Integration

Unreal Engine 5, Driven by the Music

CueSync streams OSC into UE5's built-in OSC plugin — beat, energy, and phrase events drive Blueprints and material parameters for real-time virtual production.

What CueSync Enables

Built-in OSC Plugin

UE5 ships an OSC plugin. CueSync streams straight into an OSC server in your project — no third-party bridge.

Blueprint Parameters

Map live energy and frequency bands to Blueprint and material parameters for reactive virtual environments.

Phrase & Section Events

Fire discrete OSC events on phrase changes and drops to switch sequences, lighting, or scenes.

Beat-Phase Locking

Visuals snap to the downbeat — CueSync locks to beat phase, not just BPM.

Beat Events Under 5 ms

Beat event to OSC output in under 5 ms — frame-fresh reactivity for LED-volume and broadcast.

Multi-Destination Routing

Drive UE5 alongside TouchDesigner and lighting from the same triggers.

Quick Setup

1Enable the OSC plugin in Unreal Engine 5 and create an OSC server on a listening port in your project.
2Add a Unreal Engine OSC output in CueSync pointing at the machine and port.
3Bind incoming OSC addresses to Blueprint events and parameters; map CueSync triggers to those addresses.
4Watch the stream in CueSync's OSC monitor as you map it.
5Check the wiring before you subscribe: configuration is unrestricted without a licence, and Test Connection runs the same liveness probe the live connection uses, so it confirms the device is reachable and answering with real latency. Firing cues is what a licence enables — an unlicensed install never sends one, so the cue path itself is verified after you subscribe, not before.

Engineering facts

Specifics that hold up in production

The load-bearing claims behind CueSync's Unreal Engine 5 integration. Numbers, named subsystems, test references — the things you can verify before the show.

Unreal Engine 5 — Remote Control API, port 8001
CueSync drives UE5 through the Remote Control API: `/RemoteControl/<preset>/<propertyPath>` addresses set exposed properties and call exposed functions on a Remote Control Preset. Default port 8001. Source: UnrealEngineProtocol.kt.
Cue evaluation on a sub-5 ms budget
CueSync evaluates beat events from Pioneer PRO DJ LINK on a sub-5 millisecond budget on the cue-evaluation path, with an OSC send budget under 2 milliseconds — engineered to a strict budget and continuously regression-tested.
15 output protocols, one application
CueSync ships 15 output protocols from a single desktop application: GrandMA2 (Telnet and OSC), GrandMA3 (TCP OSC and UDP OSC), Avolites Titan, ETC Eos, ChamSys MagicQ, Resolume, disguise (d3), VIOSO Player/Show, AV Stumpfl Pixera, TouchDesigner, Unreal Engine 5, QLab (TCP and UDP), MIDI Show Control, Pangolin Beyond, and Custom OSC. Every CueSync edition includes every protocol.

Unreal Engine 5 Questions

No — Unreal Engine 5 includes an OSC plugin. Enable it and create an OSC server; CueSync streams into it directly.

Both — continuous energy/frequency parameters plus discrete beat, phrase, and drop events.

Yes — the sub-5-millisecond beat path and continuous OSC stream suit LED-volume and broadcast pipelines that need music-locked real-time visuals.
