The Cut - Track Screening

The Cut is the fastest way for DJs and music A&Rs to get through their promo inbox.

Connect an iCloud Drive folder, your SoundCloud account, Dropbox, or an email inbox and start reviewing. Swipe right to accept a track, swipe left to reject it. The Cut remembers every decision and syncs them across all your devices via iCloud.

Review Your Inbox, Fast
Stop losing track of what you've listened to. Every new file lands in your Inbox. Once reviewed, tracks move to Accepted or Rejected — your library stays organised without any manual filing.

Email Sources
Get promos the moment they hit your inbox. Connect any email account over IMAP and The Cut pulls in audio attachments and SoundCloud links automatically, ready to audition alongside the rest of your library.

SoundCloud Integration
Stream tracks directly from your SoundCloud feed. Add or remove tracks from playlists without leaving the app.

Dropbox Integration
Review tracks stored in your Dropbox. Files are cached locally for smooth playback. Move or delete tracks directly from the app — your Dropbox stays in sync.

Never Review the Same Track Twice
Pulling from several sources? The Cut recognises when the same track shows up in more than one place and merges it into a single entry — review it once, and your decision applies across every source it came from.

Apple Watch Companion
Take your inbox on the go. Browse, sort, filter, rate, add notes, and control playback from your wrist. Smart Stack widgets and complications surface your latest track instantly.

CarPlay
Review your inbox from the car. Your Inbox appears on the car's display, and Accept and Reject sit right on the Now Playing screen — decide, and the next track starts.

Filter Down to the Right Tracks
Filter any list by source, genre, BPM, musical key, star rating, and date added. Stack filters to zero in on exactly what you're looking for.

Rich Metadata at a Glance
The Cut reads ID3 and MP4 tags so you can see title, artist, BPM, musical key, genre, and album artwork before you even hit play. Star ratings are visible right in the track list. Make smarter decisions faster.

Add Notes to Tracks
Jot down thoughts on any track — who sent it, what stood out, or where you want to play it.

Automate Your Workflow
Configure actions that fire the moment you make a decision. Move accepted tracks to a folder automatically. Delete rejected files from your drive without lifting a finger. Build the workflow that fits how you work.

Reminders
Pick the days and times you like to review and The Cut nudges you when tracks are waiting — and stays quiet when your Inbox is empty or you've already been reviewing.

See Your Reviewing at a Glance
A Statistics dashboard shows how you review — accepts, rejects, and what's still pending, broken down by source and over time. Spot your habits, track your progress, and share a summary card in a tap.

A Proper Audio Player
Full playback controls, a waveform you can scrub to jump straight to the drop, AirPlay output, shuffle, repeat, and lock screen integration so you can keep reviewing without unlocking your phone. Tracks start instantly thanks to smart pre-loading, and you can share any track in a tap. Using a keyboard on iPad? Accept, reject, rate, and skip without touching the screen.

Syncs Everywhere
Your library, decisions, and ratings sync across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch via iCloud — start reviewing on your phone, continue on your Mac.
