Build the show. Cueify runs it.
One Android tablet becomes a complete show system. Create a karaoke night, a live performance set list, or a kiosk that runs itself all day — each with its own running order, its own AI host and its own lighting — then hand over the evening.
One tablet. No PC. No laptop on the bar.
🎪 Any number of shows, saved separately
🎤 AI host between every song
🎙️ Antares Auto-Tune, key found for you
🤖 Kiosk avatar that answers out loud
📱 Guests queue from their phones
🎛️ DMX, mixers & vocal FX
◆ The show creator
Everything starts with a show
A show in Cueify is a whole evening saved in one place — its running order, its host's voice, its lighting scenes, its screen layout, its volumes. Build as many as you like, switch between them in a tap, and let one start on its own when the tablet powers up.
Live Performance
A set list you build in advance and drive from the tablet.
- Drag the running order into shape
- Play, pause, restart, fade to the next
- Video shrinks so the controls stay up
- Change it mid-show without losing it
Kiosk
An unattended screen that greets people and answers them.
- Loops all day with no staff
- An avatar that answers questions aloud
- Visitors choose their own language
- Starts itself when the tablet powers on

And a fourth, quieter one: Karaoke Practice
A self-service rehearsal room. The song library sits permanently on screen, the levels are one tap away, and there's no host, no announcements and no queue to wait in.
One show running. Every other show sits ready beside it.
Each show keeps its own everything
Shows don't share settings, so the Tuesday practice room can't quietly rewrite your Saturday night. Set one up the way you want it and it stays that way.
- ✓Its own running order. Each show carries its own list of cues, kept between sessions — not a queue you rebuild every week.
- ✓Its own voice and avatar. A different host, speed and language per show, with its own announcement scripts.
- ✓Its own lighting scenes. Scene libraries are per show, so a corporate stand and a karaoke night never share a look.
- ✓Its own screen. Sidebar, navigation bar, slideshow, background music and guest tabs are all set by the show type, then adjustable.
- ✓Duplicate one to start the next. Copy a show, rename it, change the bits that differ — the lighting scenes come with it.
- ✓Back the lot up to a file. Every show, every setting, in one snapshot you can carry to another venue and restore.
◆ Show type — Karaoke Night
It runs the night, so you can work the room
Guests queue from their own phones. Between songs, Cueify introduces the next singer by name — as a studio-quality voice, or as a video host on the big screen — then rolls the track and gets out of the way.
The whole loop: idle screen, host introduces the singer, song takes the screen.
A song ends, and the next singer is already being introduced.
It introduces every singer, so you don't have to
It reads the queue, knows the song and the artist, and never runs out of things to say. You write the lines once — or use the ones it ships with — and it fills in the names.
- ✓Real voices, not robot speech. Browse hundreds of voices with audio previews and pick your host's sound in a couple of taps.
- ✓A face on the screen. Announcements can play as a live video host with a replaceable background, instead of just audio.
- ✓Speaks your room's language. Tick more than one language and each announcement is spoken in every one, in turn — names and song titles left intact.
- ✓Titles cleaned up automatically. Messy karaoke filenames are parsed into a proper song title and artist, so announcements read correctly.
- ✓Never talks over the music. Announcements wait for the track to finish, every time.
- ✓It knows when a song was cut short. Stop a track early and it says something that fits, rather than congratulating a performance that didn't happen.
Your guests' phones. Nothing to install.
Your guests queue themselves
A QR code sits on the screen all night. Guests scan it, search your library, put their name to a song and watch the queue move — from their own phone, over your Wi-Fi, with nothing to download.
- ✓Your library and YouTube, together. If you don't own it, they can still queue it — streamed straight away, or downloaded for next time.
- ✓Fair rotation. First-timers go ahead of people already on their third song, automatically.
- ✓Nobody can touch the show. Everything that changes settings is behind a host PIN, and you choose which tabs guests see at all.
- ✓Works with the internet down. The tablet serves the guest interface itself — you only need the Wi-Fi.
- ✓"Start my song". A big button the singer taps themselves when they're ready at the mic.
- ✓Who's up, on the wall. The side panel shows the next singer, their song, and photos of the artist.
◆ Sound like a star
Real Antares Auto-Tune — in the right key, automatically
Cueify drives a genuine HeadRush VX5 vocal pedal running the actual Antares Auto-Tune® engine — the same industry-standard pitch correction used on real records — and it dials in the right key for every singer without anyone touching a setting.
It finds the key
Cueify works out what key each song is in and sets the pedal to match, song after song, with nobody at the desk.
One switch
Turn it on for the night from the library screen. Songs with a known key are corrected; the rest play untouched.
Studio hardware
A real pedal in the signal path, not a filter in an app — so it sounds like the records your singers are copying.
