Strike Back - Korda Studios - Hungary

Moving back to Hungary after 20 years of audio post-production work in Hollywood, the good news was that I began getting calls for ADR sessions in Budapest. The bad news was that the "cue lists" for these sessions consisted of nothing more than the lines to be recorded highlighted on the original...

Adrenaline Studios - Las Vegas

EdiCue and EdiPrompt have streamlined the workflow between our studio and Hollywood studios. Importing all cues by simply dragging and dropping a file has been a HUGE time saver.  Having the cues on the screen with the visual wipe allows the actors to solely focus on their performance.  We...

Technicolor Toronto

EdiPrompt has been a game-changer in our ADR & Foley rooms. This blows away any streamer/wipe hardware box we’ve ever used. Our foley artists are freelance and work in many studios around town. They have stated on many occasions that this work-flow is far superior to anything else they have...

The Following - Soundtrack NY Ltd

EdiPrompt

 

EdiPrompt is an application that allows ADR and foley recordists to cue their actor or artist in a way that they are most comfortable with. EdiPrompt does this by providing a range of highly customisable visual and audio cues. Furthermore, to allow the recordist to focus on the performance they are recording as much as possible, EdiPrompt automates the recording process when using Pro Tools by renaming the record track(s) and locating to each cue point using its Cue List window.

The quickest way to load cues into the EdiPrompt Cue List window is to create or import third-party cues with our Emmy® award-winning application EdiCue. Our application EdiLoad can also be used in conjunction with EdiPrompt to generate files that trigger visual cues at picture and scene change points for foley walkers.

The following video shows EdiPrompt used in conjunction with EdiCue to re-record all the dialogue for the indie film Norman.

Overlay Text and Cues
Overlay Text and Cues
EdiPrompt overlays cues on top of a movie window (see Requirements below). This includes the text of an actors line as well as a visual cue using either a streamer, pair of prompts or a counter. In addition, a progress bar can be displayed to show the duration of the cue, as well as the record status of Pro Tools and the cue or take number.

EdiPrompt can also mask the movie window in two different ways. The first provides the option to mask the whole movie window before or after a cue, while the other can mask the top or bottom of the movie window continuously to hide distracting editorial timecode numbers or text.
Triggering Options
Triggering Options
The cues generated by EdiPrompt can be triggered by:

  • MIDI files generated by EdiCue, EdiPrompt or EdiLoad. These are loaded into Pro Tools and shown on MIDI tracks. These MIDI commands are then sent to EdiPrompt when Pro Tools plays and records
  • Auto cues. These are automatically generated within EdiPrompt when Pro Tools plays or records. These are ideal for recording foley or voiceover to picture
  • External MIDI notes. Third party devices can trigger cues in EdiPrompt by sending it pre-defined MIDI notes. GPI’s can be converted to MIDI notes with devices like a JW Electronics Parallel to MIDI converter
Automate Recordings
Automate Recordings
The EdiPrompt Cue List window can help automate the recording process when using Pro Tools by:

  • Renaming one or more record tracks
  • Locating to each cue in the list with a pre-record length if required
  • Speaking the take number during pre-roll for ident purposes
Stream Deck Integration
Stream Deck Integration
Access the commonly used ADR record functions directly from physical buttons by connecting an Elgato Stream Deck. Install the 'EdiPrompt Commander' plugin (Elgato Marketplace, legacy Stream Deck store, or this website) and you’re ready to drop pre-defined actions onto any Stream Deck button. Now you have a way to navigate the EdiPrompt Cue List, trigger a locate, rename and locate or bypass the selected cue, as well as trigger the EdiPrompt Hot Keys and Pro Tools transport commands to preview, record and stop/play.
Load Cue Data from EdiCue PDFs and TTAL Files
Load Cue Data from EdiCue PDFs and TTAL Files
EdiPrompt can convert the ADR cue data stored within an EdiCue PDF or Netflix TTAL file to generate a MIDI file ready for ADR recording. See this video for more information on how to convert the cue data stored within an EdiCue PDF.
