Resolume Arena/Avenue Setup

Supported Versions

CueSync supports Resolume Arena 7+ and Avenue 7+ via OSC. Resolume Wire is also supported for parameter automation.

Step 1: Enable OSC Input in Resolume

1. Open Resolume → Preferences → OSC.
2. Enable OSC Input.
3. Note the port number (default: 7000). You can change this if it conflicts with another application.
4. Optionally enable OSC Output if you want Resolume to send feedback to CueSync.

Step 2: Configure CueSync's OSC Output

1. Open CueSync → Protocols → OSC.
2. Click Add Target.
3. Enter your Mac's loopback IP (127.0.0.1) if Resolume is on the same machine, or the Resolume machine's IP if on a separate computer.
4. Set the port to match Resolume's OSC input port (e.g., 7000).
5. Enable the target and confirm the status indicator is green.

Step 3: Map Audio Triggers to Resolume Addresses

Resolume uses a standard OSC address scheme. Common mappings:

| Resolume Action | OSC Address Example | |----------------|-------------------| | Trigger clip in layer 1, column 3 | /composition/layers/1/clips/3/connect | | Layer 1 opacity | /composition/layers/1/video/opacity | | Effect parameter | /composition/layers/1/effects/1/parameters/1 | | BPM sync | /composition/tempocontroller/tempo |

In CueSync's Routing Editor, set the OSC address for each audio trigger rule.

Step 4: SMPTE Timecode for Timeline Sync

For frame-accurate timeline playback in Resolume:

1. In CueSync → Protocols → Timecode, enable SMPTE LTC Output on your audio interface's output channel.
2. Route that channel to Resolume's audio input (a loopback cable or virtual audio device).
3. In Resolume, enable LTC input in the timecode settings.
4. Resolume will now chase CueSync's timecode for frame-accurate clip playback.

Tips

• Use Beat-Reactive OSC for live DJ sets — no pre-programmed timeline needed
• Use SMPTE Timecode for corporate events or theatre with a fixed run order
• Enable Resolume's OSC output to monitor parameter values in CueSync's OSC console