◆ Show type — Live Performance
A set list you can actually drive
For a night with a running order: a band's set, a tribute act, a cabaret, an awards evening. Build the list in advance, then run it from a screen designed to be operated mid-show, with a finger, in the dark.
The performance screen — library, set list, scenes and levels, all at once.
Build the order, then leave it alone
Drag songs and videos in from your library on the left, lighting scenes in from the rail on the right, and add a spoken line with a button. Cueify holds that order between sessions, so the set you built on Wednesday is the set that's waiting on Friday.
- ✓Drag to reorder. Move an item with your finger — built for a touchscreen, not a mouse.
- ✓Arm it, don't start it. Arming brings the set up on screen ready to go, in silence. Nothing plays until you press Play.
- ✓Change it live, safely. Move something mid-show and it changes tonight's running order only — the set you actually built is untouched, and it comes back as you wrote it next time you arm.
- ✓Lighting in the running order. Drag a scene straight into the set and the look changes at that exact point — or leave it on the rail and press it when the moment comes.
- ✓Pre-flight check. One tap tells you if a file has gone missing, a lighting scene has been renamed, or a video won't play on this tablet — before the room is watching.
- ✓Notes to yourself. Pin a reminder to any cue as you build it — "wait for the speech to end", "MC intro first" — and it stays on that row all night.
- ✓Set the gap. Choose how long Cueify waits between items, so the set breathes instead of stampeding.
Everything you need while it's running
The performance screen keeps the set list, the announcements, the lighting and the levels all in reach — even while a video is playing.
A real transport
Restart, play, pause, stop — and fade smoothly into the next item when a song has gone on long enough.
Corner the video
Shrink the playing video into the corner and keep the whole control screen usable underneath it.
One-liners on tap
A rail of your own spoken lines, fired between numbers without touching the set list — and spoken in every language you've ticked, one after another.
Scenes on tap
Press a tile to move the lights, the vocal FX and the mixer at once — or drag it into the running order to fire at a set point.
Levels underneath
A drop-down strip with the track and announcer levels, plus real faders for your mixer channels.
Jump anywhere
Play from any point in the list — the rest of the set carries on in order from there.
Reset and go again
Clear the played marks and the whole set is ready to run a second time, in its original order.
Armed at power-on
Set a show to arm itself when the tablet boots, so a reboot mid-evening comes back ready.
◆ Show type — Kiosk
A screen that answers your visitors out loud
Point a kiosk show at your own information and it becomes a talking information desk — for an open day, a showroom, a trade stand, a reception, a property viewing. It runs all day, resets itself for every visitor, and needs nobody standing next to it.
Give it what it should know. It handles the conversation.
They ask. It answers.
A visitor speaks a question at the tablet and the avatar answers them aloud, from the information you gave it — not from the open internet, unless you want that.
- ✓Your facts, your answers. Paste in what it should know, or point it at a web page and it reads that. Switch on "only reference my data" and it will say it doesn't know rather than invent.
- ✓It shows things too. Drop a picture into your notes and the avatar puts it on screen at the moment it mentions it.
- ✓Visitors pick their language. Put a row of flags on the welcome button and the whole conversation happens in the language they tapped — greeting included.
- ✓It knows when to stop. End after a set time, or let it notice the conversation has naturally finished and wrap up politely.
- ✓Loops for the next person. A Push Button cue rewinds the whole presentation and waits, so visitor number forty gets the same welcome as visitor number one.
- ✓Switch it on and walk away. A kiosk show can start on its own when the tablet powers up, and keep going.
◆ Show type — Karaoke Practice
A practice room that runs itself
Walk up, pick a song, sing. No host, no announcements, no queue — the library is just there on the screen, and so are the levels.
Library on the left, live controls on the right — one screen, no host.
Set it up once and leave the room
Practice mode strips the night back to the part a singer actually needs. Everything that exists to help a host run a party is switched off.
- ✓The library, permanently. Songs in artwork tiles, browsable by folder, always on screen.
- ✓Tap a song, it plays. No queueing, no names, no waiting your turn.
- ✓Levels without leaving. A levels panel drops down over the bottom of the screen, mid-song if need be.
- ✓Silence from the host. Announcements are off — nobody wants to be introduced to an empty room.
◆ The building blocks
Seven kinds of cue. One running order.
Songs, announcements, lighting changes, videos and interactive moments all live in a single list, in the order they'll happen. Set a cue to fire automatically, or hold it until you say go. A Kiosk show can use all seven from one picker; the other show types offer the ones that make sense for them.
A Kiosk show's cue editor, where all seven are on offer.
Audio Announcement
A spoken line in your chosen voice, at exactly the right moment.
Video Announcement
The same, delivered by a video host on the big screen.
Interactive Avatar
A live spoken Q&A with your guests, from your own knowledge base.
