Repertoire Help / Re: Exporting songs!

Last post by arlo - July 03, 2025, 03:17:07 PM

You can export to PDF, which is a standard and useful format. If you want ChordPro text, you could copy and paste from an exported PDF file as described above.

You can also export to a tab-delimited format with the Export button at the bottom of the Repertoire > Songs page, but for what the original poster wanted to do, I think the PDF option would be easier.

Repertoire Help / Re: Exporting songs!

Last post by robdbirch - July 03, 2025, 01:27:26 PM

I am evaluating BandHelper I bought it for a month, we'll see how it goes. About a month back or so I initially did the free evaluation after watching a couple of YouTuber's talk about it. But, after about an hour using BandHelper I was so frustrated with it, I didn't go back. I proceeded to evaluate other solutions like OnSong which I did use for a short bit in 2015 and thought it was good back then but it seems to have taken a big turn for the worse. Then I tried MobileSheets and found 2 syncing bugs on MacOS and iOS and reported them within first hour. The nice thing was I got quick response. So, it seems this is the better of the lot? I do have a serious reservation of not being able to export Songs in a defacto format such as chord pro

Repertoire Help / Re: Hide shared chords when pe...

Thanks Arlo - I guess we will just ditch the shared chords and the two of us who use chords once in a while will use personal, that way we can control whether or not they take up real estate on our tablets.

Repertoire Help / Re: Songs - Color Assignment

I did turn that on thinking others could choose their color

Note that turning on your personal sync setting doesn't affect what anyone else sees. If someone else wants to use the colors differently, they would have to turn on their personal sync setting.

And of course you are correct - I did turn that on thinking others could choose their color, didn't realize it would override the current default choice.   Will still use it, just going to record my current selections first.
Many thanks!

Did you turn on Setting > Account Sync > Personal Sync > Colors? That would hide all the shared colors so you can add personal colors.

Repertoire Help / Songs - Color Assignment

Last post by Zionplayer - July 01, 2025, 03:55:41 PM

Did I just lose all color assignments to all songs in all of my projects today? I had green for acoustic guitar, light blue for lights, Brown for Electric Guitar 2nd parts...  all colors are now reset to Black in the 4 different projects I have checked so far, and nothing in my history report to account for it? This is SO odd...anyone else? Or did I screw something...

Repertoire Help / Re: Linked songs not auto play...

Last post by arlo - June 25, 2025, 11:04:32 PM

Are the songs not auto-advancing? In that case, please see:

Or are the songs auto-advancing but not triggering the app control actions? In that case, please submit a help ticket.

Repertoire Help / Linked songs not auto playing

Last post by bdjones72 - June 25, 2025, 07:35:14 PM

Hello.  I have songs that I have linked together in my set list.  I have set the app control functions to play automation with song auto-selection as well as second song selection.  I have also set the start video and start recordings for the same app control functions.  These work fine with second song selection, but are not working with auto song-selection when the songs have been linked together.  Am I missing something?

Repertoire Help / Re: Live Sharing Video

No, you can't share a video through Live Sharing. I would recommend splitting the HDMI signal and sending it to a second display that the drummer can see.
