Two roles
CONTROL runs the show: GO, FADE, STOP, PANIC, cues, sound FX and timeline GO. VIEW ONLY follows it with no controls, ideal for a stage manager or a monitor.
Version 2.11 · Windows and macOS show-audio app
AMOS CueFlowPrecision. Timing. Performance.
A dedicated show-audio system for theatre, live events, attractions and museums. Run a classic cue list with instant sound effects, or build a multitrack timeline with GO cues, routing and timecode. Then lock it in Show Mode and run the show with confidence.

CUEFLOW Remote
Run the show from your phone. Or just follow it.
Click Remote in CUEFLOW, switch it on and scan a QR code. Any phone or tablet on the same network, Android or iPhone, becomes a control surface or a show monitor, with nothing to install.
Both modes
Cue List shows Now Playing, the cue list and the FX pad. Timeline shows timecode, WAITING FOR GO, the next cue and the GO cue list.
Built for live shows
An ARM pocket guard keeps controls locked until you mean it, double taps are ignored and PANIC always works. View only is enforced by CUEFLOW itself.
The show never waits for Wi-Fi
If the network drops, CUEFLOW carries on playing. The phone shows DISCONNECTED and reconnects by itself.
Several devices at once
Connect phones and tablets together. Tablets get a two-column layout with more of the show at a glance.
Nothing to install
Scan the QR code with the phone camera and the remote opens in its browser, on Android or iPhone. Prefer an app? See CUEFLOW Remote for Android below.
CUEFLOW Remote for Android
Fire cues from your pocket.
Scan the QR code, tap ARM, and the phone's volume keys become GO and STOP. The native Android app adds what a browser page can't do, with the same remote you already know.
- Scan to pairBuilt-in QR scanner, or paste the link. The app remembers your show computer.
- Volume keys = GO / STOPWhile ARMED, Volume Up fires GO and Volume Down is STOP, in Cue List and Timeline. Fire cues without looking. Locked or in the background, they are normal volume keys again.
- Screen on, haptic feedbackThe screen stays awake while connected to a show, and every command answers with a short vibration.
- Same show safetyControl and View only roles, the ARM pocket guard, PANIC and the DISCONNECTED warning, exactly as in the browser remote.