Set a Scene
Snap the lighting rig, vocal FX and mixer to a named look.
Play Video
Roll a video from your library — an advert, a montage, a sting.
Play a YouTube Video
Cue any YouTube video, no download and no karaoke-only filter.
Push Button
A big on-screen button that holds the running order until someone presses it.
Adding a cue: pick a type, fill in the one form, done.
Build it once. It runs itself.
Auto-cue chains items together so the night flows without a finger on the tablet. When you do want a pause — a raffle, a speech, a change of act — drop in a Push Button and the show waits politely for you.
- ✓Loop back to here. A Push Button can rewind the whole segment behind it, so a kiosk presentation replays for every new visitor — for hours, with no staff.
- ✓Cues that follow your settings. Mark a cue "use the default voice from Setup" and changing your host voice updates every one of them at once.
- ✓Safe to reorder live. Cueify won't let you accidentally shuffle something past the track that's actually playing.
The Device Scene Editor — cue lighting against the actual waveform.
◆ Optional stage gear
Lights, vocal FX and the mixers — cued to the beat
Add a Cueify Stage Node and the same running order drives your rig. Scrub a song's waveform, drop a cue exactly where the chorus lands, and it fires there every time that song plays.
- ✓DMX lighting. Your fixtures, patched and cued, driven out over XLR by the Stage Node on its Bluetooth link to the tablet.
- ✓Digital mixers. Recall scenes, ride levels and mute channels on an Allen & Heath CQ-12T or a Behringer XR12 — at the touch of a button, or from a cue at an exact point inside a song. The desk's own faders are drawn on screen.
- ✓Vocal FX. Switch HeadRush VX5 rigs from a cue, on top of the automatic key selection.
- ✓Any MIDI instrument. A synth, module or drum machine on a plain USB MIDI interface can be cued too.
- ✓Scenes that fire themselves. Tag a look to happen when a song starts, stops, or when a fast song comes on — no cue needed.
- ✓None of it required. Cueify runs a full night with no Stage Node at all. Add it whenever you like.
The box that does it
One small enclosure. Everything else is the tablet you already have.
Your files, on the tablet, in artwork tiles.
◆ Your media
A proper file browser, on the screen you're already looking at
Karaoke tracks, videos, music and images, each in their own area, browsable by folder — with everything you'd otherwise need a laptop for.
- ✓Tidy it up in place. Make folders, move songs and folders into them, rename a title or artist, delete what you don't want.
- ✓MP4 and MP3+G both. Video tracks play as they are, and so do the MP3+G discs most bought karaoke comes as — Cueify draws the lyrics itself from the
.cdgfile beside the audio. - ✓Add songs from the tablet. Upload files straight into a folder — a whole MP3+G pair, or a zip of them — or search YouTube and download the result into your library.
- ✓Fix videos that won't play. Cueify flags a track in an old format and converts it for you.
- ✓Even out the volume. It measures how loud each track is and levels them, so nobody gets a fright between songs.
- ✓Trim the dead air. Silent intros and long fade-outs are skipped automatically.
- ✓Key and tempo at a glance. A coloured badge on each song shows its key and how fast it is.
◆ And the rest
The details that get you through a live night
Backup & restore
Snapshot every show and every setting to a named file, and bring the lot back next week.
Four-way volume
Independent levels for the track, background music, the announcer and the avatar.
Idle slideshow
Your own images between songs, with background music underneath.
Friendly address
Guests reach the tablet by name on the venue Wi-Fi — no router setup needed.
Host PIN
Every control is behind a PIN, and the tablet's own panel unlocks itself so you're never typing it on stage.
Side-panel control
Show the live guest interface right beside the video, so the host screen is also the control screen.
Full-screen on play
The queue slides away the moment a song starts and the video takes the whole screen.
A guide, built in
A plain-language assistant inside Setup that walks you through switching a feature on.
◆ Setup
Two levels of settings, and no confusion between them
Settings are split once, and only once: things that belong to the tablet, and things that belong to a show. You never have to work out which you're editing — they're separate screens, and the show one carries the show's name across the top of it.
The tablet's own settings — set once, then left alone.
Set the tablet up once
Your folders, your accounts, your Stage Node, your network. The things that don't change from one night to the next, and that every show on the tablet shares.
- ✓One folder for everything. Point Cueify at a single data folder and it files your songs, pictures, music and videos inside it — no separate path to set for each.
- ✓Your gear, once. Add the fixtures you actually own from a catalogue of hundreds, set your Stage Node and your network, and forget about it.
- ✓Backup & restore. Snapshot every show and every setting to a named file, and bring the lot back next week or on a second tablet.
- ✓A guide built in. A plain-language assistant sits in the rail and walks you through switching a feature on, in order, checking each step as you go.
A show's own settings, headed with the show they belong to.
