Nobe OmniScope gets Live Pack for on-set and live monitoring

Time in Pixels has released Live Pack for Nobe OmniScope Pro, adding SDI output, Livegrade integration, multi-input monitoring, recording, snapshots, focus peaking and loudness metering for on-set and live work.

Time in Pixels has introduced Live Pack, a premium add-on for Nobe OmniScope Pro that extends the software beyond the grading suite and onto the set. The new package is aimed at DITs, live production teams, and multi-camera environments where signal analysis must happen quickly, preferably without ritual sacrifice to the cable gods.

A scope that wants to leave the desk

Live Pack adds seven features to Nobe OmniScope Pro: SDI output via supported Blackmagic DeckLink and UltraStudio hardware, direct Pomfort Livegrade integration, multi-input monitoring with composite grid layouts, file recording, interval-based snapshots, focus peaking, and loudness metering for EBU R128 and ATSC A/85. The add-on is a one-time purchase rather than a subscription, which remains refreshingly free of rental fever. An existing Nobe OmniScope Pro licence is required.

The useful bit: less hardware nonsense

The most interesting addition for on-set colour work is the Pomfort connection. Live Pack integrates directly with Pomfort Livegrade and uses software-based GPU signal sharing instead of SDI loopbacks or extra routing hardware. This should be near zero latency and a feature that requires Pomfort Livegrade 7.1 or later and is available in the 1.11.x beta line. In less ceremonial language, that means fewer cables, fewer boxes, and fewer opportunities for a tiny connector to ruin everybody’s mood before lunch.

More inputs, less squinting

The multi-input side also makes sense in context. DP’s January 2024 look at OmniScope already highlighted the Input Strip as one of the software’s most useful additions for handling multiple signals.

Live Pack extends that idea with support for multiple inputs and composite views in layouts such as 1×2, 2×2, 2×3 and 2×4. That gives users a built-in multi-viewer for camera matching, confidence monitoring and side-by-side signal comparison without having to spread the job across three screens and a prayer.

Recording, snapshots and the quiet luxury of evidence

Live feeds can be recorded directly to disk, and the snapshot system can capture stills at fixed intervals down to milliseconds. Those snapshots can then be reused as live input sources for side-by-side comparisons.

This is exactly the sort of feature that looks modest in a bullet list and then becomes extremely persuasive the moment somebody insists that Camera B definitely looked different twenty minutes ago. Now there is evidence, which is terribly inconvenient for mythology.

Focus and loudness join the party

Live Pack also adds focus peaking and loudness tools, which makes the package more relevant beyond pure colour work. There are two peaking modes, Enhanced Edges and Normal, plus adjustable thresholds and peaking colour. The loudness meter supports both EBU R128 and ATSC A/85, which gives the software more value in broadcast and event workflows where technical monitoring and compliance need to coexist without becoming a relay race between applications.

For those who do not know the tool

Nobe OmniScope has been one of the more respected software scope solutions in this part of the industry for years. In DP’s January and February 2025 coverage of CineMon, OmniScope was (and is) still the leading option on macOS and Windows in this category, even as newer competitors started poking at the edges of the market. That matters because Live Pack is not trying to inflate a lightweight utility into something grand. It is extending a tool that already had a reputation for serious signal work and unusually deep control.

That pattern also shows up in Time in Pixels’ recent releases. In February 2026, DP covered Nobe LutBake and noted the same general design logic: practical, clear, and built for people who would rather work than admire a fashionable interface. Live Pack fits neatly into that line. It does not try to turn OmniScope into an everything machine. It takes the parts that matter on set and in live environments and makes them faster, tighter and more immediately useful. Which, in production, is usually more valuable than a hundred visionary claims and a launch trailer full of glowing particles.

Pricing

Pricing is currently a launch offer of 99 US dollars or 85 euros for a 2-seat licence, with a regular price of 149 dollars, available until 24 March 2026. Nope, still no subscription, no recurring fees, just a simpüle license. Do you remember the golden times, when that was the standard?

Why this matters for DP readers

The practical takeaway is straightforward. If you already use OmniScope in post, Live Pack makes the jump to on-set and live monitoring much more credible: specific, practical and allergic to fluff. Some tools announce a revolution. Others quietly remove three recurring annoyances from your day. The second category tends to age better.
