Must-play and do-not-play alerts, live on the night.

On Cue sits on top of your DJ software while you play. It reads the track you’re on and puts the client’s plan around it: every section of the night, their must-plays ticked off as you play them, and a warning the moment a do-not-play is loaded. It’s part of Set Ready, the free desktop app included with every account.

14 days free with every feature. Then £27/month plus tax for three DJs.

Making the invisible visible

The one song they asked you not to play.

It’s eleven o’clock, the floor is full, and someone at the booth asks for a song. You play it. It was on the do-not-play list the couple filled in back in March.

Nobody can hold forty requests and a banned list in their head while they’re mixing. You shouldn’t have to.

On Cue keeps the plan on screen and checks every track you load against it, so the promises made in the planning meeting are kept on the night.

How it works

Open it, play, and it keeps up.

1

Open it at the gig

Load the event in Set Ready and open On Cue. It docks beside your DJ software, with the client’s plan in one column.

2

It reads what you play

Must-plays tick themselves off as you play them. Load a do-not-play and On Cue warns you, before it goes out.

3

Shrink it when you want the screen

Minimise it to a round button in the corner. It flashes red if the loaded track is a do-not-play.

The plan

Every section of the night, in order.

The client’s timeline sits in one column beside your decks, with times and song counts. Tap a section to see its songs and notes.

Do not play

Warned before it goes out.

The do-not-play list is always in view. Load one of those songs and On Cue shows a red warning naming it, before it goes out.

Minimised

Out of the way until it matters.

Shrink On Cue to a button in the corner of the screen. When the loaded track is a do-not-play, it flashes red.

Missing Gems in On Cue suggesting twelve unplayed tracks from the DJ library that match the song playing
Missing Gems

Music you forgot you owned.

Every DJ has a huge library and plays a fraction of it. On Cue sees what you’re playing and suggests tracks you own that fit, ones you haven’t played in a long time. Same vibe, switch it up, or a curveball.

What’s in it

The plan, kept on the night.

The whole night on screen

Every section of the event with its times, the client’s songs and their notes, beside your decks.

Must-plays ticked off

Highlighted in the plan and ticked off by themselves as you play them, so no promised song is left unplayed.

Do-not-play warnings

Highlighted in the plan, and flagged the moment one is loaded on a deck.

A button that flashes red

Minimised, On Cue waits in the corner of the screen and flashes red when a do-not-play is loaded.

Missing Gems

Live ideas from your own library: tracks you haven’t played in a long time that fit what’s on now.

Part of Set Ready

The free desktop app for Windows and Mac, included with every account. Nothing extra to buy.

“…Set Ready hooking in so you can match every song to your DJ library, with must-play / do-not-play alerts at the gig. 100% nothing on the market offers all these features at this price.”

Anything else, just ask us.

The live side of Set Ready. While you play, it reads the track you’re on and shows the client’s plan around it: the sections of the night, their must-plays and their do-not-plays.
Yes. Must-plays are highlighted and ticked off automatically as you play them, so you never end the night with a promised song unplayed.
On Cue shows a red warning with the song, before it goes out. If you’ve minimised it, the button in the corner of the screen flashes red.
Live ideas while you play. On Cue sees what’s playing and suggests tracks from your own library that fit, ones you haven’t played in a long time. Not the tracks you play every week. The ones you forgot you owned.
No. It’s part of Set Ready, the free desktop app for Windows and Mac that comes with every Planning Beats account. £27/month plus tax covers three DJs, with 14 days free and no card.
