### 5/5 — Hidden gems

*2022-08-04, version 1.2.8*

At first I was disappointed because I could not upload files directly from my iMac. That would be a really good feature.Another would be individual track volume control limits.
.

However, as I continue to explore the app and play with it through Dropbox, it became more and more interesting. I'm really beginning to enjoy this and I'm giving it five stars for now because I believe the developer is very conscientious and reads this. And if you do, drop over for a beer and a burger.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2022-06-22, version 1.2.8*

As a pro musician I use several backing track apps to use on gigs and this is the best I've found. Playlists can be imported directly from the iPad music app.
The most useful feature for me is that each song in a playlist can be individually set to stop at the end, run on to the next track, repeat or be skipped entirely which makes it easy to adjust for individual gigs. There are also cross fade and fade out options and individual volume controls for each track-very useful as a lot of commercial backing tracks run at different levels.
All in all very impressed and the developer response to queries was extremely helpful

### 5/5 — A perfect fit for my needs

*2022-02-18, version 1.2.7*

I was on the hunt for a new app to manage audio for a performance group I volunteer with. I can’t overstate how happy I am that I gave Cue Master a try!  It does everything needed for our performance, and does it in a way that makes absolutely perfect sense.  On top of that, the developer is incredibly responsive and great to work with.  Within a week of me installing the app, he released two updates for things I had emailed him about.  One was a feature request, which he did within the first day and the other was a very small bug that definitely could have waited to be fixed, but he took care of it immediately.  Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Cue Master

*2021-11-06, version 1.2.3*

5 stars is not enough. I’ve used other apps to make set lists, but Cue Master is by far the best. The interface is easy to use and feels familiar immediately. I’ve had no glitches or crashes. The only thing that bothered me initially was the “click” I would hear in between songs. Ends up that the sound was a silent track put there  to keep bluetooth devices from disconnecting on some devices. The author quickly remedied the problem by making the feature switchable. Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — I love this app!!!

*2021-09-15, version 1.2.3*

Best app I have found for performance purposes!  It allows you to download the music to your device and not depend on internet access to play your music. You can adjust volumes to individual tracks. Playlist are easy to set up and get in the order you prefer.

### 5/5 — Simple and awesome.

*2020-06-01, version 1.2.3*

Using it with me Used Using it with my band play Beck

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2020-02-09, version 1.2.3*

I am a drummer and I'm responsible for playing backing tracks for our band.
This app has made my life so much easier. It has every feature I could ask for.
Perfect in every way!!

### 5/5 — Always love great support!

*2020-02-09, version 1.2.2*

This app does exactly what I need to manage and play sound effects during our theatre play.

I found a “bug” in Dark mode where track names don’t appear in black in the edit view. I used the feedback button to let the developer know. 5 minutes later Kevin responded with the work around that resolved my issue! That’s quality support I greatly appreciate!! You deserve the 5 stars. Next release should resolve this bug. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Perfetta!

*2019-11-15*

Era l’applicazione che cercavo da anni! Prima di conoscere Cue Master, nei miei concerti live usavo un piccolo lettore Mp3, ma con Cue Master e iPad è tutta un’altra storia. Mi ha risolto tutti i problemi di mandare le basi nei live. Funziona benissimo, comodo e ben progettato. Assolutamente affidabile.

### 1/5 — No support!

*2024-06-25, version 1.3.3*

Problems and troubleshooting have no support!

### 3/5 — Feature bugged

*2019-09-05, version 1.2.1*

“Add Track” feature not working in playlists currently. Otherwise, a nice app.

### 4/5 — Solid 4 rating

*2022-12-07, version 1.2.10*

The only issue for me is that you have to manually trigger the crossfade function. I messaged the developer who quickly responded and said this function would go on the future plan board for possible inclusion. Very simple platform, worth the $15 as is but if/when the crossfade issue is addressed it’s a real winner. Def 4/5 as is. Robert

### 5/5 — Great for live theater

*2025-08-20, version 1.3.3*

I have been using this app to play sound cues at our local community theater for years. It’s super easy to import a playlist from iTunes then all my cues are there ready to go. Very responsive and has never crashed on me. It is essential when I design sound for a show

### 5/5 — Simple et efficace

### 5/5 — How do I change my playlist title?

*2023-10-30, version 1.3.2*

Hello Kevin,
I love this app.  I only have one question, how do I change my playlist title?  I tapped on the edit button but that didn’t work.
Thanks,
Steve Jarrell

### 5/5 — Perfect! Does exactly what I needed

*2023-08-24, version 1.2.10*

I have a children’s theater troupe and I needed to be able to control sound effects from on stage with a Bluetooth remote. This works great! Easy to use. Very intuitive. Absolutely worth the price😄

### 5/5 — Best app for duos seeking big band backing

*2023-08-15, version 1.2.10*

I’ve been playing live since the 60s but eventually, everyone takes a break or slows down. From a quintet to a quartet to a trio and now a duo, I’m still able to create sequences with a full band sound to stay in it, using a minidisc player. But that was cumbersome so I thought I’d put tracks on my iPad. But how to make it work without having to push STOP at the end of the track. Searched everywhere until I found Cue Master! WOW!! My buddy and I sound like our old quintet!! Easy operation, transfer from my Library to Cue Master, stop after each track, adjust volume of each track individually, rearrange tracks with ease, just about everything you need for a live performance. The best software for any sequence combo. Thanks, Kevin Arnold, for a truly great product. What will you think of next??

### 5/5 — Straight to the point

*2023-05-08, version 1.2.10*

Love this app, easy to use, minimalist, all features needed at one tap!!!

### 5/5 — Stop and volume control are the most important features

*2023-01-29, version 1.2.10*

I downloaded Cue Master on my iPad, specifically to have individual tracks stop during performances, and it does that well. A bonus is that I can set volumes for each track so I don’t have to handle that before loading tracks into the program. The interface is easy to understand and I can easily import songs or folders from Dropbox. I had an issue with a delay on my speaker, but the issue was resolved. I contacted the developed and he responded instantly! Stunning! Cue Master is totally worth it.

### 5/5 — Does what it says

*2023-01-01, version 1.2.10*

So far, so good! Good job on app ;)

### 5/5 — CueMaster

*2022-12-15, version 1.2.10*

Great program. Exactly what I need for my gigs. Making up my sets as a breeze.

### 5/5 — Is this Sound Cue

*2022-09-14, version 1.2.8*

I recently lost my Sound Cue app on my iPhone and it is no longer available in the App Store.  I found this app and it seems to work perfectly for my needs.  Just curious if this is a new and improved version of Sound Cue.
