About this tool
The Session Cue Sheet builds a broadcast-ready document listing every piece of music used in a film, TV episode, ad, or podcast — with titles, composers, publishers, ISRC codes, timecodes, and usage types. Submit it to performing rights organizations (ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, PRS) so writers and publishers get paid for each sync. Export as text or print directly to PDF.
FAQ
What is a cue sheet for?+
It is the official log of every piece of music in an audiovisual work. Broadcasters and streaming services hand them to performing rights organizations so royalties can be paid accurately to writers and publishers.
What goes in the Usage field?+
The role the music plays on screen. "Background Instrumental" for underscore, "Feature Vocal" for a song that takes the foreground, "Visual Vocal" if an on-camera performer is singing, "Theme" for opening or closing titles, and so on.
What format should timecodes use?+
HH:MM:SS or HH:MM:SS:FF (with frames) is standard. Be consistent across a single sheet and match whatever your delivery spec requires.
Do I need an ISRC for every cue?+
Only for commercially released recordings. Original score composed for the project usually does not have one. Leave it blank if it does not apply.
How do I export this to PDF?+
Click "Print / Save PDF" — your browser’s print dialog can save the rendered sheet as a PDF. The controls and nav are hidden in the print view so you get a clean table.
