Other Help / Re: Set List Maker question
Last post by arlo - March 17, 2026, 08:15:19 PM
You can still use Set List Maker, but your iPad 2 is no longer supported and you won't be able to download current app versions. And I'm no longer adding new features to Set List Maker; more info on that is here:

Other Help / Set List Maker question
Last post by Acoustaholic - March 17, 2026, 05:31:36 PM
Hi everyone, I'm new here. I had set list maker years ago and I finally got my 2012 iPad 2 working. I'm getting old so bear with me. When I open the app it says this is being phased out, what must I do to continue using it ?
Let me know if I am not doing things properly.

Please see "HOW CAN I BACK UP ALL THE DATA I'VE ENTERED INTO BANDHELPER?" in the FAQ:

https://www.bandhelper.com/support/FAQ.html#back_up_data

Automation tracks are not saved in separate files; they would be included in the project export.

Repertoire Help / Automation Question (Backup)
Last post by Mully - March 17, 2026, 09:25:53 AM
Good Afternoon.  I have a question regarding Automation Files.  I have about 200 files with automation.  I NEED to do a complete backup of all my files.  That means, mp3 backing tracks, midi lists, and guitar automation, Lyrics etc.  I can see how I can back up the midi files and the mp3 files but what about the lyrics, automations etc?  Thanks in advance

No, the website doesn't have a dark mode.

The yellow used on the website is darker than the yellow used in the app in the dark color theme, but if that's still not enough contrast, you could set Settings > Appearance > Chords Color to another color, like orange.

Last post by dcraftfrombr - March 16, 2026, 09:13:40 PM
When using my iPad, I have the screen set for a dark (black) background with white lettering. The chords show as yellow. Very easy to read. When I view the document on my computer with the Bandhelper web page the background is white and the chords in yellow are very hard to see. Is there a way to make the website view documents like my iPad?

I am currently using SongbookPro and I can click to search online, type in the song name and a list of songs and versions is displayed. I select one and click to save and it immediately shows up in my song list. If it is the case that SongbookPro is not totally above board in this practice I will accept that and move on with copy and paste but if it something that can be implemented without incurring additional costs that would be great.

Add my vote for your wish list.... Never really used the automation feature, but adding timestamps to the lyrics would make life easier for me....

Cheers

You could add Multiple MIDI Buttons to your layout and click the button for that preset:

Or trigger it with a screen gesture:

Or with a foot switch button:
