MultiPlay
What it is
MultiPlay is a Windows program for cue playback in theatre and corporate settings. It handles audio files and playlists, images with transitions, and video, with cues that can run together or in sequence. A cue can also stop or fade another cue, or send serial or network strings, OSC commands, and MIDI commands to external equipment. Audio cues can be assigned to groups routed through stereo audio cards, while preview can use a separate stereo output. The program includes hotkey triggering, voice effects, and multiple soundboards. The listed plan is free for Windows 32-bit; video DLLs are offered as a separate download option. The maker describes version 3 as freeware for private or commercial use and invites donations. Its release post lists version 3.0.244.0. The maker recommends checking a release for suitability before using it in a live environment, and points users to the da-Share forum for feedback, bug reports, and feature suggestions.
