Repertoire Help / Re: Setting tempo with Blueboa...
Last post by arlo - January 09, 2026, 10:43:51 AMThat's correct, automation tracks don't stretch to fit different tempos. If you want to sync lighting changes with your performance, you would need to use a click track to ensure a consistent tempo.
If you think your drummer is steady enough to do this without a click track as long as you start at the right tempo, you could use the tempo function in the app to signal the saved tempo to the drummer (with an in-ear audible click or an on-screen flash) and then let the drummer count you in based on that.

Repertoire Help / Re: Setting tempo with Blueboa...
Last post by midnightband - January 09, 2026, 10:36:47 AMI think I understand - So, what I was hoping to do is to use the automation tool to trigger midi messages to operate lighting scenes.
I set up automation in the songs, but we currently do not use a click track and rely on the drummer to count in - therefore the timing may be off a little. What I believe you are saying is that, establishing the tempo through the tap method does not communicate with the actual automation? If that is correct, then establishing the tap tempo for the song will not correct the automation timing. That being said, would you have any suggestions aside of using a click track??

Last post by arlo - January 09, 2026, 10:07:15 AMStrictly speaking, you can't start the automation track from the same button you're using for Tap Tempo because Tap Tempo requires that you click the button at least five times. I'm not sure that would be helpful anyway because, as I said, an automation track would map events to the tempo you used when creating it, and wouldn't adjust to different tempos that you tap in later.
If your automation track isn't using timed events but is just setting up various things at the start of a song, you could trigger that first, like from a song selection. In that case you might not even need the automation track and can just trigger actions directly from the song selection.
I said "strictly speaking" above because a possible hack for this would be to trigger the Start/Stop Automation Track action from the same button you're using for Tap Tempo. Then click 1 would start it, click 2 would stop it, click 3 would start it, click 4 would stop it and click 5 would start it again. You could try that if you want, but I don't really recommend it; I think the approaches above are cleaner.

Last post by midnightband - January 09, 2026, 09:57:01 AMArlo, You're the greatest! One follow up question: I was able to set the tempo just as your instructions worked, but how do I trigger the automation to start on the fifth tap? In other words, I tap on my pedal 5 times and that starts the metronome - but I would also like that to start the automation. Can you please let me know how to accomplish this?

Repertoire Help / Mass deleting a set on a setli...
Last post by ChrisMikolaj - January 08, 2026, 01:43:03 AMHey Arlo
Is there any mass delete a set within a setlist with all songs within it? Currently it is only possible to remove songs one by one either on the website or the app.
A mass edit via checkboxes or as an option for removing a set to check ,,also delete all assigned songs" or similar would be cool.
Thanks a lot,
Chris

Last post by ChrisMikolaj - January 08, 2026, 01:38:22 AMSounds good thank you very much.
Going back with a long press could've done the trick, but I'm on iOS 26 and so I could not use that.
During yesterday's gig I could jump back and forth through the menus and projects as well, but it required a lot more clicks.
Looking forward to your solution at some point.

But that might take a while...

Last post by arlo - January 06, 2026, 12:17:34 PMI think this might be doable and I'll put it on my wish list. Meanwhile, on older iOS versions you can long-press the back button and select any previous navigation level to jump to it, but iOS 26 broke that (and Android never had it).

Last post by ChrisMikolaj - January 06, 2026, 12:00:45 PMNot every song, but let's say every 5 songs or so roughly. But it's mainly a whole short set then, yes.
We are changing as it's not a big stage but more of a pub. I'll stay on "stage" as the guitarist and the singer just switches, which only takes less than a few seconds. It's just duo projects so the changes are quicker than actually having whole bands change.
Hope that clarifies a bit?
