Great for rehearsing lines, but not for self taping – coldRead Review

I was on vacation this week and really wanted the self tape function to be my solution, but after bout two hours of getting the lines loaded for three scenes, it was just too problematic to try to manage the cues. In theory, this is the perfect app. I eventually grabbed a friend and did it the old fashioned way in a fraction of the time. It is a great tool for learning lines, but for that function the cost of subscription is too steep. There are aspects of it, technically, that are brilliant - love that I can modify the reader’s volume and match the room tone. Transcription is wonderful. The timer is awesome. Tried to connect my remote for the tap for cue function but it didn’t work. There was no way to adjust the video settings (that I could find) and the color and exposure were off. Normally I don’t write reviews - this has great promise, and I hope the developers continue to make improvements and include more detailed instructions about interface in the future.
