Everything you need to write about dBaton CUE, without having to ask us for it. Images are free to use in coverage of the product.
dBaton CUE is a plugin that lets a composer or engineer share their DAW's audio, live, with someone who isn't in the room — the listener just opens a link in a browser.
Boilerplate (~100 words)
dBaton CUE is an audio plugin (VST3, AU and AAX for macOS 13+ and Windows 10+) that streams a DAW's output live to any web browser. Composers and mix engineers use it for remote approval sessions: the client opens a link and hears the session in real time — nothing to install, no account to create, and up to eight simultaneous listeners. Audio is encrypted in transit and is not stored on our servers. CUE costs €199/$199 as a one-time purchase, or rent-to-own: sixteen monthly payments of €12.50 that end in a full licence. A 14-day trial is available. CUE is built by dBaton, an independent one-person studio in Spain.

What CUE is not
CUE is for listening and sign-off, not for playing together: there is a few seconds of delay, so it is not a low-latency jamming tool. The listener hears the audio; they cannot download or record it from the page.
