Visualz 3.0.7

3.0.7 is the release we've been building toward — the one where the CVJ-1 stops being a private prototype and becomes something you can pre-order. The desktop app grows a second skin to drive the hardware, the licensing model gains real multi-seat semantics, and paid users get a phone remote.

CVJ-1 pre-orders are open

The CVJ-1 page is now an actual storefront — pre-orders are live at $2499 (down from the $3599 spec-page placeholder), bundled with a Pelican 1550 flight case, 1 TB NVMe, and a baked-in lifetime PRO license. Inventory is capped per drop and tracked through the same Stripe pipeline as PRO; the page re-fetches remaining units on every load, and checkout refuses to start once the cap is hit so the queue stays honest.

Deck mode — the app now has two faces

The Visualz binary can boot in one of two modes:Perform (the VJ software you already know) orDeck (a touch-first surface laid out for the CVJ-1's integrated screen and physical controls). The CVJ-1 launches the app with --vz-mode=deck baked into its boot config; everyone else can flip into Deck from settings to take it for a spin on a touchscreen laptop.

Deck ships with four tabs — Mix (sources, faders, pads, XY), FX (live effect cards with their params surfaced as big touch controls), Bindings (MIDI mapping right on the device, no JSON), and Library (presets + packs). Layout is bezel-aware so nothing important hides behind the CVJ-1's case lip, and the new cvj1-deck MIDI profile maps every fader, encoder, and pad on the hardware out of the box.

Multi-seat PRO licensing

PRO used to be all-or-nothing per email — every machine you signed in on either had PRO or didn't. That breaks the moment a venue wants to license three rigs against one billing entity, or someone buys a CVJ-1 while their laptop already runs lifetime PRO.

3.0.7 replaces that with a capacity model. Your subscription quantity sets how many seats are PRO; each lifetime purchase adds one more seat. When you have more machines than seats, most-recently-used wins — the rigs you actually performed on hold their license, and older idle seats drop to free until you sign in on them again.

The pricing page now exposes a Seats field on every PRO checkout (monthly, annual, lifetime — yes, you can buy multiple lifetimes in one charge), and the cadence labels read "per seat / month" accordingly.

Phone remote for paid users

Settings → Remote on a PRO rig now generates a QR code. Scan it from any phone on any network and you land at a minimal control surface — track change, play / pause, play mode, blackout — that drives the rig live. No app install, no account on the phone side; the session lives as long as the rig is online. Useful when you've handed your laptop to the booth and want to kill the visuals from the floor without elbowing back to the keyboard.
