EdiCue v4 Has Been Released
The goal for software developers is to create applications that are simple to use while containing the flexibility and functionality required for its user base. This is especially true when the application interfaces with another application. In this case, the primary application needs to be able to communicate with the secondary effectively, so that data is exchanged correctly, without the need for the user to make selections while importing or exporting data. This has been the driving force behind the updates made in EdiCue v4.
EdiApps macOS Monterey Compatibility Info
Apple released its latest major update for macOS called macOS Monterey (12.0) on October 25, 2021. All our applications are now compatible with this major update.

EdiApps and macOS Catalina Compatibility Info
Apple released its major update for macOS called macOS Catalina (10.15) on October 7, 2019. One of the major changes in this update is that it will only allow 64-bit applications to run.

These are the first versions of each app that have been released that are compatible with macOS Catalina:
EdiCue v3 Has Been Released
Since releasing EdiCue v1 nearly 12 years ago to the day, I’ve received an abundance of user feedback and feature requests for the application. As I live in Australia, I would implement an update while clients slept, where possible, so they could wake up to an email containing a link to download a pre-release version. Other requests required extra patience.
EdiApps now compatible with iLok Sharable Licenses
We are pleased to announce that all of our iLok enabled applications can now be licensed using iLok Sharable Licenses. This allows our applications to be authorized from a license server on a local network, eliminating the need to have a physical iLok dongle connected to every computer running one of our applications.
Transferring ADR Cues - Part 1
Being able to transfer ADR cue data from one system or application to another can save hours of manual cueing, or copy and pasting of individual data fields. However, the most common way of transferring this data is via a text file, and there are several things about this method that can get you stuck. When dealing with non-English text, or transferring between different operating systems, there’s a good chance your data won’t come across as expected.
Transferring ADR Cues - Part 2
Following on from my previous post explaining the background on how text files work, here I will go into examples of how to manage text files and prepare them for import into EdiCue.
Transferring ADR Cues from Pro Tools to EdiCue
While printing ADR cues in EdiCue, text characters can sometimes be displayed incorrectly. If this is happening to you, you probably have a 'text encoding' issue.
