Cue generation & cue profile
Set cues for many tracks at once: with the standard template or a personal cue profile that learns from your own examples.

Prepare cuesLink to “Prepare cues”
- Select tracks and choose right-click → “Generate cue points”, or “Generate template” under “Cues & Loops”, or Tools → “Cue generator …”.
- In the “Prepare cues” dialogue, choose the “Template”.
- Review the preview: for each track, every new cue with slot, name, time and reason. Tracks can be excluded by unticking them.
- “Apply (one undo step)”.
TemplatesLink to “Templates”
- Default (intro, mix in, mix out, emergency)
- Sets “Intro · 16 Bars”, “Mix In · 32 Bars”, “Mix Out · 32 Bars” and “Emergency · 16 Beats” (a 16-beat loop).
- Personal cue profile
- Sets cues the way you set them in your example tracks (see below).
- Plugin templates
- Your own templates from plugins.
What is keptLink to “What is kept”
- Existing cues stay unchanged; new cues only occupy free pads A to H.
- Memory cues are only created in addition if “Cue generator: also memory cues” is on in the settings.
- If a track has no stored beatgrid, the cues sit on a grid derived from BPM starting at 0 ms. The preview marks such tracks with “Grid from BPM”.
- Cues that are not set get a reason, such as “No free hot cue slot A–H.” or “Cue already exists.”
Personal cue profileLink to “Personal cue profile”
The profile only learns from tracks you explicitly select, and only from permitted cue sources. Generated cues are never used as examples.
- Select at least three example tracks with a stored beatgrid.
- In the “Personal cue profile” section under “Allow as examples”, tick “Your own manual cues” and/or “Imported cues”.
- “Learn from selection”. Sonodex then shows, for example, “5 rules from 12 example tracks”.
Each rule needs at least three matching examples. The profile anchors to drops and sections; if you have corrected a track’s structure, it uses your correction. “Pause profile”, “Resume profile” and “Delete profile” control it; “Recent learning runs” shows the history.
