About
Sidecar is an independent hobby project, made for fun and practice. It is not
affiliated with or endorsed by Behringer or Music Tribe; WING is their trademark.
It tries hard to emulate the WING faithfully, but it is incomplete and can differ
from the real console (the start-up notice lists how). Don't rely on it for a
critical live show without testing it first.
Sidecar is free software under the GNU Affero General Public License v3 (see LICENSE;

Sidecar v0.2.0
The first public beta of the Universal Mixer: Sidecar becomes a mixer core without one
console's limits (docs/UNIVERSAL_MIXER.md), on which the WING is an emulation and
other consoles will be. The engine and the show format take any configuration (any
number of channels, buses, mains and matrices, up to 256 DCAs and mute groups, 64 FX
slots), and a strip's processing is a chain that can hold extra blocks and tap points.
Its own interface, the Universal Mixer, is a preview beside the WING surface
(SETUP > SIDECAR > INTERFACE): a MIXER view for a console of any size with the selected
strip whole across the top, an inspector for a strip's chain and sends, curves with
handles, ROUTING, FX RACK, MONITORING, SCENES, RECORDER and SETUP. The WING surface
works as before and shows the Universal Mixer's blocks on HOME > CHAIN.
Also new: the audio interface as a device of its own in ROUTING, a SIDECAR tab on
SETUP for everything a WING doesn't have, a plugin overview window, more FX slots,
direct outs, multichannel WAV import in the multitrack editor; and fixes for a crash in
the plugin overview, OPEN EDITOR on the INS screen, the display jumping to the EQ, and
the WING DSP measured against a WING COMPACT.
Shows saved by this version (format 4) don't open in Sidecar 0.1.x; shows from 0.1.x
open as before.
Added
-
Universal core, Phase 1 step 1: the console's counts are a configuration
(ConsoleConfig,Engine::configure; the WING's by default). Up to 256 DCAs and
256 mute groups (the WING uses 16 and 8): strip memberships, engaged mute groups,
source mute groups, recall scopes, global safes and snippets hold any of them, and
shows store them (as before while only the first 64 are used). C ABI 25:
ld::GroupMask/ld::GroupBits,ld_engine_counts,ld_engine_configure,
ld_engine_set_num_dcas,ld_engine_set_num_mute_groups. -
Universal core, Phase 1 step 2: any number of mains and matrices (up to 256 each;
the WING has 4 and 8). A strip's sends to them are stored by destination, like
its bus sends, instead of a fixed block of 4 and 8. Shows save a strip's sends to
the console's mains and matrices. C ABI 26:ld_strip_main_send,
ld_strip_matrix_send(C++strip.mains[i],strip.matrix[i]). -
Universal core, Phase 1 step 3a: a strip runs its processing as a chain of
blocks and tap points (chain.rs); the WING's strips and its 24 process orders
are templates of that chain. The sound is unchanged (checked byte for byte). -
Universal core, Phase 1 step 3b: extra processing blocks (filter, EQ, dynamics,
insert, delay; up to 32 per strip) anywhere in a strip's chain, saved with the show
(<Chain>) and recalled by scenes with their section. Engine and show only for
now; the C ABI and the new interface come later. -
Universal core, Phase 1 step 3c: tap points anywhere in a strip's chain (up to 32
per strip); any send to a bus, main or matrix can take its signal at one. Saved with
the show. C ABI 27: the sends'tap. -
Universal core, Phase 1 step 5: tests that run a console that isn't a WING (48
channels, 24 buses, 2 mains, 6 matrices, 32 DCAs, 12 mute groups, extra blocks and
taps) end to end, in Rust and in C++, through a show save and load. -
Universal Mixer, Phase 2 step 1: the window is a shell around an interface ("skin"):
the WING surface, unchanged, or the Universal Mixer's own interface, a preview for
now. SETUP > SIDECAR > INTERFACE switches between them at once (an app
preference). A show of a console that isn't a WING opens in the Universal Mixer;
choosing WING then offers to make it a fresh WING. The monkey test can start on the
Universal Mixer (--interface universal). -
Universal Mixer, Phase 2 step 2: a strip's chain in the C ABI (version 28) and the
C++ facades, for the Universal Mixer's chain editor: its steps in processing order
(ld_strip_chain), its extra blocks with their parameters and meters
(ld_strip_block), adding, moving and removing blocks and user taps, clearing the
chain, a block's model and its curve (ld_strip_block_response), and
