StageCut: Video for Musicians

Every mobile video editor treats audio as an afterthought. One track, a volume slider, maybe a fade. If you're a musician, that's not enough — the audio IS the content. StageCut is a video editor built around a real audio signal chain. Cut rehearsal footage, live sets and cover songs into music videos that sound as good as they look. AUDIO THAT WORKS LIKE A DAW Two independent 15-slot chains: a Clip Chain for one take, and a Global Chain across the whole project. Clip effects feed into Global effects, the order you'd expect from a mixing board. • 37 effects across Volume, Restoration, Filters, EQ, Dynamics, Time-Based, Distortion and Creative • Drag any slot to reorder it • Bypass a slot without losing its settings, so you can A/B a change while the preview runs • Tap a filled slot to reopen its parameters exactly where you left them SAVE YOUR CHAINS AS PRESETS Dial in a chain that suits your room, your mic or your instrument, and save it. Apply it to any other clip or project in two taps. Bypassed slots stay bypassed, so a preset carries your real working state. ANALYSIS THAT TELLS YOU WHAT'S WRONG Point the analyzer at your audio and tell it what it's hearing — a band, a solo act, a vlog. It reports on loudness, dynamic range, clipping, noise floor, tonal balance and activity, then suggests a chain to fix what it found. Apply it to your Global Chain in one tap, or dial it yourself. If your audio is already healthy, it says so instead of inventing problems to solve. OVERDUB ONTO THE TIMELINE Record a new take straight onto the timeline while the video plays. Layer a harmony over a live performance, drop a scratch vocal onto rehearsal footage, or replace a room mic entirely. Every overdub gets its own effect chain and placement, so it sits in the mix rather than on top of it. A COMPLETE VIDEO EDITOR UNDERNEATH • Split, trim, crop, rotate and flip • Seven colour filters, stackable, with intensity control on each — all free • 20 effects across Motion & Rhythm, Retro & Vintage, Color & Contrast, Distortion & Camera FX and Blurs & Glows — strobe, camera shake, motion blur, VHS and more • Rhythmic effects have their own speed control, so a strobe can sit on the beat • Text overlays with fonts, colours, glow and outline borders, and per-overlay timing • Fade in and out, set to the tenth of a second • Multi-clip import, reordering, and merge-all flattening BUILT FOR ACTUAL SESSIONS Projects autosave as you work, and drafts show their size so you know what's eating your storage. Import several takes at once and reorder them without losing your edits. Scrub by dragging, tap anywhere to seek, undo or redo any step. Export to MP4 wherever you want it — camera roll, a cloud folder, straight into a message. IN YOUR OWN LANGUAGE StageCut is fully translated into 27 languages — not just the menus, but the effect picker, the analyzer's findings, the help text and the error messages. You can set a language for StageCut alone, without changing your whole phone. WHO THIS IS FOR Musicians cutting live sets, concert clips and rehearsal footage. Singers and solo performers posting cover songs. Anyone who has ever exported a video, listened back, and thought the audio deserved better than that. Free, supported by ads, with 720p export. StageCut Pro is a one-time purchase — never a subscription — and unlocks 1080p export with no watermark, all 20 video effects, the full 15 slots on both chains, unlimited overdubs, saved presets, and no ads.
