Show Mode

A full-screen performance UI designed to be read under stage lighting and operated without looking at the screen.

The Layout

Song strip (top)

A horizontal row of small buttons, one per song in the active setlist. The current song is highlighted. Click any song to jump directly to it (fires section 0). On a tablet, this scrolls horizontally if your setlist is long.

Section tiles (main area)

Large tiles showing all sections for the currently active song. Each tile shows the section name and a colored pill for the assigned preset's color tag. Tap / click a tile to fire that section's preset.

The active section is highlighted. You can see at a glance what's playing and what's next.

Song info bar

Below the section tiles, the current song's BPM, key, and notes are shown as a quiet reference strip. BPM is shown large enough to read across a dark stage.

With a Bluetooth keyboard or a USB foot controller mapped to arrow keys, you can advance sections hands-free. Many guitarists tape a small BT keyboard to the floor near their pedalboard.

Fullscreen

Click ⛶ Fullscreen in the Show Mode header to go fullscreen. This hides the browser chrome and nav bar, giving you the maximum possible screen real estate for the tiles. Press Esc to exit.

On a tablet in landscape orientation with fullscreen active, RigWork looks and behaves like a dedicated hardware controller.

Panic

The ⊘ Panic button sends All Notes Off (CC 123, value 0) and All Sound Off (CC 121, value 0) on all 16 MIDI channels simultaneously. Use it if something gets stuck - a held note, a drone that won't stop, a frozen reverb tail.

Panic does not change your preset state. After hitting panic, the next section tap will re-fire the current preset and restore the correct tone.

Show Mode on Tablet

Rig is optimized for tablet use in Show Mode. A 10" or larger tablet in landscape gives you enough tile real estate to tap sections reliably mid-song. Recommended setup:
