Version 2.1.11
Released January 16, 2026
This release is primarily a bug-fix update, with a few new features, most notably significant improvements to OSC.
NEW
You can now use a much wider range of characters, for example when naming labels.
Additional scales are now available when using the Dialog Gated loudness type.
Open Sound Control (OSC)
This version includes a major update to OSC functionality.
Connections
Under System > General, you’ll find a new Connections section.
Connections allow you to define OSC settings (IP address, port, protocol, action type, etc.) once and reuse them across all buttons and actions.
If a setting changes, for example an IP address, it only needs to be updated in one place, rather than on every individual button.
A predefined connection, Localhost, is included. This represents the device itself.
Use this connection when sending OSC commands to the device itself to access features that are available exclusively via OSC.
System Events
You can now define actions that are automatically triggered when specific events occur. Supported events are:
Preset Changed
Demo Mode Changed
Sample Rate Changed
Preset Events
Presets now include a new Events section: below Routing and View, you’ll find a new Events button.
At this stage, one event is available, with more to follow:
• Preset Loaded: Triggers a defined action automatically when the preset is loaded.
New Connection Type: Dante API
For TouchControl 5 Dante and TouchMonitor 5 Dante, Dante API is now available as a connection type.
This enables direct subscription and unsubscription of channels within your Dante network.
Combined with the Preset Loaded event, this enables a powerful new feature: incoming Dante channels can now be configured automatically when a preset is loaded.
For implementation definition, read our OSC blog.
OSC Implementation Update
- Incoming OSC messages can now be received with or without a leading “/”.
Speech Intelligibility (TMxCore)
A new option is now available to enable or disable Speech Intelligibility.
FIXED
TouchControl 5 Ravenna
In some cases, Ravenna did not respond correctly when multiple devices shared the same network name. Fixed.
In some cases Ravenna was not running because of certain state issues. Fixed
TouchMonitor 5
On some TM5 units, the device occasionally booted into the default preset or displayed an error when attempting to load a preset. Fixed
TMxCore
- Some SI elements were not available after recalling a preset. Fixed
All Devices
The Webapp could become unstable after some time of use. Fixed
Some instruments, such as Vectorscope and Chart, could stop running after operating for an extended period. Fixed
LFE Bleed does not remember its rotation state. Fixed
Stereo Correlator: Initial size is too big. Fixed
Tools are displayed in routing, makes no sense. Fixed
OSC Argument is not removable. Fixed
When OSC Type was set to UDP, messages were sent twice. Fixed
In some occasions, the webapp would become unstable when copying or cutting from a text field. Fixed
Network Display could crash if the browser zoom level was set to anything other than 100%. Fixed
In rare occasions, the preset editor could crash when instruments were removed. Fixed
Version 2.1.6
Released November 10th, 2025
TouchControl 5 Ravenna Update Issue
We have identified an issue with the firmware upload feature affecting only the Ravenna versions (not the Dante models).
After updating to version 2.1.3, it is no longer possible to upload new firmware.
How to fix the issue:
Unplug and replug and wait for Boot screen 4 times to revert to an earlier version of the software.
Then update to version 2.1.6 and all is fine again.
Updates
- The Routing could not be edited when a preset is imported from a TouchMonitor 5. Fixed.
- The Default-preset has been renewed.
New features
- Stereo Correlator now has a Relative Mode setting. With this mode switched ON, the Stereo Correlator takes level differences into account when measuring stereo correlation. If there is a correlation issue but a significant level difference between the channels, the correlation error is considered less severe.
- Boost LFE: There is a new option to boost the LFE with 10 dB.
- TP Over Sensitivity now has the same range as Headroom (-20 to 0 dBFS).
- In some cases, OSC could crash. Fixed.
Version 2.1 (2.1.3)
Released October 24, 2025
Important note on updating the firmware
You may experience issues during the update process. The update can fail, requiring multiple attempts.
In some cases, the device might appear to enter a black-screen state; simply disconnect and reconnect it to continue.