CUEFLOW keeps exact cue timing even when it is minimised or behind other windows.
Precision tools
Every cue, exactly as you want it.
Let the lighting desk run the sound, give every cue its own end point, end fade and loop, and always see what the sound is doing.
Art-Net remote control
Fire cues, sound effects or GO from a lighting-desk fader. Move the fader to Learn its channel, then set the On and Off levels.
Cue List + Timeline
Fade-out alert
A large flashing FADING OUT countdown, then STOPPED, so everyone in the booth sees what the sound is doing.
FX stop strip
Every sound-effect button has its own STOP strip, to cut that one effect without touching the rest.
End points & end fades
Set where each cue ends, just like its start. Fade to the end point, or start the fade there.
Loop & Space fade
Loop a cue between its start and end points, and choose whether Space fades it out or stops it at once.
Rehearsal jump
Click the waveform while a cue plays to jump straight there and carry on: perfect for rehearsals.
MIDI triggers
Fire cues and FX from your MIDI controller.
Map your cues and all eight sound-FX buttons to a MIDI pad: press LEARN, hit a pad, done. A drum pad full of sound effects, a keyboard or a footswitch can launch the sound, and an FX fired from MIDI plays over the running cue.
- Pad, key, CC or program change. Notes, CCs rising above 0 and program changes on any channel.
- Release stops. An option for hold-to-play: the cue or FX plays while the pad is held.
- One push, one shot. A CC fires once per push, so moving a fader never re-launches a sound.
- Plug in and play. Controllers are picked up automatically, with an activity light and the last message received.
- Works with everything else. Use it alongside Art-Net triggers, launch hotkeys and Timeline Mode's own MIDI bindings.
Cue and FX editors
Every setting, one screen.
The cue and sound-FX editors share one clean, tabbed design that fits on any laptop screen, with no scrolling. The name, icon and colour sit in the header, and three tabs keep everything in reach.
- Audio. Waveform with start and end points, end fade, loop, Space behaviour, level and EQ for cues; start and stop points, volume and overlap for FX.
- Look. The icon and colour, so every cue and FX button is easy to spot.
- Remote control. Hotkey, MIDI and Art-Net, with what is set shown on the tab, such as Key 4 · MIDI Note 36 · Art-Net. Reset to Default on an FX also clears its triggers.
Rock-solid playback, timecode and saving, with true 29.97 drop-frame timecode.
Two modes, one show
Cue List when it is simple. Timeline when it is not.
CueFlow combines the classic cue player operators already trust with a full multitrack show environment. Pick the mode that fits the production.
Cue List Mode
The classic cue player, one cue at a time.
- A playlist of cues, launched in order with total control
- Per-cue start and end points, end fades and fade time, set on the waveform
- Loop a cue, and choose a fade or a hard stop on Space
- Manual fade to bring a cue down live, on the operator's timing
- 8 sound-FX buttons on F1–F8 over the main track, each with its own STOP strip
- FX buttons playable from MIDI too (LEARN, hold-to-play)
- MIDI triggers: start any cue from a pad, key, CC or program change
- Art-Net triggers: fire cues and FX from a lighting-desk fader
- Live countdown of the time remaining on the playing cue
- Master fader, stereo VU meters and a 3-band master EQ
- Output device selection, PANIC and Show Mode lock
Best for: plays, school productions, ceremonies and hotel shows, where cues follow one another.
Timeline Mode
A multitrack show, driven by GO cues.
- Clips on tracks: drag-and-drop import, trim, snapping, automatic crossfades, fade curves
- Clip inspector for gain, speed, reverse and lock; copy, paste and duplicate
- Per-track solo, mute, volume and pan
- GO cues of five types (GO, Wait, Stop, Jump, Fade) with a Cue List panel
- Volume automation and several output devices with routing
- MIDI, keyboard and Art-Net learn, MIDI Time Code and LTC send and chase
- Offline WAV export, master recording and a full-screen Show Mode
Best for: musicals, attractions, museum installations and shows locked to lighting or video.
Switch between the two modes with one button.
Timeline Mode in detail
Everything the operator needs. Nothing in the way.
Built to be easier and safer to run than a music-production workstation: the tools for building a show, and a locked, readable screen for running it.
Multitrack clips
Drag audio files straight onto a track lane, move clips in time or across tracks, and trim them with edge handles. A waveform is drawn in every clip.
Snapping & crossfades
Moves and trims snap to the grid, clip edges, cues and the playhead. Overlap two clips and an equal-power crossfade is applied automatically.
Fade curves & editing
Fade in and out with linear, exponential, logarithmic, S-curve or equal-power shapes. Copy, paste at the playhead and duplicate in one keystroke.
Clip inspector
Start, source offset, length, gain, speed, reverse, mute and lock for the selected clip, all in one bottom panel.
Track mixing
Every track has solo, mute, a volume fader with a live meter and a pan control that recentres with a double-click.
GO cues
Playback holds at each cue until the operator presses GO. Cues number themselves by time, can be named, located and removed in the Cue List panel.
Five cue types
GO holds for the operator, Wait continues after a set time, Stop ends playback, Jump loops or re-orders, Fade takes the master to a level.
Volume automation
Draw volume points over any track, from silence up to 150%. Automation plays live and is included in the rendered mix.
Outputs & routing
Add named outputs such as FOH, Rear or Backstage, choose a device for each and route any track to it. Mute an output in one click.
WAV export & recording
Render the whole timeline to a stereo WAV, faster than real time, with fades, automation and levels. Or record the live master output during the show.
Show Mode
Editing locks and a full-screen live display takes over: giant GO, current and next cue with countdown, large timecode, upcoming cues, STOP and a big PANIC.
Safety net
Autosave every 15 seconds while there are changes, undo and redo for timeline edits, and an Event Log of every GO, file, device and error event.
Show control & sync
Fire GO from a footswitch or the lighting desk. Lock to timecode.
CueFlow plays well with the rest of the booth: hardware triggers in, timecode in or out, and every output where you need it.

- MIDI footswitch
- MIDI controller
- Art-Net from the lighting desk

Why a cue player
A dedicated cue player, not a media player.
A standard media player is built to listen to music. CueFlow is built to run a show, where the next sound has to start exactly when it should.
