Weighing your options? What CueSync does
Each page starts from the job you searched for: what CueSync does for it, and what your rig needs.
Looking at SoundSwitch? Here is what CueSync does
CueSync reads the beat and structure of the music, from Pioneer decks or from your own files, and fires cues on the console, media server and show-control software you already run.
Looking at ShowKontrol? Here is what CueSync does
CueSync joins PRO DJ LINK as another player, sends the decks' position on as timecode, and fires cues on the console, media server and show-control software in the rig.
Timecoding every DJ set by hand? Here is what CueSync does
A DJ set that changes on the night has no fixed timeline to program against. CueSync reads the beat and structure of the music and fires cues as it plays, and a scripted show still gets a cue list, laid on a timecode ruler over the music.
Looking at QLC+? Here is what CueSync does
CueSync reads the music, or a show's timecode, and fires cues on the console, media server and show-control software that own the rig.
Looking at Lightkey? Here is what CueSync does on a Mac
CueSync is show-control software for Apple Silicon Macs. It reads the beat and structure of the music, or a show's timecode, and fires cues on the console, media server and show-control software that own the rig.
Looking at MaestroDMX? Here is what CueSync does
CueSync is software on an Apple Silicon Mac. It plans each track from the music's own structure, fires cues on the console or media server that owns your fixtures, and steps back the moment you take over.
Looking at DMXIS? Here is what CueSync does
CueSync is a standalone show-control application for Apple Silicon Macs. It takes MIDI from a DAW or a controller, reads the music itself, and fires cues on the console, media server and show-control software in the rig.
Looking at Chataigne? Here is what CueSync does
CueSync speaks to each console, media server and show-control program in that system's own protocol, and gives you a cue engine, pads and a timeline to fire them from, without writing code.
Looking at Clockworks? Here is what CueSync does
CueSync joins PRO DJ LINK, sends the deck's position on as timecode, and decides what fires: it checks phrase changes, energy and hot cues against a cue stack you wrote, then fires the console, media server and show-control software in the rig.
Looking at ProDJLink? Here is what CueSync does
CueSync joins PRO DJ LINK as another player. The DJ and Production editions send each deck's playhead on as timecode, and the cue engine fires the console, media server and show-control software directly, from the music's phrases, energy and hot cues.
CueSync for QLab users: the DJ side of the show
CueSync fires QLab cues over OSC and handles the live, beat-driven part of a show: it reads Pioneer decks or your own files and fires cues when the music gets there. It leaves the audio and video in QLab and decides when.
Looking at CuePoints? Here is what CueSync does
CueSync builds the cue list on a timeline over the show's audio, syncs it into a grandMA3 sequence, calls the show from one screen, and exports every department's paperwork from the same list.
