Getting Started

Welcome to KueIt Mobile: "The ultimate real-time audio playback software", uniquely designed for your sound effects, audio drops & jingles. KueIt Mobile allows you to create profiles of your audio layout and trigger them with zero delay. This manual contains detailed information on how to customize your layout and setup your audio to be triggered in a live setting. This Getting Started section will help you get your first sound loaded and understand the flow on how the app works.

KueIt Mobile is supported for both iOS and Android devices (phones and tablets)

Step 1. Go Into Edit Mode

When you launch KueIt Mobile for the first time, you will be shown a Welcome Screen. After viewing the Welcome Screen you will be redirected to the Live Screen. This is where you can begin to load your audio. You will notice the app instructing you to tap the Edit button. Go ahead and tap the Edit button to continue.

Step 2. Load Audio

Next, you will see 20 blank pads ready to be loaded. Tap on any of the blank pads to load an audio track to.

By default, you are only able to tap on the 1st pad. You will need to upgrade to the Pro Plan in order to use more pads.

You will be given the loading options: From Device, From iCloud or Dropbox, and From KueIt Cloud. Select any one of the options to load audio. The audio will load to the pad and will open the Editor Screen.

• iCloud is only offered on iOS devices
• Dropbox can be used via the From Device option on Android devices
• Accessing the KueIt Cloud is only supported on the Pro Plan

Step 3. Edit the Pad

When the Editor Screen is shown, KueIt will start drawing the waveform for you. Depending on the audio size, this can take a few seconds. Once completed, the audio will Auto-Kue the start point to the beginning of the first sound detected in the file. In this Editor Screen, you can select a pad color, font color, play mode, display name, volume, start and end points. Go ahead and tap the checkmark at the top right corner of the screen to apply the audio track to the pad. Then, tap on the Done button at the top of the Live Screen to finish Edit Mode and go back to Live Mode.

Step 4. Trigger the Audio

Now your pad is loaded and ready to be triggered. Go ahead and tap the pad to play the audio. When it plays, you will notice the frame color around the pad will be green (the frame will begin to flash red if there is 5 seconds or less left to play in the audio track). The display will change to a larger countdown clock and will count down the amount of time left playing in the audio track.

To quickly stop the audio, you can tap the pad with 2 fingers (2 finger gesture), or tap the Stop All button at the top of the screen. When playing more than 1 audio file simultaneously, tapping with 3 fingers (3 finger gesture) will stop all playing tracks.

If you would like to go back to the Editor Screen for the current pad, tap on the Edit button, then the loaded pad. Tapping an empty pad in Edit Mode will allow you to add more audio files, as described in Step 2.


Creating a Profile

KueIt allows you to configure your audio pads, colors and layout; it also allows you to have multiple profiles. Each profile has its own configuration of pads. You can have as many profiles as you like. KueIt comes installed with a default profile, but you may rename this profile or add more.

To create a new profile, tap the Profile icon located at the bottom navigation bar and then tap the + icon located at the top right corner. A pop-up box will open allowing you to enter a new profile name. Once you type in your new profile name, tap Add to finish creating the profile. KueIt will automatically switch to the Live screen.

Adding more profiles is only supported on the Pro Plan

Loading a Profile

To load a profile, simply tap the profile name. KueIt will switch to the Live screen and start loading all your audio to the appropriate pads

Renaming a Profile

To rename a profile, tap the three dots icon located to the right of the profile name, then tap the Edit Name option. A pop-up box will open allowing you to edit the profile name. Tap Submit to apply the change.

Deleting a Profile

To delete a profile, tap the three dots icon located to the right of the profile name, then tap the Delete option. A pop-up box will open asking if you to confirm the deletion. Tap Yes to confirm.

Please note that this cannot be undone. Proceed with caution


Editor Screen

The Editor Screen is where you configure the audio clip for playback. You can also change how the pad is displayed, such as the display name, pad and font colors. To open the Editor Screen you must first be in Edit Mode.

To go into edit mode, tap on Edit in the top bar of the Live screen.

Then, tap on any pad. Tapping on an empty pad will allow you to load audio to it. Tapping an already loaded pad will open the Editor Screen with the current pad's configuration.

Tap any of the items in the list that corresponds to the image below to see more detailed information

Loading Audio

To load audio, make sure you are first in Edit Mode. Then, tap on any empty pad (pads that have the add music icon). You will be given the loading options: From Device, From iCloud or Dropbox, and From KueIt Cloud. Select any one of the options to load audio. The audio will load to the pad and Auto-Kue the start point to the beginning of the first sound detected in the file. At this point, you can select a pad color, font color, play mode, display name, volume, start and end points.

