I. Installation

1. Download the latest version of the plugin from EditingTools.io.
2. Make sure to close Adobe Premiere Pro before installing the plugin.
3. Run the .pkg installer for macOS or the .exe installer for Windows. You can also install the extension using the ZXP file. This method requires a ZXP installer.
4. Open Adobe Premiere Pro, then open the Plugin Panel from the main menu by selecting "Window > Extensions > Music Cue Sheet Uploader."

II. Create the first list

1. Open your film sequence in Premiere Pro.
2. Click "Generate" in the plugin panel to get a preview of your project. Click on any entry to jump to that position in your timeline.
3. To clean up multiple cuts, check the "Options > Merge through edits" and "Options > Merge overlapping edits" boxes.
4. Press "Generate" to refresh the list.

III. Refine the results

1. You can also limit the list to active tracks only. This makes cleaning up the results easy, especially when working with a clean sequence with music on only two or three tracks. Select "Options > Targeted Tracks" and check all the tracks containing music. This way, the plugin will ignore all the irrelevant audio tracks.
2. Press "Generate" to refresh the list.

IV. Filter results

1. If you want to take it a step further, you can create filters. For example, you can create a filter to show only tracks containing predefined letters in the filename. For example, you can filter all tracks from APM Music by adding a filter searching for "apm" in the filename.
2. Press "Generate" to refresh the list.

V. Connect the plugin to your account

1. Open editingtools.io/account/api/ and create an API Key. Make sure it has the rights for the "Music Cue Sheet Manager". You can also use the API Key from another person that wants to receive your cue sheet.
2. Copy & past the API Key into the API Key field. The key will be stored for future use.
3. Enter a project name and click on "Upload" to upload the project into the "Music Cue Sheet Manager".

VI. Add metadata and complete the cue sheet

1. Open your profile to view all your cue sheet projects. Select and open the newly uploaded project.
2. In the Music Cue Sheet Manager, you can add metadata by clicking on "Scan Libraries" and edit project and track details.
3. Once you have finished, you can export the cue sheet document in Excel, CSV, and many other formats. The tool also provides presets, such as CISAC, to generate cue sheets in standard formats.
