What composers say about DropCue

31 verified reviews from working composers and musicians.

“DropCue should have come along, long ago. Over my career as a composer/arranger, there has been so little opportunity to easily get stuff heard. DropCue makes it ridiculously simple to have all that you want others to hear in one place... available 24/7. Thanks for gettin’ it right the first time out, guys!”
Bruce Miller — Composer — Frasier, Wings, Designing Women, Becker, The Odd Couple
“The new album features are a total game-changer. I don't know of any other platform that offers this. Now I can send an editor one playlist where everything is accessible, complete with direct links to the licensing pages. It makes the whole process seamless.”
Jake Cox — Composer
“DropCue combines the best of the best into one beautiful place. I'll be referring my friends and anybody who needs a fully featured platform. Y'all have made my dream come true.”
Dee Eye — DMD Record Productions
“I've been using DropCue for awhile now, and it's been nothing short of fantastic. I've used a few other music sharing platforms before, but this is at the top of the list for me. Super user-friendly, full of great features, and solid customer support. Also, no complaints that it's a fraction of the cost of competitors! Glad I made the switch!”
Jason T. Miller — Composer — TV's Frasier
“Visually Intuitive, Workflow-Driven Music Sharing Powerhouse”
Caleb Parker — TV and Film Composer
“Lets me compose more and do less file management. It has a great interface and it is very easy to navigate. Customer support is top notch with quick responses and direct answers. Great value for the money!!”
Brett Clarin — Trailer Music Composer
“The app is fantastic!”
Erick Bolivar — Film, TV and Trailer Composer
“DropCue is a great resource for composers looking to organize and present their music professionally. Its focus on metadata and licensing makes it a valuable addition to a composer’s workflow. Highly recommended!”
Stella Tartsinis — Composer for Film, TV and Trailers
“Fan. Flipping. Tastic! And for the price?!?! It feels like stealing. It would be harder to find an excuse not to sign up and try for yourself.”
Craig Gilroy — Film and Trailer Composer
“DropCue has integrated into my workflow seamlessly. The flexibility and clean interface has really elevated my submissions.”
Mike Fraumeni — Composer
“Wow! This is way better than Reelcrafter by far. Great work on this. I was able to make a playlist really quickly and I love all the metadata options and the AI generated artwork is a really cool feature.”
Colten Tyler Williams — Composer
“DropCue’s AI handles cue descriptions, artwork, key and BPM, and I can see exactly who’s listening to what. Timestamped feedback from publishers makes revisions clear and streamlined.”
George Cicci — Composer, Producer, Sound Designer
“It's been about 6 months since I left DISCO and I am absolutely blown away by DropCue. My catalog has never been this organized or presentable, and I'm so proud when I share it with clients. The portfolios and playlists are super easy to create and share instantly.”
Devyn Rush — Singer, Songwriter & Vocalist
“I honestly can't remember the last time I received a support email this thoughtful, complete, and personal. That says a great deal about the company you're building.”
Michael Shelton — Iron Bell Song Publishing
“I'm glad I found a platform that combines an intuitive interface, user-friendly functionality, and cares about composers.”
Alexander Park — Composer
“It has all the features I want and the user interface is very intuitive. I can have a professional portfolio/webpage ready in just a few minutes. Sharing playlists and works-in-progress without requiring listeners to have a login to some app or site is a must-have and DropCue gives you so much more.”
Eric McDonald — Musician and Guitarist
“Thanks for reviewing my songs. What surprised me most was the depth of knowledge behind the feedback. The criticism was always constructive and incisive, and it's made me think seriously about reworking some of my tracks, mostly on the arrangements and production side. I'd absolutely recommend sending your songs in for review, and I'll be sending more of mine soon.”
Jeff Palmer — Cornish Kings
“I just want to congratulate you for creating such a fantastic site! I was sold by the great features, simplicity of use and the very reasonable prices. I used DISCO for a while and I think your site is way better!”
Dean Douglas — Composer
“DropCue is a visually intuitive and feature-rich sync music management platform that blows the competition away. It is easy to use and navigate, offers useful AI features and multiple eye-catching graphic layout templates for playlists and portfolios and is simply a joy to explore and use.”
Robin Alciatore — Musician and Composer
“I dropped DISCO because of better features and overall look. I can see who listened, who opened playlists. It just works and looks great.”
Marcin Ciszczon — Composer, Producer, Mixer, Engineer
“DropCue feels like it was built by someone who actually understands how composers organize and deliver music. I moved my catalog delivery over from DISCO after testing DropCue with real albums and client-facing links. It handles the work I need every week without getting in the way, and the presentation is clean enough that I'm happy sending it to publishers and music supervisors.”
Dallas D. — Composer
“It took about a tenth of the time to get 3000 tracks into this platform compared to DISCO. And the support was in a different class.”
Ed B. — Composer
“I made the transition from Disco to Dropcue and have never looked back. The stems, lyrics, and metadata functions are second to none.”
Jon S. — Owner, Music Company
“A fast and intuitive way to help with metadata tagging, playlists, and much more. The team quickly added a couple features I requested. I can't recommend this platform enough.”
Peter W. — Owner, Music Company
“DropCue is no longer just a cloud for storing and sharing my tracks; it is a complete promotional system, a gateway that offers the chance to be heard, and an essential tool for organizing my catalog.”
Beto Fortis — Composer and Producer
“As someone who regularly sends music to libraries, it makes the whole process so much easier and saves me a lot of time. I especially like how it helps with generating track metadata and organizing all the details, so I don't have to spend so much time doing everything manually.”
Rodolfo Keyloun — Producer
“It is great for making demo reels and sharing music as well as providing analytics. So far I have only scratched the surface of what it can do and they keep upgrading the platform to do even more!”
Samuel A. — Freelance Composer
“If I need to send a track to my supervisor, it takes seconds to upload and share the link, nothing is easier. The UI is so easy to navigate and understand, it's like a walk in the park.”
Mário Bengalita — Composer for Media
“There's a lot of room to customize tracks and your portfolio, and I haven't even explored everything yet. I'm also really impressed by how responsive the founder, Marc Jacobs, is: you suggest a feature and he often adds it soon after.”
Tim M. — Composer, Sound Designer
“DropCue offers a professional and convenient platform for showcasing and organizing music portfolios. It is useful for independent composers working in cinematic music, trailer music, hybrid orchestral scores, and sound design.”
Yeshwanth K. — Composer and Sound Designer
“It is very easy to use, customer support is second to none, price is more than fair, access to analytics.”
Allan Peterson — Artist

