Everything you need on the gig
Built by electricians, for electricians. Every feature exists because someone needed it on a real show.
Instrument Worksheet
Fast, sortable table with 40+ fields per fixture. Multi-select, bulk fill, auto-increment, undo/redo, and per-column filtering.
VectorWorks Live Sync
Bidirectional delta-patch sync using native SLData XML. Changes in VW appear in 2 seconds. BeamSync writes back on 100ms debounce without touching VW-internal data.
Cloud Collaboration
Shows auto-backup to the cloud on every save. Share with crew, submit field-level change requests, and review edits before they hit the plot.
Power Planning
Design distros, breakout groups, and circuit assignments. Load calculations flag overloads against breaker amp settings before the call.
Paperwork Generation
Channel hookups, instrument schedules, dimmer hookups, focus charts, color counts, and cheat sheets — all as clean PDFs in seconds.
Label Printing
Design templates for Avery sheets or send directly to a Zebra thermal printer. Logo embedding, custom fonts, ZPL output.
How it works
From import to call in four steps.
Import your plot
Open a Vectorworks file or start fresh. All instrument data imports automatically.
Add electrical data
Assign dimmers, circuits, DMX addresses, and cable runs. Error checking flags conflicts live.
Generate paperwork
Select the reports you need. Generate a single master PDF or individual sheets.
Print and go
Print labels for gel cuts and instruments. Head to the venue with everything organized.
Trusted by electricians
"BeamSync cut my prep time for a major regional production from a full day to about two hours. The Vectorworks integration actually works."
"Finally a tool that thinks like an electrician. The power planning alone has saved me from two potentially dangerous overloads."
"I've been using the old Lightwright for 15 years. BeamSync is what it should have become. The label printing alone is worth the price."
