Amazing! This is a great start to the StageLinq project.

When I first saw that, I was really looking forward to using Ableton link with my Maschine. That was until I saw that monthly cost.

Will there be another (free) way to use Ableton link? I don’t need all that lighting stuff…

It’s probably too soon to ask but as StageLinq is advertised for the MCX8000, there is only a mention of Prime.

I take it this also includes the MCX? I can see they would only concentrate on Prime in the promo video as its pro gear on a festival stage but would this also be available to our controller too?

It would be a good way of getting Ableton Link integration too.

I wonder how long someone creates a program that uses the Stagelinq port and converts it to Ableton Link without the rest of the extras like lighting etc. Nice and simple.

It might be worth dropping the Marq lighting links to StageLinq in here too Gee as it will keep things all nicely together in one thread.

Interesting video from a previous NAMM show highlighting the StageLinq protocol in action.

Having a small Ethernet to DMX dongle would be a great move. Actually moving in a SoundSwitch way would give mobile and small club DJs a fantastic head start in their shows.
