MIDI Help / More than two midi commands

Last post by AtlasRocker - March 28, 2026, 12:03:01 PM

I have midi from Setlist Maker going to the Fender Tone Master Pro and the Morningstar MC8 Pro. It works great. But on a few songs I have three midi presets going out. Whichever is in the third spot on the list does not work.
Are there settings I need to change?
Thanks Jim

Repertoire Help / exporting recordings

Last post by dcraftfrombr - March 27, 2026, 09:23:29 PM

Is there any way to export the recordings to a folder on my PC, but only the ones used in a particular setlist?

Repertoire Help / Re: ABC Notation

I can put this on my wish list.

Currently, you can create music notation in a music notation app, then export as a PDF to attach to a song as a full page document, or as a small JPG to insert inline into the lyrics.

thanks Arlo. PDFs are I'm doing right now within Bandhelper. This is just a neat little shortcut, would save a couple steps. Especially if I just need to toss a quick phrase in, without needing notation software.

Repertoire Help / Send MIDI with song change - a...

Last post by Makke - March 27, 2026, 04:58:45 AM

Hi,

I tried to set send midi with song change in Layouts > Edit Details, but the Actions section is not displayed. I see the parameters for Top Toolbar Buttons, there should be more parameters below which are not displayed.

Any recommendations?

Repertoire Help / Re: {Comment: Text} Chordpro

Last post by arlo - March 25, 2026, 11:55:40 AM

{Comment: Text} is converted to Text (in bold)

You can mark headings like:

# Heading

And then control the display of the headings from Settings > Appearance. The only heading color you can set is gray (with the Headings Fade setting), but selecting other heading colors is on my wish list.

Repertoire Help / {Comment: Text} Chordpro

Last post by damianjosephadams@gmail.c - March 25, 2026, 03:33:03 AM

Hi,
I understand Bandhelper has its own formatting rules;
But would it be possible in your parser when importing Chord pro files to Substitute {Comment: Text} to # Text
also would it be possible to allow setting a global colour setting for headings.
Thanks

Repertoire Help / ABC Notation

Last post by jeebustrain - March 21, 2026, 06:11:50 PM

I recently started using Joplin as a shared personal note taking application and saw that it supports something called ABC Notation. It's basically a markup language that lets you insert notation inline with text. I've started using it to make rehearsal song notes and it comes in handy to do little quick rhythmic or melodic figures and stuff without having to create an entire sheet of notation and export as PDF. I'm not sure how complicated it would be to add the functionality to Bandhelper, but if it was there, I would definitely use it (and I imagine others would as well).

Repertoire Help / Parameters for fields

Last post by damianjosephadams@gmail.c - March 19, 2026, 09:12:29 AM

Is it possible to substiute parameter names for fields
for example
I would like to setup an osc message where the Address pattern is fixed IE /Song
and the Argument Type could be set to a  Parameter or parameter list
EG. {Title}. << which would extract the song title and pass it as part of the osc string.
This could be set to active in every song and only need be setup once
I'm sure theres loads of other instances where using a parameter would be really useful.
If not could I request it for a later version.
