After two years in development, we are nearing the beta test phase for the Stage Manager Simulator. The past few weeks have been very exciting as Digia has issued the final release of Qt 5.0, which serves as the nervous system of our simulator. And while we were waiting on Qt to transfer from Nokia to Digia, the good folk at Carnegie Mellon have released their own update to the voice recognition component! So while we have been fine-tuning local versions of the software, we can now move to an open beta test of the simulator.
Our big unveiling of the Stage Manager Simulator will be at the USITT Stage Expo in Milwaukee, March 21-23.
We are proud to partner with InterAmerica Stage, Inc., who are providing two demo booths featuring their sound-dampening acoustic panels (IAS-25AV2). You won't need a sound booth to run the simulator in your classrooms and offices (a simple noise-cancelling microphone on a headset will do the trick), these booths will allow us to block out the background trade show noise and distractions.
When you stop by our USITT booth, you will be able to test the simulator on either a Mac or a PC. Conference attendees will also be able to sign up for a download code to test the simulator at home for free. If you cannot attend USITT this year, you will be able to request an invite to the beta the following week - we will be tracking how our bandwidth responds to multiple users downloading the software and the modules simultaneously.
We would like to thank everyone for the tremendous level of support over the past two years as we have been building and rebuilding a simulator that would make a stage manager proud!
