Upload the .docx file from production as it is. CueSetter reads the table, finds the columns for number, time and title, and gives you a grandMA3 macro that builds one named cue per item.

What it reads
What CueSetter reads in a Word run sheet
- 1
Tables, merged cells too
Columns are found from the header row. Merged cells and several lines in one cell are fine.
- 2
Several tables
If the document has more than one table, for example one per day, choose the one for the show.
- 3
No table at all
A run sheet written as lines, like “18:30 Doors open”, is read line by line, the same way as pasted text.
- 4
The title becomes the sequence name
The first line above the table, usually the name of the show, is used as the sequence name. You can change it before export.
How it works
From Word to the console
- Cue 1GO
Upload the .docx file
Drop the file into CueSetter. If the document has several tables, choose the one for the show.
- Cue 2GO
Check the columns and cues
The columns found are marked. Pick another if one is wrong, then edit names and split a set list into sub-cues.
- Cue 3GO
Import on grandMA3
Unzip the macro to the root of a USB stick. In Show Creator, choose Macros and the stick, import it and run it once. The sequence is built with one named cue per item.
And on every format
Why operators use it
Cue numbers follow the run sheet
Item 12 becomes cue 12 on the console. A set list splits into sub-cues (12.1, 12.2) in one click, and items without a number fit in between their neighbours.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
How do I get a Word run sheet into grandMA3?
grandMA3 imports macros as XML files. CueSetter reads the Word document and makes a grandMA3 macro: import it from a USB stick and run it once, and the sequence is built with one named cue per item.
Can I use .doc files?
Old .doc files can’t be read. Open the file in Word and save it as .docx, or export it as PDF, and try again.
Is the file uploaded to a server?
No. The file is read in your browser on your own computer and is never sent to us or any other server.
