1. To send MIDI data in sync with a recording, you should attach the MIDI file to the recording. You do not need a SoundFont in this situation because the MIDI file is not generating sound.

2. You also submitted a help ticket about this, and we determined that BandHelper is sending Note On/Off messages but something else is converting the Note Off messages to Note On with a velocity of 0. That shouldn't matter because MIDI apps and devices should respond the same way to both, but the Light Rider app apparently doesn't.

Im also having trouble finding a 'notes per user' function.  Does that exist? Where everyone makes their own notes that only they can see? Right now anything typed into notes by any user shows up for everyone.

Schedule Help / Is it possible to select categ...
Last post by SoundOfTheCrowd - February 01, 2026, 06:52:21 AM
Hi

Is it possible to display just events in a certain category (or categories) in the shortcuts on the home screen and on the events homescreen?  I've got my bandmates to create for where they're not available, which makes scheduling easier, but it means that all of those events show in the shorcuts too, whereas I just want to see things in the Gigs category.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Mick

Hi Ralleberg,

Not sure if this will be any help, but here's how I use midi controller DMX lights:

Band helper and Luminair 4 on same iPad (2024 Pro)
Luminair set to midi note triggers.
Midi notes recorded (Cubase 14), files loaded into Midi Files folder in BH, then attached to Track audio track. Works perfectly.
I don't have midi note on 127 and off 0, just simply the relevant midi note for the lighting scene I want to use.

Hi Arlo

Apologies for the very late response on this - I did look at it before, but couldn't make it work in my head - the bit I'm confused about is how I represent the shares in the event itself - all I can see that the system will let me do is put in £100 for each of us, but that doesn't match the reality.  Can you clarify for me please?

Thanks

Mick.

Finance Help / Invoice not showing the correc...
Last post by SoundOfTheCrowd - February 01, 2026, 03:41:59 AM
Hi Arlo

I'm creating an invoice for an upcoming booking, and the date format is showing in all three places (Date, Event Date and Date Due) as 2026-02-01, even though I've chosen 01-02-2026 in settings.  Can you advise please?

I've got a few other questions about creating the invoice, which I'll put below - if you'd rather I added each one as a new topic, then just let me know.

Is it possible to add a logo to the invoice?
Is it possible to customise the invoice number?
Is it possible to display a currency symbol next to the amount? It just shows 1,000 instead of £1,000

Thanks very much

Mick

How about just numbering the recording channels? That would take less space than showing the recording position names.

I'll put saving the volume slider positions on my wish list.

Setting or excluding song selection actions at the song level would add a lot of complexity that most people won't need.

Instead, you could record an automation track for each song that starts the functions you want to start for that song, then use the song selection action to start the automation track. Note that you can copy and paste automation tracks between songs, so if you only need two or three different combinations of functions, you don't have to create a new automation track each time.

Repertoire Help / Re: Parent Preset
Last post by arlo - January 29, 2026, 04:42:50 PM
Yes, pinning an item to all songs means all songs, not just the songs that don't have an item directly attached.

And yes, if you have a MIDI preset that you want to use on multiple songs but not all songs, you will need to attach it to those specific songs rather than pinning it to all songs. You can add and remove presets from multiple songs simultaneously using the batch update functions on the Repertoire > Songs page of the website.

I think an option to designate a default preset to be used automatically by songs that don't have a specific preset would be confusing, and it's better to just assign the exact preset that you want for each song.
