Introducing Show Templates, Custom Branding, and Cross-Tool Show Sync

Show templates, custom branding, and cross-tool show sync — the Pro features that turn LGL from a collection of tools into an integrated show surface.

Let's Go Live TeamMarch 29, 20264 min read

We built LGL because AV crews shouldn't need four browser tabs, three vendor accounts, and a prayer to run a clean show. The free tier already gives you Stage Timer, and the trial opens up Prompter and VOG. But today we're shipping three Pro features that make the full toolkit click.

Show Templates & Presets

You run the same show formats every week. Corporate keynotes. Panel discussions. Award ceremonies. Now you can save an entire multi-tool setup — timers, scripts, VOG announcements, and sync triggers — as a reusable template. New show in under 60 seconds instead of rebuilding from scratch.

We're shipping with six built-in starter templates for common formats:

  • Corporate Keynote — Full-stage setup for a single keynote speaker. Includes a 45-minute countdown timer, walk-in and wrap-up VOG announcements, and a prompter script with speaker introduction and closing cue markers.
  • Panel Discussion — Multi-segment timing for moderated panels. Four speaker timers (10 minutes each) with auto-advance, a moderator prompter script with per-speaker cue markers, and transition VOG announcements between segments.
  • Award Ceremony — Presenter-by-presenter flow for awards shows. Includes walk-up music hold timers, winner announcement VOG cues, and a prompter script structured by award category with acceptance speech timing.
  • Town Hall / All-Hands — Executive presentation with live Q&A segment. A 30-minute keynote timer, 15-minute Q&A countdown, opening and closing VOG announcements, and a prompter script with agenda section markers.
  • Worship Service — Service-length timing for worship and liturgical events. Includes sermon, worship set, and offering timers, welcome and closing VOG announcements, and a prompter script for readings and liturgy.
  • Conference Breakout — Quick-turn session setup for breakout rooms. A 25-minute presentation timer, 5-minute Q&A timer, room transition VOG announcement, and a minimal prompter script with session intro and wrap cue markers.

Pro users can also save unlimited custom templates from any active session. Share them with your team if you're on a Workspace plan.

Custom Branding & Display Themes

If you're running a show for a Fortune 500 client, the confidence monitor shouldn't say "Powered by LGL." Pro lets you upload client logos, set brand colors, and choose from a curated font library. Apply a brand profile to any viewer display — timer, prompter, or VOG — and switch between up to 10 saved profiles.

Free accounts show a subtle LGL watermark on viewer displays. Pro removes it entirely.

Cross-Tool Show Sync

This is the feature no competitor can build. Stagetimer, CloudPrompter, and VOG services are separate products from separate companies — they can never offer integrated show flow. LGL is the only platform where a timer completing can auto-advance the prompter to the next speaker script and fire a VOG announcement, all within one session.

Here's how it works:

  1. Configure sync triggers per timer — choose which prompter cue or VOG announcement fires when each timer completes
  2. Drop [CUE: timer-name] markers in your prompter scripts — the prompter auto-scrolls to the matching cue when the linked timer completes
  3. Monitor the entire flow from the Show Flow panel — a visual timeline in the controller view shows your linked sequence and what's coming next

Every auto-triggered action gets a 3-second cancel window so you stay in control during live shows. Nothing fires without giving you a chance to override.

What This Means for Your Workflow

These aren't cosmetic upgrades:

  • Templates cut setup time by 80%. Stop rebuilding the same show configuration every week. Save it once, deploy it forever.
  • Branding makes you look professional without extra work. One brand profile, applied across every display your client sees. No CSS hacks, no workarounds.
  • Show sync eliminates manual cue points. Fewer hands on keyboards during the live show means fewer chances for a missed transition.

Pricing

Pro is $29/mo on an annual plan ($39/mo monthly). Every Pro subscription includes all three features plus Prompter, VOG, and priority support.

If you're already on a trial, these features are live now — open any tool and you'll see the new options in the controller.

If you're not on a trial yet, start your 14-day free trial — no credit card required. You'll have full access to templates, branding, and show sync from day one.
