Four tools,
one signal chain.
Native macOS tools for Syphon, NDI and SDI. Capture a window, map a wall, patch a matrix — on the Mac you already tour with.

Plugs into what you already run
The numbers that matter
How the chain runs
Get the picture off the Mac that has it
SpectraBridge publishes one window, one app or one display as a Syphon source. The rest of your desktop stays private.
Put it exactly where the pixels are
SpectraMap lays sources onto a canvas that matches the real wall, splits it across processors, and sends each segment out over NDI, Syphon or DeckLink SDI.
Route the rest of the rig
SpectraRoute is a crosspoint matrix for the Mac's audio and video devices — inputs down the side, outputs across the top, levels you can actually see.
And when the job is the screen itself
SpectraPhoto watches a hot folder and runs the room's slideshow — face-aware crops, music-timed transitions, event branding.
SB · Screen capture
One window on the wall.
Not your whole desktop.
Pick a window, an application, or a display. It shows up in Resolume, MadMapper, VDMX, TouchDesigner or OBS as an ordinary Syphon source — and nothing else on your Mac goes with it.
- Capture stays on the GPU — no round trip through system memory
- Notifications, the dock and stray Finder windows never reach the feed
- No virtual camera driver, no kernel extension, no restart
SM · Screen mapping
Pixel-exact on a wall
that came in panels.
Build a canvas that matches the real rig, place your sources on it numerically, split it across processors, and send each segment where it belongs.
- Canvases past 8192 px wide, because touring walls routinely are
- Split one canvas across two or more processors and route each half
- Out over NDI, Syphon and Blackmagic DeckLink SDI at once
SR · A/V routing
A patchbay for
everything the Mac hears.
Inputs down the side, outputs across the top, a dot where they meet. Levels you can actually read, and routes that survive a reboot.
- CoreAudio and CoreMediaIO devices in one crosspoint grid
- Per-channel metering, so you find the dead input before the show does
- Aggregate devices handled without the Audio MIDI Setup dance
SP · Live slideshows
The room's slideshow,
running itself.
Point it at the folder your photographer is shooting into. It crops for faces, times transitions to the music, and keeps going without anyone watching it.
- Hot-folder watch — new frames appear in the show as they land
- Face-aware cropping, so the couple is never cut in half
- Event branding and music-timed transitions built in
Why these and not the big suites
Native, not Electron
Swift and Metal against the frameworks Apple ships. Low latency, low CPU, and no browser engine idling in the background while you're live.
Focused, not a platform
Each tool does one job properly. No 400-page manual to get one window onto one wall.
It fits the rig you have
Syphon, NDI and DeckLink SDI in and out. Feed Resolume, MadMapper, VDMX, TouchDesigner or OBS — whatever is already on the truck.
Built against real shows
These started as tools we needed on our own jobs. Every feature is here because a show asked for it, not because a roadmap did.
Seven days, whole rig, no card.
Everything unlocked. When the trial ends a watermark appears — nothing stops working and no project is lost.
