Creating a Cue

Adding a Cue

While within a cue sheet add a cue by clicking on the Actions button and selecting New Music Cue. Alternatively, use the New Cue Keyboard Shortcut by simultaneously pressing the ‘Alt’ & ‘C’ buttons  for Windows, or the ‘Option’ & ‘C’ buttons for Macs.

The new cue edit form will open up in split screen view. If a track is missing mandatory metadata, required information warnings will appear in red. Click on the number for more details about any missing required fields. Clicking Create will move the data from the edit form to the cue list.

Note: By default, the system requires users to add Interested Parties (IPs) individually. To change this, users can turn on Quick Input. See the chapter on User Preferences for more information about Quick Input. 

All cues within the cue list have a corresponding review status indicator. Review status indicators reflect missing metadata and, if red, will prevent the cue sheet from being submitted to the broadcaster. See the chapter on Understanding Review Status Indicators for more information.