ld_engine_set_config. C++:Strip::getChain,getBlock,insertBlock,
moveBlock,removeBlock,clearChain,insertTap,moveTap,removeTap,
setBlockModel,getBlockResponse;MixerEngine::setConfig. -
Universal Mixer, Phase 2 step 3: the Universal Mixer's first view. Its MIXER view
has a column for every strip of the console, whatever its size (pan, MUTE, SOLO, the
fader with its output meter, the strip's colour, label and name; a tap on the name
selects the strip), scrolled sideways, with keys that show one kind of strip at a
time. Touch first: controls move by how far a finger travels and never jump, a double
tap resets them, keys are at least 44 px. It is drawn with a dark theme's design
tokens (src/ui/universal). The top bar shows the console's counts and a key back
to the WING surface. -
Universal Mixer, Phase 2 step 4: the inspector. Selecting a strip in the Universal
Mixer opens it beside the mixer. CHAIN lists the strip's processing in order (its own
blocks, the fader between PRE-FADER and POST, extra blocks and user taps): ADD puts a
filter, EQ, dynamics, insert or delay block or a user tap after the selected row,
REMOVE takes one away, and a drag moves it. The selected block's editor has its keys,
model, curve, gain reduction and every parameter of its model, for the strip's own
blocks and extra blocks alike. SENDS has a row per bus, main and matrix the strip can
send to, with ON, level and where the send takes the signal (PRE, POST, GRP or one of
the strip's user taps). -
Universal Mixer, Phase 2 step 5: ROUTING, FX RACK and MONITORING, shown by keys under
the top bar. ROUTING is a patch matrix: INPUTS patches the channels' and aux's
inputs from a group of sources, OUTPUTS feeds the interface's outputs from any bus,
main or matrix side or the monitor paths, for a console of any size. FX RACK has a
tile per FX slot and the selected slot's device, plugins and controls (the device's
front panel or its parameter list). MONITORING has the speakers' and phones' paths
and the solo settings, with CLEAR SOLO. -
Universal Mixer, Phase 2 step 6: SCENES (GO, PREV, NEXT, ADD, STORE, RENAME, UP,
DOWN, REMOVE), RECORDER (the recorder pages and the multitrack editor) and SETUP: the
console's configuration (channels, aux, buses, mains, matrices, DCAs, mute groups,
FX slots) changes without a reset. New ones are added at the end and everything else
stays; fewer take from the end after a warning, keeping a bus, main or matrix that
something sends to, a DCA or mute group with members and an FX slot in use. AUDIO
(the audio device) and PREFERENCES too. C ABI 29:ld_engine_set_num_strips. -
SETUP has a SIDECAR tab (gold) for everything a WING doesn't have, behind three
keys: SETTINGS (the console's size, the surface's finish, the console model, the
interface WING / UNIVERSAL, the audio device and the outputs' protection, which were on
GENERAL and AUDIO), PLUGINS and LOG (the tabs they were). GENERAL's CONSOLE
keeps the console's own name, software and data folders; UTILITY opens SIDECAR's LOG. -
The audio interface is a device of its own in ROUTING: a page named after its driver
(ASIO, CORE AUDIO, ALSA, JACK, WASAPI; the WING surface's fourth ROUTING key, the
Universal Mixer's third ROUTING tab) patches each interface input to a console input
port (LOCAL IN, AES50 B / C) and each interface output to a console output port, with
the driver's channel names. Straight through by default, as before; STRAIGHT puts it
back. The patch is the computer's, kept per driver and device in the app settings. -
Universal Mixer: a channel panel across the top of MIXER shows the selected strip
whole (input, filter, gate, EQ and dynamics with their curves, its chain in order, its
sends a line each); CHANNEL hides or shows it. The curves have handles there and
in the inspector: EQ bands (frequency and gain by dragging, Q with the wheel, default
with a double tap), a filter's cuts, and a dynamics block's threshold and ratio (a
gate's range) on its transfer curve, a new view with its gain reduction. MODEL and FX
RACK's DEVICE open a grid of the models' front panels (the WING's pictures). Its
screenshots are rendered at 1920 x 1080. A list's device tag no longer covers its value
when the list is narrow. -
The WING surface shows the blocks and taps added in the Universal Mixer: HOME has a
CHAIN tab of Sidecar's (after TAGS; CHAIN +n while the strip has n of them)
listing the strip's processing top to bottom, a row per block with its model or
