MIDI Help / Re: Alternate MIDI interface

Last post by arlo - July 16, 2026, 03:44:29 PM

I think the only thing you'd need to change in BandHelper is the Port setting on the MIDI Device record, if it's currently set to the CME Widi. If it's set to All, then it will work with any MIDI interface.

MIDI Help / Alternate MIDI interface

Last post by richro65 - July 16, 2026, 12:39:57 PM

Currently the keyboard player is using the CME WIDI master and for the most part it works but at times it loses connection for some reason.

Anyways, she was asking about something wired. Has anyone used this device with BandHelper?  Just wondering if it's as easy as plug and play or if there needs to be configuration changes. 

Thanks

Other than the labels within environment directives, what's missing that leads to the "very minimal" conclusion?

Thank you very much! I will check if that is feasible, as it will then also be longer above the lyrics and might mess up some. But it's a good workaround for now.

Thanks!

It looks like ChordPro support is very minimal, which is unfortunate since all my CP files were created to be 100% compliant with the format.  Importing them into BandHelper means I will have to edit every one to make them usable.  You can go ahead and support for the labels to your wishlist, but I will be letting my trial subscription expire.

In Plus and Pro accounts, you can attach the set list to an event, and in Basic accounts, you can  set a date directly in the set list details page. Then it will move down the list out of sight as that date recedes into the past.

I can put that on my wish list. Meanwhile, non-chord text after the chord name in the square brackets isn't a problem, so you could change [(Am)] to [Am (stop)] or [Am x] or [Am.].

Repertoire Help / "Active" Toggle for Set LIst

Last post by KeytarPaul - July 15, 2026, 05:14:24 PM

We are doing a lot of repeat shows in Retirement Homes.
I would like a way to Archive those set lists of 100 plus songs (18 or so in each) to keep track of how many times each song is done at each location.
If I set a Set List to not Active, then it wouldn't show when viewing the Set List Page with ACTIVE toggled.

Repertoire Help / Re: Tempo flash

Last post by arlo - July 15, 2026, 02:54:19 PM

It sounds like you're using the Background Flash option, and some of your songs use the built-in Lyrics field while other songs use attached documents. You won't see much of the background flash with attached documents because they have an opaque background.

Instead of using the Background Flash option, I would recommend adding the tempo button to your layout and sizing it as large as you need to see clearly. That will display consistently whether you're viewing lyrics or documents.

Repertoire Help / Tempo flash

Last post by ScottAntico - July 15, 2026, 11:52:25 AM

Hi guys
I use bandhelper only for lyrics as a guide (drummer) on most songs the tempo will flash over the entire lyric but I have added some new songs and it only flashes at the very bottom.. Have looked at setting between 2 different songs one that is full and one just bottom and can see no differences.. Any ideas how to make them all full screen flash?
Cheers
