The composer is the one screen the whole product exists for: who hears about it, where it plays, one tap. Open it with the GO LIVE button on the studio dashboard.
- WHO — the guest list. Pick segments; the counts are live rows, and "This is a big one" reaches fans who asked for big ones only.
- The reach sentence: you're about to notify this many by push and this many by email. This is the number you'll see on the receipt.
- WHERE — the front stage. BackstagePass is always on; checked platforms ride along, and fresh-key platforms ask for today's paste right here.
- The entitlement row and START BROADCAST — what this tap costs sits directly above the button that spends it.
Who — the guest list
Segments are counted from rows fans actually wrote — everyone, Pass holders, the behavioral lists from your audience page. The preview under them is the same eligibility query as the send itself, so the number you see before the tap is the number on the receipt after. Every dial a fan set — fewer messages a week, big ones only, the daily roll-up — is honored, and every held send is counted on your receipt: held, never hidden.
How — the channels
Push is unmetered on every rung. Email is unmetered on paid rungs; the free rung shows its month's meter right on the chip, before anything sends. Texting is its own add-on with its own consent rules — no opt-in on file, no text, ever.
Where — the front stage
Your room is always on. Platforms you've connected and checked can be armed with a tap; a platform that mints a fresh key each show (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook) asks for today's paste right in the row — without it, that feed is skipped loudly rather than armed dead.
What START actually does
- Checks the room can back the claim. LIVE is a promise fans act on, so GO refuses unless media is actually flowing — your camera on stage in the control room, or your encoder pushing. A refused GO moves nothing: nobody is notified, no credit is spent, and the screen tells you exactly what to fix.
- Spends the entitlement, once. The row above the button says what this tap costs — your plan, a $27 credit, or the link to get one. A double-tap can't spend twice.
- Opens the doors. Everyone in the waiting room walks straight in; their page becomes the room without a reload.
- Sends the blast. Every eligible fan is told, on the rail that reaches them, exactly once. The counts land on the receipt.
- Lights the front stage. Each destination goes live and reports its own state on the control room's roster.
The pro move
Stream the first 15 minutes everywhere, then cut the socials and finish backstage. Your room, your list — the whole play is in the cut.
