About CUE sheets
A CUE sheet is a plain-text file that describes the track structure of an audio file — track titles, artists, start times. They're the standard way to ship DJ mixes, audiobook chapter lists and lossless album rips so software like foobar2000, VLC, Mixcloud, MusicBrainz and Plex can show you a navigable track list.
This tool runs both directions. Generator: enter the parent audio filename + a list of tracks (artist, title, start time) and get a valid CUE file back. Parser: paste an existing CUE and get a clean readout of every track. Pure text — no audio uploaded.

CUE sheet FAQ
What's the difference between a CUE sheet and ID3 chapter markers?
CUE sheets are external .cue files that sit alongside the audio. ID3 CHAP frames are embedded inside an MP3. Players differ in which they support — DJ tools tend to prefer CUE, podcast apps prefer CHAP.
Can I split the audio per track?
Not directly here — but the Split-by-Silence tool can find natural boundaries, or DJ Mix Splitter can auto-detect tracks in a mix.
Is the audio file uploaded for parsing?
No. The CUE parser is pure text — no audio is uploaded or required. The generator just records the parent filename inside the CUE; you don't upload that file either.
What's the time format?
CUE uses MM:SS:FF (minutes:seconds:frames where 1s = 75 frames). The generator accepts MM:SS or HH:MM:SS and converts internally — you don't need to think in frames.
