It can create PDF scripts in various formats and generate files that trigger audio beeps or vision wipes to assist the recording process. Available in OS X (Universal Binary) and Windows (for XP - Win7), the program initially runs in demonstration mode (fully featured) for three days.

WHY CREATE CUES IN PRO TOOLS SESSIONS?
The most efficient way to create cues is from within Pro Tools. This new workflow not only speeds up the process of creating cues, but these cue tracks can be used by other editors or mixers as an indication of what work is in progress.
If pictures are re-cut while cueing, cue timing can easily be updated by grouping cue tracks to edit tracks during the re-conform. Once the edit tracks have been re-conformed (either manually or using third-party software like EdiTrace), the cues can be played with the new pictures to update timing or text as required.

NCIS Los Angeles - CBS Television
EdiCue is a game changer for us on NCIS Los Angeles. We have at least three cuts per episode and before I found EdiCue, our ADR was cued using a File Maker Pro template that is popular here in Hollywood. The FMP list looks great but IS NOT conformable, being a manual input approach. Having to conform the Cue list to each new cut cue by cue was killing us. Since I've been spotting Foley for many years in Pro Tools I was looking for a similar solution for generating ADR cues in PT and having new cut cues generated as a by product of conforming. EdiCue nails that and more...with a good clean look and powerful sub functions (more than we use) it has become one of our magic bullets. The learning curve is easy, and we adapted it to our workflow in a matter of days, including learning to cue in PT. There has been no looking back and the price is more than reasonable. I strongly recommend EdiCue to anyone looking to modernize their ADR workflow. Wilson Dyer MPSE - Sound Supervisor: NCIS Los…

Worlds Greatest Dad
I have used EdiCue on every show I have worked on in the past three years. It has completely cut down my preparation time for ADR cue lists, and really continues to impress clients with its clear and concise ADR reporting. I most recently used it on “World’s Greatest Dad,” starring Robin Williams. I continue to implement EdiCue in editorial in every way I can, including foley spotting. Edicue is an extremely viable asset and tool. Harn Meyle is a freelance dialogue editor who resides in Santa Monica, California.

Seven Pounds - Sony Pictures
EdiCue is fabulous and it takes no time to learn how to use. The ease of it's interface with Pro Tools, it's cue sheeting options, and most importantly, it's ease in conforming sessions; takes hours off the ADR Supervisors process. Finally; there is an ADR program that can exist within your actual Pro Tools session, and be conformed just like any other track.

We recently used EdiCue on The Pacific (HBO) and Quarantine (Screengems) and were consequently able to cue ADR under one application and easily update and personalize cue sheets. EdiCue is intuitive fully supported software and has improved our ADR process so that we can work smarter on a fully traceable system. Jon Wakeham - Sound supervisor, 424 Post…