setting and ON, the added ones in gold; the block column on the left has a gold +n
notch under the block they follow. What a skin shows of a chain is shared (ui/ChainSummary), for the
consoles to come. -
Universal Mixer, Phase 2 step 7 (Phase 2 complete): the user guide's chapter The
Universal Mixer (preview), view by view with screenshots; the README shows it, and the
start-up notice says what it covers. The screenshots are rendered by a test category of
their own (LiveDAWTests Screenshots) on a demo console. -
The Universal MIXER view's strips have an overview above a shorter fader: input
level, GATE and DYNAMICS gain reduction, the EQ curve and output level. FADERS
hides or shows the faders at any moment, the overview then taking the column. -
The Universal Mixer tags the parts that come from one console's emulation with its
name (WING: the strip's own blocks, the model lists, front panels, routing groups,
send modes, monitor sources, solo modes and the fader law), ready for the other
consoles to come. -

Sidecar v0.1.6
The fourth round of matching Sidecar to a real WING, cross-checked against WING Edit
3.3.4, the WING manual (2025-10-20) and the remote protocols document, with answers
from an owner of a full-size WING and a WING COMPACT: the WING COMPACT is a second
console model with its own surface, keys and custom control sets; every effect was
measured against its original, and its page's meters, needles, gain reduction and
spectrum move with the signal; the routing gains user signals and patches, inputs
straight to outputs and live meters; meters use the WING's ballistics; the EXTERNAL
effect inserts outboard gear; the multitrack editor can keep imported files where
they are. The README has use cases and new screenshots.
Added
-
The meters on the reverb, delay, modulation and pitch pages move with the
effect: VINTAGE ROOM's INPUTS / OUTPUTS ladders, DIMENSION CRS's OUTPUT ladder,
TAPE DELAY's two VUs (the record level onto each tape), VINTAGE PLATE's VU (the
drive into the plate), STEREO DELAY's level tube, DUAL PITCH's output LEDs,
TREMOLO/PANNER's L-C-R needle, the envelope graphs of PHASER and TREMOLO/PANNER
(filled to the envelope's level) and PITCH FIX's LED over the note it hears, through
the FX slots' readouts (ld_fx_readouts). The modulation devices report their LFO's
position, envelope and needle; an LFO graph shows where the LFO is. -
Tap tempo also sets OILCAN DELAY's TIME dial and BBD DELAY's DELAY dial (their
delay time from the taps); the pitch devices' DELAY no longer takes the tap. -
Live meters on the FX pages (dynamics, EQ and utility devices, channel strips,
EXTERNAL): C5-COMBINATOR's band screen shows each band at its gain as it is now
(n-GAIN plus its live gain reduction and SBC makeup) over the input's third-octave
spectrum; 2-BAND DEESSER's band LEDs light while their band de-esses; ULTRA ENHANCER's
STEREO and MONO VUs, PSYCHO BASS's low-band and harmonics meters, TAPE MACHINE's
record-level VU, SUB MONSTER's band meters, VELVET IMAGER's input / output / mid-side
LED meters, correlation bar and LF vector scope, SPEAKER MANAGER's live DYN EQ curve
(as set in blue, as it is now in orange) and the EXTERNAL EFFECT's SEND and RETURN
meters all follow the signal. Each channel-strip section's meter shows its own
block (the gate, the compressor, the 1176, the leveler...), the mastering strip's
tape VU, enhancer VUs and limiter LEDs their units'. Levels move with the app's
meter ballistics (full peak at once, 60 dB/s down); gain reduction meters follow the
processor. The pages poll ~30 times a second and repaint only the meters that move. -
C ABI 23:
ld_fx_readouts(an FX slot's input/output levels and its device's
readouts);ld_fx_latencyincludes a built-in device's own latency. -
Multitrack editor: FILE > Import: COPY TO PROJECT / KEEP IN PLACE / ASK EACH
TIME (kept in the app settings). KEEP IN PLACE plays imported WAV, AIFF and FLAC
files where they are (another drive, a sample library) instead of copying them to
the project's drive; a file the project can't play as it is (another sample rate,
more than two channels, MP3 or another compressed format) still gets a converted
copy, and the event log says why for each. ASK EACH TIME asks on every import and
drop, with Remember my choice. Clips whose file is missing show OFFLINE and
play silence without stopping playback, and play again when the file is back.