FAQ

Common questions

What is DropCue?

DropCue is an EPK (electronic press kit) and playlist sharing platform for music and video professionals. Composers, artists, sync agencies, and music libraries use DropCue to build branded press kits and share curated playlists via secure links with real-time analytics, timestamped waveform comments, password protection, and download controls. Plans start at $8/month, and the EPK page is on Pro from $15/month with annual billing.

What is an EPK?

An EPK (electronic press kit) is a digital one-stop hub that musicians and composers send to music supervisors, agencies, labels, and journalists. A great EPK includes a bio, a curated music sample, a video reel, contact info, and links to streaming and social. DropCue lets you build a branded EPK in minutes and share it as a single link with full analytics on who viewed what.

How do I make an EPK?

To make an EPK in DropCue: sign up at dropcue.app, upload your best tracks and a video reel, add a short bio and your contact info, customize colors and your domain, and share the link. Most musicians have a polished EPK live in under 15 minutes. Unlike static PDF press kits, your DropCue EPK shows you who opened it and which tracks each person played, plus completion rate and average listen time (Pro).

What is the best DISCO.ac alternative for music pitching?

DropCue is a popular DISCO.ac alternative that offers comparable features at lower prices. DropCue Artist is $8/month with annual billing. Pro plans start at $15/month for 1,000 tracks and scale by catalog size. Artist includes password protection and expiring links; Pro adds full per-recipient analytics, timestamped waveform comments, document attachments, and AI tools with no add-ons. DISCO Pro is $29.99/month billed monthly, with AI tagging sold as a Discovery Suite add-on from $10/month (DISCO pricing checked October 2026).

What is the best playlist sharing platform for sync licensing?

DropCue is a playlist sharing platform built specifically for sync licensing professionals. It lets composers, agencies, and libraries share music and video via branded links with real-time analytics showing who played which tracks and when, plus completion rate and average listen time. Features include video uploads, playlist sections, timestamped feedback comments, password protection, automatic ALT mix grouping, and a music submission inbox. Free 7-day trial at dropcue.app.

How much does DropCue cost?

DropCue Artist is $8/month with annual billing or $10/month monthly. Pro plans start at $15/month annual for 1,000 tracks and scale up by catalog size. Same pricing for composers and agencies, and free for verified music supervisors. Team seats are on Pro and Studio, and each seat is a full copy of the plan, so a team pays the plan price times the number of seats. Annual billing saves up to 23%.

