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:
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
cueprint.lua | The grandMA3 plugin (Lite and Pro) |
cueprint.xml | Plugin descriptor for MA3 import |
cueprint_ma2.xml | MA2 plugin (Pro only) |
LICENSE.txt | Your license terms |
README.txt | Offline 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)
- Unzip the download on any computer.
- Copy
cueprint.luaandcueprint.xmlonto a USB stick, into:
<usb>/grandMA3/gma3_library/datapools/plugins/
Create the folders if they don’t exist — the path must match exactly.
- Insert the stick into the console.
- Open a Plugin pool window (Add Window → More → Plugins).
- Edit an empty pool slot:
Edit+ tap the slot. - In the editor, press Import, choose your USB drive, select
cueprint. - 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)
- Copy
cueprint_ma2.xmlto<usb>/gma2/plugins/. - On the console: Setup → Show → Import Export → Import → Plugins.
- Select the USB drive, pick
cueprint_ma2, import to an empty slot. - 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
.luaover the same pool slot — settings are stored in the show file and survive the update.