Then give each show its own character
Open a show's settings from its card and what you change there changes that show and nothing else. Your Friday karaoke and your Saturday performance can disagree about everything and neither one notices.
- ✓Its own voice and script. A different announcer, speed and language per show, with its own set of spoken lines.
- ✓Its own look. Its own slideshow, its own avatar, and its own lighting scenes — edited from inside the show they belong to.
- ✓Only what applies. A show is only offered the settings its type can use, so there's nothing on screen that would do nothing.
- ✓Back to the beginning. One button rewrites a show's scripts and switches back to the starting point for its type, without touching its voice, avatar or scenes.
◆ Getting going
Three steps to a running show
1
Point it at your media
Choose your folder and let Cueify scan it. Titles, artists, keys and volumes are sorted out for you.
2
Create your show
Karaoke, Practice, Performance or Kiosk — pick a type and every setting arranges itself sensibly. Then build the running order.
3
Start it
Put the QR on screen for a karaoke night, or arm the set and press play. From there it runs itself.
"The tablet is the show. Lighting desk, karaoke player, announcer, queue system and information kiosk — all of it, on one screen, on the wall." — WHAT CUEIFY REPLACES
◆ The short version
What it runs on
| Host device | A single Android tablet — no PC, no laptop, no rack |
|---|---|
| Show types | Karaoke Night, Karaoke Practice, Live Performance and Kiosk — as many shows of each as you like |
| Guests | Any phone with a browser, over the venue Wi-Fi. Nothing to install |
| Media | Your local karaoke library — MP4 video tracks and MP3+G discs (an .mp3 with its .cdg lyrics file) — plus your own video and music folders, and YouTube search, streaming and download |
| Lighting | DMX from the Cueify Stage Node, linked to the tablet over Bluetooth, out through an ENTTEC interface over XLR |
| Vocal FX | HeadRush VX5 with real Antares Auto-Tune, key selected automatically per song |
| Stage gear | Allen & Heath CQ-12T mixer over MIDI, a Behringer XR12 mixer over the network, and any class-compliant USB MIDI instrument |
| Voice & avatar | Studio TTS voices and live video avatars, on your own ElevenLabs and LiveAvatar accounts (bring-your-own-key), plus on-device speech recognition for the kiosk |
| Security | Host PIN on every control; optional HTTPS for the guest interface |
◆ Questions
Reasonable things to ask
Can one tablet really hold more than one show?
Yes — that's rather the point of it. Each show keeps its own running order, host voice, lighting scenes, slideshow and screen layout, and they don't interfere with each other. Switch between them in a tap, duplicate one to start the next, and back the whole set up to a file.
What's the difference between a Performance show and a Kiosk?
A Performance show is driven by you: you build a set list and run it with a transport — play, pause, fade to the next — and you can amend the running order mid-show without disturbing the set you built. A Kiosk show is meant to be left alone: it loops its running order all day, resets itself for each new visitor, and can start on its own when the tablet powers up.
Do my guests need to install anything?
No. They scan the QR code on the screen and the interface opens in their phone's browser. It's served by the tablet itself, so it works even if the venue's internet is down — you only need the Wi-Fi.
Does it work without lighting hardware?
Yes. The lighting, vocal FX and mixer features are entirely optional — Cueify runs perfectly happily as a karaoke and announcement system on its own, and you can add the Stage Node later.
Is the Auto-Tune actually real, or just a karaoke sound effect?
It's real. Cueify drives a genuine HeadRush VX5 pedal running the licensed Antares Auto-Tune engine — the same pitch-correction technology used in professional studios — not a software filter bolted onto the app. The part Cueify adds is picking the right key automatically, so nobody has to know the song's key or set anything by hand.
Do the voice and avatar features cost anything extra?
The app itself doesn't charge for them, but the AI host's voice runs on your own ElevenLabs account and the video avatar on your own LiveAvatar account — both bring-your-own-key, so you only pay for what you actually use. YouTube search needs a free YouTube Data API key too. None of this is required: the voice and avatar are optional, and Cueify works fully without them.
Can the kiosk be used for something other than a party?
That's exactly what it's for. Give it your own information — typed in, or read from a web page you nominate — and it becomes an information desk for an open day, a showroom, a trade stand, a property viewing or a reception area. Turn on "only reference my data" and it will admit it doesn't know rather than making something up.
What happens if someone queues a song I don't own?
Cueify searches YouTube alongside your own library and can stream the result straight away — or hand the download off to the Stage Node so it's in your library for next time.
Can guests mess with my settings?
No. Everything that changes the show sits behind a host PIN, and you choose which tabs guests can even see. The tablet's own panel unlocks itself, so you're never typing a PIN in front of a room.
Can I set the whole night up in advance?
Yes — build the running order as cues inside the show, and it's still there next time. You can also snapshot everything to a file and restore it at the venue.
