Professional show control, built for Windows first.

A cue stack that runs the sound and drives the rig, fired from a keyboard, a footswitch, a desk or another program — with the same showfile on Windows, macOS and Linux.

Free and open source under the MIT licence: every feature, on every machine, with no key.

The Cuerunner window with the demo show open: cue list, cue inspector, timeline and the GO transport
The demo show, ready to run: the cue list, the inspector for the selected cue, and GO.

What it does

Cue stack

Audio, MIDI, OSC, show control, network, script, fade, wait, stop, group and devamp cues — with timelines, triggers and advance modes.

Timing

Playback runs in a native engine, so the sound outlives the window: a renderer can die mid-show and the show keeps playing. The soak's own numbers are on the reliability page.

Showfile

Deterministic saves with history in the file, compare and three-way merge between two people's copies, and one bundle that carries the media.

Every cue type, with its fields, is in the reference; Your first show builds one from nothing.

The dock

The wireless panel: twelve packs with names, battery and RF bars, sorted with the pack in trouble at the top.
Radio mics and packs: names, battery, RF — and the pack in trouble at the top.
The wireless report: each pack with its lowest battery, worst RF and any swaps during the session.
The report the session leaves behind: lowest battery, worst RF, every swap.
