Repertoire Help / Anyone using Boss Waza Air headphones with BandHelper?

« Last post by bherman on Today at 07:28:38 AM »

Hi all - I recently acquired a set of Boss Waza-Air Bass Headphones for use as a practice tool. I had hoped to use them with BandHelper to work through songs as we add them to our setlists, but so far have not been able to figure out how to get them to play recordings that I have stored with our songlist. Anyone using these? The documentation for them is skimpy, seems like it only works with certain supported music players.

I do have the same problem with FLAC audio files associated with song - the play button does not activate, at least kn my iPad.
Hope that this is helpful information.
Cheers,

I had a feeling that might be the case.  Maybe I can edit PDF in word and change the columns

Thanks

A deactivated user will still be able to view any data that has been downloaded to their device -- we can't "remote wipe" the data because that is prohibited by App Store policies -- but they won't be able to edit, export or download new data and won't be able to log into the website.

Account Help / Managing Band Members

Hey there.    I have a BandHelper account with several users. When a user leaves, I inactivate that user, but I’m finding that they still have access to the account and data.  What is the proper way to deactivate a former user?  Thanks.

Announcements / Ending iOS 9-10, Android 4 support

My policy is to support old OS versions for as long as I can, but I will soon end support for iOS 9-10 and Android 4 due to updates in the developer tools for those platforms. This means you will no longer be able to install app updates on devices running these OS versions. Eventually, compatibility problems will create new bugs and make the apps unworkable.

On iOS, this affects the iPad 2, 3 and 4, iPad Mini 1 and iPhone 5, which are around 10 years old. On Android, there are too many models to list. You can look at the Help > About page in the app to see what OS version you have now.

If you're still using one of these old devices, this is a good time to plan for an upgrade. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by the additional functionality and improved performance available in newer devices.

I think BandHelper might be calculating the width of the "Link" field before replacing the actual URL with the "Link" text, and that's why the right column is larger than it needs to be. Did you generate this from iOS, macOS, Android or the website?

You can't change the alignment of the columns. Generally, text fields are left-aligned and numeric fields like Tempo are right-aligned.

Are you asking about adding a colored background to text, as opposed to changing the text color? That's not currently possible, but is on my wish list and I'll add a vote for you.
