CueDeck: Live Backing Tracks

Ditch the complex DAWs and expensive monthly subscriptions. CueDeck is the ultimate backing track and click player designed specifically for the stage.

Built for gigging musicians, worship leaders, drummers, and music directors, CueDeck gives you the power of a professional multi-track audio engine in a simple interface. Just load your stems, map your MIDI pedal, and hit play.

THE CUEDECK ADVANTAGE:
No subscriptions. No renting your software. You can use CueDeck for free to build and play up to 3-song setlists with absolutely zero feature restrictions. Ready to run a full-length show? Unlock CueDeck Pro for a one-time purchase and own it forever on both iPad and Mac.

PRO-LEVEL AUDIO ROUTING
Connecting a USB audio interface? CueDeck automatically separates your mix. Send your stereo backing tracks to the Front of House (Outputs 1 & 2), and route your Click and Guide tracks exclusively to your band’s in-ear monitors (Outputs 3 & 4).

ROCK-SOLID CUSTOM AUDIO ENGINE
Under the hood, CueDeck is powered by a custom C++ audio engine designed for zero-latency, sample-accurate playback. Transients fire perfectly on the grid, ensuring your band’s metronome never drifts.

PITCH SHIFTING
Need to drop a song down a half-step? CueDeck’s high-quality phase vocoder allows you to change the key of your tracks on the fly. Best of all, the engine safely isolates your Click and Guide tracks—so your metronome stays punchy and your cue voice never sounds like a chipmunk.

SMART AMBIENT DRONE PADS
Fill the dead air between songs. CueDeck features built-in, studio-quality ambient pads that automatically map to the key of your current song. Crossfade pads seamlessly between tracks to keep the atmosphere alive.

HANDS-FREE MIDI CONTROL
Keep your hands on your instrument. CueDeck features a custom MIDI learn engine. Simply plug in any standard Bluetooth page-turner or MIDI foot switch, tap "Learn," and map your pedals to Play, Stop, Next, and Previous.

EFFORTLESS IMPORTING
Getting your tracks into CueDeck is brilliantly simple. Just ZIP your uncompressed .WAV stems and name the file (e.g., "Song Title [Key-BPM-TimeSig].zip"). CueDeck automatically extracts the metadata and builds the song for you.
