Repertoire Help / Re: Help to scroll to next son...

Thank You for the help. I have another question.
I setup my pedal for: Next Page / Marker or Song to up arrow click & Previous Page / Marker or Song on down arrow click. The previous page click will scroll the pages of a song and also change to the next song but the next song click will only scroll the page of the song and not change to the next song in the setlist. What am I missing?

Most foot switches are really keyboards (a typing keyboard, not a piano keyboard) that send a limited number of key messages. Most commonly a keyboard connects by Bluetooth using the HID protocol, but it can also connect by USB. The PageFlip Firefly (2 buttons) and Dragonfly (4 buttons) can do both:

The other option is a foot switch that sends MIDI messages, and connects through a USB MIDI interface.

Repertoire Help / Any alternative to Bluetooth?

Last post by ksipp01 - February 25, 2026, 07:17:35 AM

I have been successfully controlling AutoScroll start/stop and manual scroll with a homemade footswitch using Arduino ESP-32 via keyboard commands over Bluetooth. It works great except there are some locations that I cannot for the life of me get Bluetooth to connect to my iPad.  It's seem like location dependent interface? Possibly other BT devices??  I'm pretty dependent on this so for a gig this is no good when it happens.   

Is there any alternative to BT such as direct control via TCP? 

Thanks in advance!

You don't need markers to use the "Page/Marker" actions. If you don't have markers, they will scroll by page.

You can't use the Scroll Document Down and Scroll Document Up actions AND change songs with the same foot switch button. You can use the Next Page/Marker Or Song and Previous Page/Marker Or Song actions instead.

Repertoire Help / Help to scroll to next song.

Last post by Borske - February 24, 2026, 03:38:17 PM

I had to change tablets and for the life of me I cannot remember how to get my bluetooth pedal to change to the next song in my setlist once we are the end of a song. I have my pedal set to scroll 40% when I click the button so I can scroll through the song as we play and then once I am at the end of the song I would like to be able to change to the next song via a button press. This is how I was setup on my old tablet but I cannot seem to get that feature on this tablet.
What I am trying to accomplish: Right pedal scrolls down through the song and change to next song. Left pedal scrolls up through a song and then to previous song.
