Repertoire Help / Re: New iPad is missing the fi...

Last post by JerryK - June 18, 2025, 07:51:44 AM

If you don't mind, please publish whatever insights you might find on this... I find the first tic of count-offs in backing tracks often squelched (still there, but as if a few initial audio frames are dropped), though even true on older iPads. I've just learned to expect & tolerate it, but would be nice if there was a fix (other than adding silence padding to the start of all backing tracks, which works, but not going to do ;-)

My new iPad A16 is not directly responsible for this and possibly not at all, except that the now-discontinued 3.5mm socket required use of an adaptor - one that can also charge the iPad.
I think the adaptor - which in this case is not just a USB-C to 3.5mm 'cable' but also includes a USB-C socket for simultaneous charging - is probably converting USB Digital to Audio and trying to be clever by switching off the power to that D-to-A converter (in the adaptor) when there is no audio to convert.  I wish it wouldn't.
Then, when some digital audio arrives, the adaptor switches on the D-to-A converter, but slowly, over more than 0.5 seconds at a guess, so that we don't hear a click.  Of course, that's also hiding my wanted 1st click of the count-in.

This is largely guesswork but seems likely. 
Another, similar adaptor but with Lightning connectors, from the same manufacturer, does not have this problem on my older iPads.

A cable-only adaptor works fine too but of course I can't also charge the iPad.

Repertoire Help / Re: Hide all Chords Per User?

The chords would be hidden for all songs.

Thanks! Didn't know that.

That brings up a comment; it's sometimes difficult to tell what's a per-song setting, what's a per-user setting, what's a device setting and what's an account setting.

Personally, for hiding chords, I'd think that this setting should go with the user default settings, where they pick the default document, lyric size and etc. Then they could override that on a per-song basis with the documents toolbar.

That's the answer. That setting is per-device, but any user that doesn't want to see the ChordPro-style chords can use that to hide them on their devices.

Is that per-song or if they do it on one song, they're hidden for all songs?

I know you can toggle chords on and off with the documents toolbar

Is it possible to hide chords on a per-user basis? If there are in-line bracketed chords in the lyrics, singers who don't also play an instrument don't need to see chords. I know you can toggle chords on and off with the documents toolbar, but it would be nice can be set to off as a default for certain users. I also know there's the personal lyrics option, but then that would require copying all the lyrics over and removing the chords from them. That would be extremely time consuming.
