Layering, and cueing app EVER.

This app is a must if you’re syncing several bits of midi gear regardless of medium. It’s easy and fairly intuitive to learn. Everything you could possibly need for a midi performance is at your fingertips. The fact that the iOS app is every bit is usable as the desktop version is mind-boggling. I won’t ever play a set requiring complex midi queuing without it ever again. Even if your goal is simple VST stacking this thing is outrageous and the options almost seem limitless. I’ve purchased much of Audio Modeling’s instruments, and was a bit reluctant on this product initially, what a fool I was. After watching the initial review, I was convinced to purchase, after using it I’m indebted.
Many capabilities, hampering limitations

I had been performing using a combination of ForScore and AUM—as the former can send program changes to the latter. Then Camelot went on sale and I went for it. Its performance-oriented architecture allowed me to conceive of a more ambitious project than I could have carried off in the former set-up—so I thank the app for that. One limitation I encountered was external controllers having to operate at a global level. Camelot is organized into "scenes" which are made up of "layers", which are themselves comprised of "items." So when I set my expression pedal to control the level of layer 1, or, say, the level of layer 2, item 3, the pedal would continue to do so in every sequential scene. At first I thought of Stravinsky's concept of limitations being freeing for a composer, and so I created a spreadsheet to keep track of controller assignments—inserting empty filler layers to avoid the assigned layer or item affecting parameters I wanted left alone. Another limitation was lack of control over AUv3 parameters. You could tweak them in the interface but you could not assign external control over them unless the app had an internal midi learn feature. This meant having to abandon some favorite apps that didn't offer this. (I could not trigger a "freeze" in Magma with a sustain pedal, for example). Another limitation is poor tech support. When I pointed out an issue with controller curves not taking effect at the layer or item level, the tech person I was corresponding with ceased responding. All this is to say that if you can work OK within these limitations and somewhat archaic structure, the app is otherwise reliable and can produce amazing results. I, however, have moved on to Camelot's competitor, Keystage, which has a responsive developer who keeps the app vital.
Great app but audio input from Motu M4 is broken
papaskunk
This issue existed both before and after the recent update. When I create a new layer with a source of audio inputs from my Motu M4, it acts like it does not “hear” the input. The inputs are appropriately mapped to the interface’s inputs, and are not red (like when the device is unplugged), so it sees and knows about them. However, the triangle never flashes as I would expect it to when receiving input (this is the method I use to confirm it is receiving midi, but in that case, with midi inputs as the source, it’s a circle).I also know the interface is functional, because (a) I have level meters on the interface and (b) the identical configuration works in a competitor’s app I also own, so I know it is sending the audio over USB. My hardware synth has no onboard effects, so I need to route the audio through auv3s. I would love to have this fixed and get back to using Camelot as I prefer its UI, but there appears to be no way to get support for the iPad version, and I don’t have a desktop version.
Great app, with a lot of potential

I have used CamelotPro live half a dozen times so far and it has been very solid. The only issue I had was with a AUv3 plugin and the developer already had a workaround for the known issue. This is version 1.5 and a great app. I do look forward to all the upcoming features and add on modules. I also bought the Mac software for when I use Omnisphere live and Nord Stage 3. The iOS version works with my NordStage 3 and Korg. Great job and keep up the great work!It would be great if you integrated with Planning Center Online, so I could download the setlist for the week from church. Also, it would be great to show the entire song pdf, allow me to click on each section in the pdf to change between song sections.

- (iOS) Resolved an issue where scrolling stopped working after drag-and-drop reordering of Layers.
- Resolved audio glitches caused by using multiple MIDI Devices (Single Part)
- Resolved an issue where Sustain Pedal could remain active after changing Scenes, causing stuck notes.
- Resolved an issue where Timeline playback was blocked after loading an empty Song.
- UI: Resolved an issue where Post-Processor FX chain cables were not visible when extending beyond the viewport.