FILE > Collect files into project copies the files from outside the project's
folder into it and repoints the clips. FILE > Projects folder chooses where new
projects and their recordings go (the default staysDocuments/Sidecar/Recordings). -
WING COMPACT: SETUP > GENERAL > CONSOLE > CONSOLE MODEL FULL / COMPACT shows
the surface of a WING COMPACT instead of the full-size WING, at once. The top row is
the display unit with the monitoring panel at its right. Below: one fader section of
12 faders (three modules of four) with the COMPACT's nine layer keys (1-12,13-24,
25-36,37-48 AUX IN,BUS MASTER,MAIN MATRIX,DCA,USER 1,USER 2) and
the shift keys, and the key section. BUS, DCA, MAIN MATRIX and USER
choose what the 16 keys do. BUS: a key puts its bus on fader 13. MAIN
MATRIX: keys 1-4 put MAIN 1-4 on fader 13, keys 9-16 MATRIX 1-8. DCA: a key spills
its DCA and puts it on fader 13. USER: custom control keys (see the key sets below).
Fader 13 is the main fader, MAIN 1 at first; it has no scribble strip, only its
meter, and the small LCD beside it names it and the 16 keys. There is no channel
strip, custom controls, 4-Channel, center or right section, as on the console, and
ROUTING has no AUX IN or AUX OUT (the COMPACT has no local aux I/O). The COMPACT is
black: it shows the black finish. CH AUTOSELECT has one key, CMPCT. WING REMOTE:
/$ctl/cfg/mfdr,cscmodeandautosel_CMPCTare fader 13, the keys' mode and CH
AUTOSELECT CMPCT, both ways. The model is an app preference, not saved in shows; it
fits a 1366 x 768 window. LCL 1-24 (the COMPACT's 24 local preamps) all take LOCAL
IN's GAIN range. C ABI version 16 (ld_console_model_info,ld_layers_set_model,
ld_wing_set_model): each model's local I/O (24 local preamps and 1x2 GPIO on the
COMPACT, 8 and 2x2 on the full size; no local aux I/O on the COMPACT). -
WING COMPACT key sets: the 16 keys play the COMPACT's own custom control sets (WING
manual 4.2 and 4.8; WING Edit's CC EDIT on a Compact). USER mode: U1-U4 (keys 1-4
... 13-16). MAIN MATRIX mode: M/M on keys 5-8, which were empty. DCA mode with SETUPSURFACE > USE DCA BUTTONS 1-16 AS CC: D1-D4. Each set has four keys with a
function, a name and a colour, shown on the LCD. Holding VIEW opens CUSTOM
CONTROLS on the keys' set (USER 1-4 .. DCA 13-16 and the DAW mode sets, ‹ › through them); VIEW
pressed opens FADERS. Before, USER mode played the USER layer and the custom control
layer shown. WING REMOTE:/$ctl/user/U1-U4,MMandD1-D4while the console
is a COMPACT (the full-size console keepsU1-U3as the 4-Channel section's F1-F3
layers). Stored with the show as custom control layers 24-32. -
WING COMPACT BUS, MAIN and MATRIX keys (WING manual 4.2, checked on a COMPACT): a
BUS or MAIN key pressed turns on Sends on Fader to the bus or main and held spills
it; a MATRIX key spills or sends as MATRIX SPILL says (see the matrix spill below).
