SongBook+ vs MobileSheetsLite

SongBook+ is the digital songbook for musicians who want their repertoire firmly under control, especially live on stage. Lyrics and sheet music are on screen instead of in a binder, each song keeps its own backing track, and with a MIDI-capable keyboard, SongBook+ recalls the matching registration as you open the song. No changing settings by hand, no searching between songs. SongBook+ works with your own material: lyrics, sheet music, backing tracks, videos, and MIDI files in common formats such as PDF, ChordPro, and MP3. No songs, lyrics, sheet music, backing tracks, or other files are included. Import your files via the Files app, Finder, Wi-Fi, or “Open in”, guided by an illustrated online manual. For solo performers with a keyboard, singers with backing tracks, cover bands, hobby musicians, and anyone with a large repertoire. For practice, rehearsals, lessons, the studio, and the stage. On iPad, iPhone, and Mac, on the App Store since 2011, continuously expanded with new features and updated for new iOS versions and devices. Use up to 15 of your own songs for free and set them up for your next gig. When your repertoire grows, unlock the full version in the app, either as a subscription or as a purchase with five years of updates. After those five years, your installed version keeps working; newer versions require a new purchase. The sponsoring subscriptions in the list of in-app purchases are a voluntary way to support development, not needed for the full version. To try out the features, load sample songs directly in the app. Keyboard and MIDI, matched to every song: • Recall keyboard registrations when you open a song • Send MIDI commands when opening, starting, stopping, or closing a song • Trigger MIDI commands with assignable buttons in the document • Play MIDI files through external sound modules • MIDI monitor, macros, routing, and THRU On stage, without searching: • Find any song in seconds, even on the fly: search, filters, tags, sorting • As many playlists as you like, for example one setlist per gig • Live playlist: add songs for the next set during a break, played songs can disappear automatically • Preselect the next song while the current one plays • Turn full pages or scroll smoothly, also automatically • Control SongBook+ by foot pedal or MIDI, your hands stay on the instrument • Night mode with inverted colors for dark stages • Visual and/or audible metronome • Portrait or landscape orientation Backing tracks, click, and video, every track where it belongs: • Play MP3, WAV, AIFF, and M4A • Up to 5 stereo audio files in sync • Mixer with volume, EQ for audio files, global and per song • Click and backing track on separate outputs (external hardware required) • Global balance, pan, channel assignment to external outputs • Loop audio, MIDI, and video files • Play jingles • Fade out songs: audio, video, and MIDI • Play your own karaoke videos directly on the iPad • External monitor or projector, rotatable image, also for song videos With the band, everyone on the same song: • Connect multiple iPads wirelessly and open songs in sync • Sync the live playlist with your band's devices, everyone sees the same set • Only the song number is sent, so each musician keeps their own view and notes • Separate books, for example one per band or project Prepare and practice, set up once, open anytime: • Display PDF, TXT, images, LRC, and ChordPro • Scan lyrics and sheet music to PDF with the camera • Import lyrics from MIDI and MP3 files • Add notes, chords, symbols, highlights, and handwriting • Record the song position with your finger and play it back karaoke-style After the gig: • Music log for reporting to ASCAP, BMI, PRS, and others • Back up, restore, export, and share data See how other musicians use SongBook+ with their keyboards and sound modules in the customer videos on songbookplus.com.
