Record on any camera: the booth, a phone in the balcony, a camcorder on the deck. Afterwards Go2Cue lines it all up with every cue and every rehearsal note, by itself. Click a note, and the playhead jumps to that moment. No more scrubbing through footage.
Record the way you already do. Using OBS? Go2Cue adds a live overlay of the cues, and can start the recording for you.

CUES AND NOTES
After the rehearsal, Go2Cue lines every recording up by itself, four ways:
It uses whichever it finds first, for each camera on its own. No clapper, no timecode, no fiddling in an editor.
With OBSConnect OBS once, in Settings (OBS connection), and Go2Cue starts each recording with the run timer, so it knows the moment it began. Start and Stop recording are there too.
The overlayThe overlay in OBS puts a time stamp in every frame, beside the cues. Trim it or re-export it and it still lines up.
A digital slateAny camera, even a phone: hold up the digital slate, on another phone, for a few seconds.
The soundTurn Listening on once, in Settings: Go2Cue matches any camera's sound to what the stage manager's computer heard, to within a frame. Nothing to do on the night.
The overlay, in OBS
The cues, on the recording.
Go2Cue puts the overlay on your OBS picture for you: each desk's cue and NEXT, the standbys, who's talking, and the run time, in every recording.
The squares in the corner are a time stamp that lines the video up later, however it's cut.
Every note, at its moment
Every note sits on the timeline where it was taken: "42 is too blue" opens on cue 42.
0:48DIRECTORJuliet: cheat out on the balcony line.
1:25LX42 is too blue. Warm the cyc.
2:05SMFly cue late: call it on the breath.
Every cue, as it ran
Every GO and standby is on the timeline too: check the call against the picture.
