8月30日 的 Sound Script 應用程式分析

General annotation apps weren’t built for sound departments. This one was. Import a PDF, mark it up with purpose-built theatre sound tools, then run your show directly from the app. MARKUP TOOLS DCA Assignments: Mark DCA assignments right where they happen in the script. Choose from plain or circled numbers. Independent On and Off layers let you mark mute moments separately from mic-on moments. Console Cues: Place and number your console cues directly on the script. Choose from sequential, page-based, or custom labels. SFX Cues: A separate cue track for your QLab or playback system, independent of your console cues. Cue Links: Draw lines or brackets from cues to their go-points, or place a break line beneath a cue. Each link stays attached to its parent cue. Verb Levels: Mark reverb levels and changes. Band Levels: Place fader level markers on the page to show where band levels change. Pair with symbols to show swells, fades and other movements. Highlights: Colour-mark dialogue, lyrics, or stage directions so they stand out at a glance. Cover: Hide stage directions, scene notes, or anything else you don’t want on the page. Covers stay transparent while you’re editing, then become solid in Show Mode and exports. Notes: Add floating text notes for reminders, warnings, or operator instructions. Choose plain or boxed notes and resize each independently. Flags: Drop colour-coded markers at key moments in the script. After a rehearsal or show, open the Flags list to jump straight back to every point you flagged. Perfect for tracking notes, reminders and moments that need attention. Shapes: Frame, group, or point to content on the page with rectangles, circles, lines, arrows and brackets. Symbols: Place common symbols directly onto the script, including standby and go markers, mic kills, swell and fade arrows. Freehand Drawing: Sketch, underline, write, or scribble anywhere on the page. Choose from thin, medium or thick stroke widths, and use the eraser to clean up. SHOW MODE When it’s showtime, switch to Show Mode for a clean, full-screen performance view. Editing tools are hidden so there’s nothing to accidentally tap during a show. A Next Cue indicator previews the next cue on the following page. Quick Flags and freehand drawing remain available for live notes during the performance. MIDI PAGE TURNING Assign any MIDI message to page forward and back using the built-in Learn function. Connect any MIDI controller and keep your hands on the desk where they belong. KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS Connect a hardware keyboard for single-key tool switching, DCA chip toggles, delete, page turning, and ⌘Z undo/redo. Full shortcut list in Settings. SMART PLACEMENT Annotations snap-align to nearby items as you place and drag them, keeping your markup clean and consistent without slowing you down. YOUR SCRIPTS Every script you open lives in one place. Search, sort, rename, duplicate, share or delete scripts from your library, with page thumbnails to help you find what you’re looking for. Deleted scripts stay in Recently Deleted for 30 days. EXPORT Export your script as a fully editable Sound Script Bundle to share with another Sound Script user, a baked PDF with every annotation permanently stamped onto the page, or a CSV cue list for your team. BACKUPS Sound Script automatically creates rolling backups as you work, so you can restore an earlier version at any time. Turn on iCloud Backup to keep your scripts and markup backed up across your devices. CUSTOMISATION Set default colours for every tool to match your personal markup style. Adjust note font sizes and DCA display style. Choose continuous scroll or page-turn view. Set the page your script body starts on so cue numbers and the scrubber align with your script. Sound Script adapts to the way you already work. Built by a theatre soundie, for theatre soundies.