After restarting, the correct firmware should be installed. If not, try the update again - eventually, you WILL succeed. :-)
NEW
All models
Firmware Update Mode
As our installer has grown larger (around 150 MB), we’ve seen increasing issues during firmware updates.
With some browsers, the update process could fail, requiring several attempts to succeed.
In some cases, the device could enter a black-screen mode, requiring a disconnect and reconnect to recover.
We have addressed this by introducing a dedicated Firmware Update Mode.
When entering this mode, audio and processing is disabled, allowing the device to focus entirely on the firmware update.
Progress is displayed both in the browser and on the device itself, in sync.
Note: Progress may appear to pause around 88%, but simply wait, it will continue.
Once the update is complete, the device restarts automatically. Just lean back and enjoy. :-)
Importantly, since this feature is part of version 2.1.3, you won’t experience it until you update next time.
However, you can test it by installing 2.1.3 twice, just for fun.
Network Display
This functionality allows you to view your device screen in any web browser on your local network (also works remotely via VPN).
On the main menu screen of the WebApp, simply press the Network Display button, the browser will switch to the current device view. Operate the display in the browser in the same way as on your device and, for example, display a different view of your current preset. Using your device's IP address, the display can be viewed in up to two additional web browsers or on other computers in the network.
As you know, this is a licensed feature, but if you don’t have the license, you can still try it out.
When you press Network Display, you’ll be prompted to either return or enable Demo Mode. Simply enable Demo Mode and Network Display will work, replacing your current input source with the built-in demo song.
To return to the menu, simply press the Menu button in the righthand sidebar on the Preset overview page. if the sidebar is hidden, just swipe from the right (or left) edge to the centre with the left mouse button pressed.
Delay Compensation
All metering instruments now have outputs. The delay compensation is applied to the outputs so that the displays are
aligned to what is heard when using dialog-gated loudness measurements (more details in section WebApp - Metering).
TouchControl 5 specific
New Recall Volume Button: Allows you to recall as many reference volumes as you want.
TMxCore Specific
Correlation across Immersive Sound Analyzer, Matrix Correlator, and Multi Correlator now accounts for level differences. If channels differ by more than 20 dB, phase is no longer treated as an issue.
A new setting is available: Metering Application > Multicorrelator Parameters > Mode = Legacy or Relative.
Smaller changes
- TP Over Sensitivity now shares the same range as Headroom: –20 dBFS to 0 dBFS.
- The context-sensitive help texts in the WebApp have been significantly expanded. They are enabled by default but can be switched off under System > Appearance > Show Help.
- Exporting and importing of the system settings were not functioning.
Fixes
The Action functionality has been added to the Tools application which is always available in a preset now (also see section WebApp - Tools).
- The Power Off function did not work as intended. Fixed.
- Default Preset could not be duplicated. FIXED
- Power Off did not work as intended. FIXED
- Action Button label not readable. FIXED (new default colors applied)
- Export/Import System Settings not functioning. FIXED
- Preset compatibility across TM5, TC5, and TMxCore (illegal instruments or applications not handled correctly). FIXED
Removed
Clock. We were not satisfied with the initial implementation, so clock has been removed for now to prioritize Network Display and other improvements.
Version 2.0 (2.0.13)
Released 17 July 2025
New application: Tools
Provides useful additions and is always accessible in the View Editor. The included Label element can be placed freely on the screen, with adjustable color, font size, orientation, and more.

Loudness Numeric Updates
Two new Loudness measurement options are available: - PLR (Peak-to-Loudness Ratio): This new measurement option shows the Peak-to-Loudness Ratio and is important for EBU128 measurements. - LDR (Loudness-to-Dialog Ratio): This new measurement option shows the ratio between Integrated Dialog (ID) and Integrated Loudness (I) and is important for EBU128 measurements.
PLR (Peak-to-Loudness Ratio)
A new measurement option showing the Peak-to-Loudness Ratio is now available in the Loudness Numeric instrument. Important for EBU128 measurements.
LDR (Loudness-to-Dialog Ratio)
