Powerful Feature Set

Advanced Live Control

Multimedia Timeline

BEYOND’s Multimedia Timeline brings lasers, video, lighting, audio, and DMX under one roof. With an intuitive, drag-and-drop interface, you can build complex shows across multiple layers, synchronize effects down to the frame, and seamlessly integrate with other production elements.

Media Tracer

More than just a simple tracer... The Pangolin Media Tracer is packed tons of tools for the user to adjust the traced media and determine exactly what they want to create from the content with the provided tracing tools. Then convert those lines to points using the built-in point engine based on our 3D animation tools to get exactly the points you need.

Utilize BEYOND's powerful design engine directly from the lighting console of your choice with the DMX/ArtNET Server. This turns BEYOND into a media style server that you can control directly from any lighting console, offering far superior output and effect capabilities over direct console control.

Utilize BEYOND's native 3D preview engine (or connect third-party visualizers) to build your stage and orchestrate your laser show so that its perfect come show time.

Live Beat Detection

PangoBeats is a companion app for our BEYOND software that is used to detect the BPM of audio being played. This assists operators by taking the need to focus on BPM off the user and allowing content to automatically match the tempo of the played music. 

Scripting & UI Customization

Go beyond the default layout. PangoScript lets you script cues, schedules, and system actions, while Universe lets you build a tailored UI for triggering content live. Total control, configured your way.
