-//**In testing and yet to be released, documentation in progress**// 
  
   * **[[mobolaser:start|MoboLaser Mobile App]]**: MOBOLASER is a mobile application that works on both Apple and Android devices. It supports phones as well as tablets. It is an official way to directly interface with functions of BEYOND on your mobile devices. This application has simple functionally for 5.5's release allowing for simple playback and live control, and zone alignment, however this application will evolve continuously.    * **[[mobolaser:start|MoboLaser Mobile App]]**: MOBOLASER is a mobile application that works on both Apple and Android devices.

   * **[[beyond:grid_toolbar#link|Link]]** Support for the Link protocol from Ableton. Link is a technology developed by Ableton that keeps Link-enabled applications in time over a local network. Link synchronizes musical beat, tempo, and phase across multiple applications running on one or more devices.   * **[[beyond:grid_toolbar#link|Link]]** Support for the Link protocol from Ableton.

 +  * **[[pangobeat:start|PangoBeats]]** PangoBeats is a cutting-edge stand-alone windows application designed to enhance the audio experience by providing real-time Beats Per Minute (BPM) detection. It seamlessly integrates with BEYOND/QuickShow software, offering users the capability to synchronize their audio with visual performances.
  
   * **[[beyond:qshift|Q-Shift]]**: A new, Quick and very light on performance way to do offset effects in BEYOND! Q-Shift allows you to utilize any of the "live effects" parameters and create oscillating effects that are delayed between lasers. These can be applied immediately to all lasers in your setup and simply controlled on a "Pad" style of interface.    * **[[beyond:qshift|Q-Shift]]**: A new, Quick and very light on performance way to do offset effects in BEYOND!

 +  * **New Cue Types**: Newly added **"[[beyond:node-image|Node Image]]"**, **"[[beyond:particle-image|Particle Image]]"**, and **"[[beyond:fifo-image|FIFO Image]]"**. Allowing users to utilize "Touch Designer" style cue creation, physics based particle systems, and live controlled abstracts and images from the mobo laser app, respectively. 
  
   * **[[beyond:3D-Preview|3D Preview]]**: Now you can visualize your lasers in 3D! allowing you to build your rig more accurately and create your previews simpler. This adds a third option for previewing your lasers directly in BEYOND.    * **[[beyond:3D-Preview|3D Preview]]**: Now you can visualize your lasers in 3D! allowing you to build your rig more accurately and create your previews simpler.

 +
 +  * **[[beyond:turbo_streaming|Turbo Streaming]]**: 5.5 introduces a new communication model for large amounts of FB4 laser controllers utilizing UDP over the previous TCP. This UDP streaming protocol is selectable, and not enabled by default. 
 +
 +  * **[[beyond:timeline-markers|Timeline marker import / export]]** : BEYOND now supports import and export of Timeline markers in the format designed by Reaper software. This is a CSV Format, and its expected other systems that use CSV formatted in a similar way will also be able to import like Cuepoints for example.
  
   * **[[beyond:timeline|Timeline Quality of Life Additions]] and [[beyond:timecode|BIG Timecode]]** Additions within timeline for 5.5 include reaper marker imports, timeline track filter, and a new timecode preview window so you can finally full screen your timecode and look cool like the MA guys!   * **[[beyond:timeline|Timeline Quality of Life Additions]] and [[beyond:timecode|BIG Timecode]]** Additions within timeline for 5.5 include reaper marker imports, timeline track filter, and a new timecode preview window so you can finally full screen your timecode and look cool like the MA guys!
