Import any timeline

Upload the sequence the way your editing software exports it: EDL, Final Cut 7 XML (the best results from Premiere and DaVinci Resolve), Avid Media Composer XML, FCPXML, OpenTimelineIO, Pro Tools session text, CSV or AAFPRO. Overlapping clips are merged, gaps are bridged with frame handles and the audio stems of one clip become one entry. A cue sheet started in Google Sheets or Excel can be loaded as a CSV.

Metadata filled in for you

We match your file names against more than 15 million production music records and 10 million commercial music records, and fill in track title, album, label code, composers, publishers, shares, societies and IPI numbers. For entries without a match there is an advanced search.

Check every cue

Every entry shows if it was found, in which library and how good the match is. Filter what is still open, approve entries, edit many at once and clean up with one click: merge duplicates, remove sound effects and recalculate durations.

Films, series and versions

Series are grouped with their seasons and episodes, and the project details for CISAC are entered once. Invite team members to a cue sheet, keep versions with a changelogPRO and duplicate or transfer projectsPRO.

Export in the format the society wants

CISAC 2.0, APRA and other presets, your own templates, Excel, CSV, PDF and EDL, and Pro Tools markers with track namesPRO. Several cue sheets can be merged into onePRO.

Share a read-only link

Send a cue sheet to a music supervisor, a producer or a library without giving them access to your account. The link comes with a QR code and can be deleted at any time.

Your own metadata library

Not every track comes from a partner library. Build your own library, alone or with your teamPRO, and the scan searches it in every project. Upload CSV files with your own columns, or audio files and zip archives whose embedded metadata is read (MP3, WAV, AIF, AIFF, M4A, OGG, FLAC, WMA, AAC, APE and OPUS).

Cue sheet templates

In the template editor you can create Excel and CSV templates with your own columns and structure for exports, and share them with your team.

Our production music partners

The scan pulls track, album, label, composer, publisher and share data directly from these libraries. The available metadata depends on the library.

Cutting in Premiere? Skip the export.

The free Music Cue Sheet Uploader panel reads the music right from your open sequence, so you don't need to export an XML or EDL. Filter the list, clean it up and send it to the Cue Sheet Manager with one click. It runs on your computer and also works offline.
