I do lots of GNU/Linux based sound design for live theater and always build
custom patches in PD to handle the needs of specific performances. I've
written extensively about it:

So, I echo what several others have already said - PD is probably the most
flexible way to do this kind of work. Interfaces can easily be designed to
allow board operators to change various aspects of the show "on the fly"
including the adjustment cue pacing to better fit the on-stage action. What
would we do without it?!?

Hi there,
I'm looking for software for driving a sound system during a live
performance (of a play). All the sound is pre-recorded (no live
mikes) but it should be able to deal with multiple sound devices
(for different channels), and live mixing (e.g. backing music, then
sound effects over the top, cued manually). I can't find anything
that seems to fit this - am I going to have to write it myself?
Thanks,
Anthony