The bus, main or matrix still goes on fader 13. A selected key pressed again lets
go: fader 13 goes back to MAIN FADER and the SOF or spill ends. SETUP > SURFACE on a
COMPACT has MAIN FADER, KEEP MAIN FADER, DCA SPILL ON SELECT, BUS, MAIN and MATRIX
SPILL (which of press and hold spills or sends) and USE DCA BUTTONS 1-16 AS CC; the full-size console's F1-F3, right section SOF, user layer
link and DCA SPILL rows are hidden. WING REMOTE:/$ctl/cfg/mfdrkeep,busspill,
mainspill,mtxspill,dcaspill,dcacc. -
Main spill: the channels, aux and buses feeding a main come onto the faders, as
their own faders. On the COMPACT's MAIN keys (held), as FADER SPILL > MAIN on any
custom control key, and as/$ctl/layer/<L|C|R>/spidx57-60 (MAIN 1-4) on both
models. C ABI version 17: spill kind 5,ld_wing_set_black_finish. -
WING REMOTE reports the WING's own model: discovery,
/?and/$syscfg/$cnsmdlsay
ngc-fullfor the full-size console (it saidsidecar) andwing-compactfor the
COMPACT, and/$syscfg/$cnscfg(where WING Edit takes its ACTIVE WING MODEL from)
wing-fullsizeorwing-compact, so WING Edit and Mixing Station show the right
model. With SURFACE FINISH BLACK the full-size console reportswing-bk(WING
Edit's name for the black WING) in all of them, and the finish changes it at once.
Exported snapshots name the model as WING Edit's do. The serial
SIDECAR0001and the firmware'ssidecarstill tell Sidecar apart. -
Inputs straight to outputs (WING manual 2 and 5.4 OUTPUTS: "route any Source to any
digital or analog output"): on ROUTING > OUTPUTS every source group feeds outputs,
LOCAL IN, AES50, OSCILLATOR, WLIVE PLAY, USB PLAYER and USER SIGNAL included, without
a channel. The output plays the source after its gain, mute and polarity. An output
has one source: a source replaces the strip or monitor path there, and the other way
round. The RECORDER ports tap sources too. Saved with the show and recalled by scenes
with ROUTING (<Patch>); WING REMOTE:/io/out/<grp>/<n>/grpandintake every
input group. -
Buses, mains and matrices as channel sources (WING manual 2.6, "All Buses, Mains and
Matrices can be selected as the Source for all Input and Aux channels"): ROUTING >
CHANNELS' BUS, MAIN and MATRIX groups show two tiles per strip (BUS 1L, BUS 1R ...)
with the strip's colour, name and icon; a touch patches the strip in stereo. The
channel hears it one audio block later (the WING: 38 samples): a channel that sends
to the bus it listens to is a feedback loop through that delay, as on the console.
WING REMOTE:/ch/<n>/in/conn/grpBUS, MAIN, MTX (number 2k-1 = strip k L, 2k = R). -
User Signals and User Patches, the WING's USER SIGNAL group (WING manual 2.6): USR
1-24 copy an input channel, aux, bus, main or matrix, PRE (its tap point) or POST
(after its processing), its L, R or both mixed (L+R); USR 25-56 copy an external
source (a port, a playback channel, the USB player), so two ports from anywhere make a
stereo or mid/side source with their own gain and polarity. Both are sources: MUTE,
POL, name, colour, icon, tags and pairs (STEREO, MID/SIDE). ROUTING > SOURCES' USER
SIGNAL group sets them: SOURCE (the group, then the strip or port), L+R / L / R and
TAP PRE / POST. Channels patch them on CHANNELS (a user signal a block late; a user
patch in the same block), outputs on OUTPUTS (in the same block). WING REMOTE:

warn; choose More info > Run anyway. Audio: ASIO (your interface's driver, ASIO4ALL or
FlexASIO) and WASAPI.
macOS: open the disk image and drag Sidecar to Applications. Sidecar isn't notarized, so the
first time right-click it and choose Open (on macOS 15+: try to open it, then System Settings >
Privacy & Security > Open Anyway), or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Sidecar.app.
Allow microphone access so it can read your interface's inputs. Audio: CoreAudio.
Linux: chmod +x the AppImage and run it (needs FUSE; otherwise add --appimage-extract-and-run),
or unpack the tarball and run ./Sidecar. It uses the system's ALSA, FreeType, Fontconfig and X11
libraries; JACK (or pipewire-jack) is used when installed. See README-LINUX.txt in the tarball.
Choose the audio driver and device in SETUP > AUDIO.
About
Sidecar is an independent hobby project, made for fun and practice. It is not
affiliated with or endorsed by Behringer or Music Tribe; WING is their trademark.
It tries hard to emulate the WING faithfully, but it is incomplete and can differ
from the real console (the start-up notice lists how). Don't rely on it for a
critical live show without testing it first.
