Cues for the show order.

Build a precise sequence, launch it from transport controls, and let each item prepare the next step of the show.

Audio, stop, MIDI, and OSC cues in the same list.
Pre-wait, post-wait, play-next, loop, trim, fades, and crossfades.
Keep the armed cue visible even when the list is scrolled.

Node:Cue Cuelist view with generic demo cues — Real Node:Cue interface with Now Playing, bus routing, and a visible waveform.

Pads for instant material.

Keep jingles, stingers, atmospheres, and one-shot sounds ready without leaving the main show interface.

Pages of pads with names, colors, images, loops, and re-click behavior.
Trigger from mouse, keyboard, MIDI, OSC, or Stream Deck.
Route pads to their own bus while cues and playlist keep playing.

Node:Cue Pads view with generic colored pads — Real pads page with generic labels, colors, selected-pad recall, and playlist sidebar.

Playlist for continuous playback.

Run a music bed or interval playlist while cues and pads stay available for live interventions.

Active tracks, trim-aware total duration, loop mode, overlap, and auto-trim.
Fade from a cue into the playlist, or fade the playlist out to return to cues.
Use a dedicated playlist bus for clean routing to another output device.
