Freeze a performance edition of your setlist with each song’s concert key, capo position and matching written chord shapes, then export the complete PDF book. HOW IT WORKS 1. Create a setlist from saved charts, then open Gig Book from Setlists. 2. Create an edition, choose concert roots and capo positions, and add performance notes. Read each written-shape chart. 3. Save the edition, build its complete PDF, preview it and share the PDF with its edition record. Transpose, capo suggestions, Nashville numbers, setlist Stage Mode, samples and chart history remain available. Stage Mode now displays the written chord shapes that match its recommended capo. Long PDF charts flow across pages without silently clipping their final text. WHAT TO KNOW Up to 20 songs per book and 50 saved editions. Source charts are copied into the edition, so later library edits do not change it. Transposition is chromatic; minor labeling does not reharmonize a song. Use a standard full capo and verify the arrangement before performing. Share only charts you have permission to distribute. iPhone and iPad.