What is the DropCue Business Suite?

The DropCue Business Suite is a set of pro tools on the Studio plan that lets music composers run the entire business side of sync licensing in one place. It includes the Label Directory (700+ record labels, publishers and ad agencies to pitch, each with its own tracked link so you know who listened), Roster (track every composer and collaborator you work with, rated and tagged by skill), Market Scanner (find upcoming film & TV opportunities to pitch), Pitch Pipeline (a sync pitch CRM that tracks deals from prospect to placed), Project Planner (plan a client job or album cue by cue, with a checklist of every deliverable you owe), Agreement Generator (create sync licensing contracts as PDF and Word in seconds), Clients & License Tracker (manage clients, projects, invoices, and licenses), Royalty Tracker (analyze PRO and distributor royalty statements by track, territory, and source), and DropCue University (61 lessons on the business of sync). Studio starts at $29/month billed annually ($33 month to month).

What is DropCue Studio?

DropCue Studio is the top DropCue plan for serious music composers, starting at $29/month billed annually ($33 month to month). It includes everything in Pro plus the full Business Suite: Label Directory, Roster, Market Scanner, Pitch Pipeline, Project Planner, Agreement Generator, Clients & License Tracker, and Royalty Tracker, plus free access to DropCue University. Studio turns DropCue from a music sharing tool into a complete music-management platform: find the work, pitch it, sign it, get paid, and learn to do it better.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. The 7-day free trial requires no credit card. Sign up with just your email and start building playlists immediately.

Can I import tracks from other platforms?

Yes. Upload any audio or video format — WAV, MP3, AIFF, FLAC, MP4, MOV, WebM. Drag and drop multiple files at once. Embedded metadata is automatically imported, and you can also bulk-import metadata from a CSV or spreadsheet — map columns, match to tracks, and apply instantly.

Will DropCue recognize my existing tags, and does AI tagging preserve them?

Yes. If you've tagged your files in Mp3tag or a similar tool, DropCue reads those embedded tags automatically on upload — title, artist, album, genre, mood, BPM, key, comments, lyrics, ISRC, writers, publishers, and cover art. AI analysis only fills in fields you left empty, so your existing tags stay exactly as they are. Wherever you already have a value, DropCue shows the AI suggestion next to yours in a review screen, and you accept or ignore it field by field. Nothing you tagged is overwritten unless you choose to.

What happens when my trial ends?

Your playlists and tracks stay safe. You just can't create new shares until you pick a plan. Artist is just $8/mo with annual billing.

How is DropCue different from the competition?

Lower prices and no add-on fees. Per-recipient analytics, AI tagging, and lyric transcription are built into Pro instead of sold as add-ons. Plus features like timestamped waveform comments, auto-grouped alternate mixes, and a portfolio page with a looping video banner.

Can I upload videos, images, and PDFs?

Yes. Pro plans support video uploads (MP4, MOV, WebM) alongside your audio tracks — perfect for showreels, music videos, or visual pitches. You can also attach PDFs and documents like cue sheets, lyric sheets, and license agreements to any track or playlist. Album artwork and playlist cover images are supported on all plans.

Can I send email campaigns to my contacts?

Yes — Pro plans include built-in email campaigns. Choose a template, write your message, select recipients by tag or list, and send or schedule. Track deliveries, opens, clicks, and bounces in real time. Up to 2,000 recipients per campaign.

Can I collaborate with co-writers?

Yes. Credit a co-writer by email and the track lands in their own DropCue library, with your artwork and metadata, ready to accept in one click. People who aren't on DropCue get an invite to claim it, and you can share a whole album at once. Co-writer collaboration is included on Pro plans.

What is the Business Suite on the Studio plan?

DropCue Studio adds a Business Suite that turns DropCue into a full music-business platform, not just a place to share music. It includes a Royalty Tracker (import royalty statements from any PRO or distributor and see which placements actually earn), an Agreement Generator (create sync license agreements as PDF and editable Word docs), a License Tracker (one record of every license you've granted), a Pitch Pipeline (a kanban board for every active pitch), and a Market Scanner (discover productions that need music). Studio starts at $29/mo billed annually ($33 month to month) and scales by catalog size.

What is DropCue University?

DropCue University is a complete, self-paced online course on the business of sync licensing, included with the Studio plan — 61 in-depth lessons across 8 career tracks, plus 79 downloadable templates, checklists, and trackers. It teaches independent composers and songwriters how to get placed in film, TV, ads, trailers, and games, and how to get paid properly. The first two lessons are free to preview.