• iCloud is only offered on iOS devices
• Dropbox can be used via the From Device option on Android devices
• Accessing the KueIt Cloud is only supported on the Pro Plan

Removing Audio

There are 2 ways to remove audio from a pad:

1. While in Edit Mode, you can drag the pad to the top or bottom

2. In the Editor Screen, tap on the button at the top to remove the audio file from the desired pad

Please note that this cannot be undone. Proceed with caution

Selecting the Start Point, End Point, and Looping

Most audio files have a bit of dead air in the beginning of the file. KueIt allows you to select a start point at the part of the file where the audio begins. This allows for a quicker and much more accurate triggering process. To do this, launch the Editor Screen. KueIt will begin to draw the waveform of the file. By default, KueIt will use Auto Kue and find the first sound in the audio file and set that as the start point for that audio. If you don't like that start point, read below on how to set a new one:

Setting a start point: Use the waveform to find the position you would like to set the starting point. Use the zoom buttons to zoom in the waveform for more precision. Tap on the button to set the start point.

Setting an end point: Use the waveform to find the position you would like to set the end point. Use the zoom buttons to zoom in the waveform for more precision. Tap on the button to set the end point.

Looping the audio: Once you have set the start and end points, you can tap the button to toggle looping on or off.

If looping is on, the audio will loop infinitely within the start and end points until you stop the audio manually. The pad will also show a ↻ symbol under the display name.

Using the Waveform Display

The waveform display helps you to set your start and end points. You can tap or scrub in the smaller 'gray' waveform box by moving inside it to position the play cursor. As you scrub, you will see the larger 'blue' waveform box update to the cursor playing point. You can drag the larger waveform display left or right to move the cursor playing point. You can use a 2 finger gesture to pinch-to-zoom the waveform, or tap the zoom buttons below the waveform

Selecting the Play Mode

In the Editor Screen, you can select one of the four play modes: Trigger, Toggle Play/Stop, Toggle Play/Fade or Sticky.

Here are the descriptions for each play mode:

Trigger Sets the pad to always replay the audio from the set start point
Toggle Play/Stop Sets the pad to toggle Play/Stop. Tap once to play, again to stop the audio
Toggle Play/Fade Sets the pad to toggle Play/Fade. Tap once to play, again to Fade out the audio.
Sticky Sets the pad to play audio for as long as the pad is held down. Audio will stop once the pad has been released

Adjusting the Audio Volume

In the Editor Screen, use the slide to adjust the volume. You can adjust the volume from 0% to 300%. Tap on the volume icon to reset it back to 100%.

You can also adjust the volume on the fly while a pad is currently playing. In Edit Mode, tap on the playing pad and a volume box will open

Using the Transport Controls

In the Editor Screen, you can manipulate the audio by using the transport controls, such as playing and stopping the audio.

Here are the descriptions for each control:

Jump to start Sets the play cursor to beginning of the audio file
Play Starts playback from the cursor position
Pause Pauses the audio at cursor position
Stop Stops the audio, and cues position to start point
Jump to end Sets the play cursor to end of the audio file

Edit The Pad Display

You can customize the look of your pads in your layout

To edit the pad's display, you can:

Edit the display name
Choose pad and font color

Selecting the Pad's Display Name

The display name will default to the filename of the audio that is loaded to the pad; however, once the audio is selected, you can choose to change the display name to whatever you desire.

At the top of the Editor Screen, type the display name. You can tap the x icon to clear the name

Selecting the Pad & Font Color

In the Editor Screen, tap on the square color buttons. A color picker will open.

The color box on the left changes the color of the pad's background. The color box on the right changes the pad's font color.

You can choose one of the default colors at the top or touch anywhere on the ring to get a start color. Then, drag around the triangle to get the shade you like. When done, tap on the checkmark icon at the top right

Using KueIt

When you launch KueIt, your last used profile will be auto-loaded. You can:

Create a new profile
Load another profile
Play audio files

Playing an Audio File

To play audio, simply tap on any pad that has audio loaded to it

Stopping an Audio File

There are a few different ways to stop an audio file from playing after it has been triggered. To manually stop a specific audio file from playing, trigger the audio pad again with 2 fingers (if 2 Finger To Stop is enabled in Settings). If your pad's playmode is set to Toggle, then tapping the pad again will stop it.

To Stop All audio from playing, you can hit the Stop All button at the top bar, or tap the screen with 3 fingers at the same time (if 3 Finger To Stop All is enabled in Settings).

See Selecting A Playmode for directions on how to set your Play Mode.

Master Levels

On the Live KueIt screen, you will see the Master Levels strip at the top. The levels are divided into 3 colored segments:

Highest peak level is sustained in the display for a brief second so that it is easier to check the peak


Dragging Options

You can drag loaded pads to other pads on the main screen for additional options. Dragging actions include:

Dragging a Pad to a Blank Pad

Single Play Mode will only allow you to play one file at a time. If an audio file is playing and you trigger another file, it will begin playing in place of the first file

Multi play mode is the default
