Music Libraries

By partnering with several production music libraries, we are able to associate a wide range of metadata. When you use tracks from one of the following libraries, the Music Cue Sheet Tool can collect all available metadata about them. To use this feature, enable "Include metadata from music libraries" in the tool. Select a preset or create your own custom cue sheet preset with the metadata you need, such as composer details, artists, label codes, ISRC, GEMA code, and more.

Check out the music from the libraries that work with us and make your work easier by using tracks from those libraries.

Die Metadaten werden anhand der Dateinamen hinzugefügt. Um sicherzustellen, dass alle Lieder erkannt werden, solltest du die Dateien nach dem Herunterladen nicht umbenennen. Wir übernehmen keine rechtliche Haftung für die Richtigkeit der Daten. Du bist verpflichtet, die Korrektheit deiner Musikliste selbst zu überprüfen.

The workflow in detail

Learn how this cue sheet tool works.

There are 6 simple steps you can follow to get the best workflow results:

1. Prepare the sequence for which you want to create a cue sheet. It is best to make a copy and clean up the tracks, removing clips that do not belong there. It is a good idea to collect all the cues on 2 or 3 tracks and export only those tracks.
2. Depending on the software you are using, you can export an EDL, XML or ProTools Session TXT. If you are using Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve, we recommend that you export a Final Cut 7 XML.
3. Upload your sequence to our Music Cue Sheet Tool and choose your desired settings. The tool will analyze your sequence and create a sorted track list.
4. The track list calculates the duration of each clip. Depending on your settings, similar clips are grouped together.
5. If you enable the "Include metadata from music libraries" option and select the libraries from which you used music, the tool will check for additional metadata in those libraries. The information is pulled from data provided directly by our library partners via API or shared database. This includes for example information about the music album, the composer and artist up to library codes and label names.
6. Once all the information is collected, it is exported to the file format of your choice. The recommended export format is CSV, which contains all the data you need and can be easily edited using Excel, Numbers, or Google Sheets.

• XML: Music Cue Sheet - Demo Sequence 1.xml

Sequenz vorbereiten

Bevor du deine Sequenz hochlädst, empfiehlt es sich, sie kurz vorzubereiten. Das geht am besten, indem du deine Sequenz duplizierst und alle unnötigen Audio- und Videospuren entfernst. Es ist außerdem wichtig, alle Spuren zu "flatten", falls du "nested" bzw. verschachtelte Audioclips verwendest. Entferne ggf. auch andere "Audioübergangseffekte" aus der Sequenz.

Merge overlapping identical clips

When this option is enabled, clips that are cut into multiple pieces in your sequence are automatically merged into a single entry, as long as there is no break between them. If the tool finds the same clip on multiple tracks, they will also be merged and displayed as a single entry.

Use frame handles to find & merge identical clips

Use this option to join clips even if there is a gap between them. You can define a range of 1 to 500 frames to be covered. If the tool finds the same clip on multiple tracks, they will also be merged and displayed as a single entry.

Vorlage

Du kannst die Spalten in den Exportdateien individuell anpassen. Wähle aus mehreren öffentlichen Vorlagen oder drücke das Plus-Zeichen, um deine eigene Vorlage zu erstellen. Es gibt unzählige Möglichkeiten für die Anzeige von Timecodes, Längen und individuellen Metadaten. Um Vorlagen zu speichern, musst du eingeloggt sein.
