Helm App
What this does: Helm Cloud App at app.helm.show holds the production: files, tracks, tasks, calendar, team and a public page. Helm Cues and Helm DJ pair with it and sync their show data up. The team reviews the show in a browser.
Helm App never plays audio, sends timecode or MIDI. Show control stays on the desktop. The cloud is for organising, reviewing, commenting and sharing.
Who it’s for
Section titled “Who it’s for”- Show callers / operators — push the Cues show to the cloud, review tracks and cue lists with waveforms in the browser, drop timestamped comments for the team.
- Production managers — one project per show: files and folders, a task tracker, a calendar, team roles.
- The wider team and clients — a public page per project (password optional) with setlists, audio previews, media and documents. No Helm account needed.
