CUEPRINT

Docs / 01

Installation

CUEPRINT installs like any grandMA3 Lua plugin: copy the file to the right folder, import it into the Plugin pool, done. Budget two minutes.

What’s in the download

The .zip from your purchase email contains:

FilePurpose
cueprint.luaThe grandMA3 plugin (Lite and Pro)
cueprint.xmlPlugin descriptor for MA3 import
cueprint_ma2.xmlMA2 plugin (Pro only)
LICENSE.txtYour license terms
README.txtOffline copy of these instructions

Your license key is in the purchase email itself — keep it with your show documentation. The plugin never asks for it; it’s your proof of purchase for support and upgrades.

grandMA3 (console)

  1. Unzip the download on any computer.
  2. Copy cueprint.lua and cueprint.xml onto a USB stick, into:
<usb>/grandMA3/gma3_library/datapools/plugins/

Create the folders if they don’t exist — the path must match exactly.

  1. Insert the stick into the console.
  2. Open a Plugin pool window (Add Window → More → Plugins).
  3. Edit an empty pool slot: Edit + tap the slot.
  4. In the editor, press Import, choose your USB drive, select cueprint.
  5. Press Save. The pool button now reads CUEPRINT.

grandMA3 onPC

Same import flow, but the library folder lives on your machine:

Windows  C:\ProgramData\MALightingTechnology\gma3_library\datapools\plugins\
macOS    /Users/Shared/MALightingTechnology/gma3_library/datapools/plugins/

Copy both files there, then import from the internal drive instead of a USB stick in step 6.

MA2 (Pro only)

  1. Copy cueprint_ma2.xml to <usb>/gma2/plugins/.
  2. On the console: Setup → Show → Import Export → Import → Plugins.
  3. Select the USB drive, pick cueprint_ma2, import to an empty slot.
  4. Assign the plugin to an executor button or run it from the Plugins view.

First run

Tap the pool button. CUEPRINT reads the currently selected sequence and writes the CSV — see Usage for options and output paths. If nothing happens, start with Troubleshooting.

Updating? Re-import the new .lua over the same pool slot — settings are stored in the show file and survive the update.
