Repertoire Help / Ring Remote Control
Last post by PeterC - August 31, 2025, 06:06:23 PMHas anyone tied - multifunction ring mobile remote control JX-05
Example

Theoretically, these should be configurable via accessibility functions
Has anyone experimented with bandhelper - tips or limitations?
With thanks

Last post by ChrisMikolaj - August 31, 2025, 04:18:35 PMOk, I think once the "Frequency Performed equals 0" works again, I think that is the function, that I was looking for 
Looking forward to your findings.

Repertoire Help / Re: Add same tag for different...
Last post by ChrisMikolaj - August 31, 2025, 04:17:31 PMAlright, so basically like I thought. I've now just added a "Repertoire Project XYZ" tag to each project and assigned those individually per project. The smart list looks at "Contains = Repertoire", so all of the tags are pulled together and I can use one smart list, which is assigned to all projects.
That should do the trick.
Thanks!

Last post by arlo - August 31, 2025, 03:30:23 PMYou can't assign different tags in different projects. But within each project, you should only see the tags that are in that project. So if you create a separate Repertoire tag for each project, you will only see the one for to the project you're viewing.

Yes, which means you can make a smart list with a filter "Frequency Performed equals 0." That doesn't seem to be doing anything, though. I'll look into that next week.

Repertoire Help / Re: Adding new songs is proble...
Last post by arlo - August 31, 2025, 03:16:53 PMWhat is an example of an app that has a good import function from the web?
A function like this would rely on the content you want being available from a third-party website, which probably prohibits scraping its content, and then some amount of reformatting, which would vary from website to website. So given the lack of a single, standardized and legal source of content, I have preferred to leave content creation up to the user.
That will be easier through BandHelper's web interface on a computer.
Also, another way to make headings is to use the text formatting tools on the Lyrics field.

Last post by arlo - August 31, 2025, 03:11:46 PMUltimate Guitar often uses square brackets around headings like "Verse" and "Chorus." So you would need to click the ChordPro Tools button once to remove those, then again to convert the manually positioned chords to ChordPro.

Repertoire Help / Add same tag for different pro...
Last post by ChrisMikolaj - August 31, 2025, 07:31:42 AMHi Arlo,
I'm using a tag called "Repertoire" to mark songs that are well-rehearsed and solid enough to be considered part of our active setlist.
The tricky part: some songs are used in multiple projects. A song might be "Repertoire" in one project, but not in another. When I add the same song to different projects, it sometimes already carries the "Repertoire" tag—although that only applies to a different project.
Since I'm using smart lists to track repertoire, I currently apply the same list across all projects. One idea I had was to create tags like "Repertoire – Project 1", "Repertoire – Project 2", etc., but that would quickly multiply the number of tags and add extra maintenance.
Do you know of a smarter way to handle this? Or is creating project-specific Repertoire tags the only way to go?
Many thanks as always,
Chris

Repertoire Help / Identify Songs, that are no in...
Last post by ChrisMikolaj - August 31, 2025, 07:11:58 AMHi Arlo
Is there a smart way to find songs that are not included in any setlist – ideally even across different projects?
Here's my situation:
I play in several projects and created a "master project" where I keep track of all songs, set names, breaks, contacts, etc., so I have one complete overview. The problem is: Currently only the song list can pull in content from "all projects." Things like set names don't work this way. Maybe there is a plan to have that "Include all projects" button for contacts, set names, breaks, etc. as well? That'd be great to avoid the "master project"
I know that each song shows at the bottom which setlists it's part of. I also tried creating a smart list with the condition "Part of = "nothing"," but that didn't return the correct result at all.
What I'd really like is:
Would it additionally be possible within a smart list to see in which setlists a specific song was already included? I was thinking about sorting the list by setlists. That would obviously require a song to appear multiple times I think. That's probably not easily possible, but maybe there's a workaround available for that as well?
Last but not least: How is BandHelper identifying if and when a song was played? I saw on the smart lists there is an option to count how often a song was played. But do I need to tick off the songs during the shows or is it recognizing a song on a setlist with an event and date assigned to it and if it's in the past it was played? Then we could probably use the smart list to sort by when the song has been played last and that would already solve the above issues?
Any hint on how to approach that would be awesome.
Many thanks,
Chris

What I'd really like is:
- to identify songs in the database that have never been added to any setlist in any project.
- if that's not possible, at least to see within a project which songs have never been used in a setlist (and I can figure out the overlaps between projects myself)
