Read full description

Read your script and start the right song at the right moment, all from one screen on iPhone or iPad. Script Music Player keeps your words and music cues together. Each cue card holds what you need to sayβ€”an introduction, a reading, a speaker note or a stage directionβ€”next to the song that follows. Say the line, tap GO, and the song starts from the exact point you chose. No switching between notes and a music app. READ THE CUE. TAP GO. β€’ Give every cue its own start and stop point. β€’ Use different sections of the same recording for different moments. β€’ Tap Advance to fade the current song and begin the next cue. β€’ See what is playing, what is next, and elapsed, remaining and total time. PREPARE BEFORE THE EVENT Save each wedding, reception, show, recital, class or presentation as its own project. Reopen it on the day with the script, cue order, song settings, playlist and imported music together. MUSIC READY ON YOUR DEVICE Import audio files from Files into organized folders for offline playback. Daylight Mode adds contrast outdoors, and the display stays awake while the app is active (iOS may still dim it if the device gets hot). PLAYLIST PLAYER FOR DOWNTIME When no one is reading from the script, Playlist Player covers cocktail hour, dinner, intermission and pre-show music. Add a whole music folder, reorder songs, choose Continuous or Random playback, and use Fade or Advance for a smooth change. BUILT FOR LIVE MOMENTS Designed by a working wedding DJ for DJs and MCs running reception introductions, officiants, ceremony coordinators, presenters, stage managers, theater and dance productions, teachers and coaches. OPTIONAL REMOTE FOR THE MAC APP Pair with Script Music Player for Mac 1.0 or later to control the Mac’s playback, volume, Advance, Loop, Fade and Echo. Audio plays on the Mac. Keep both apps open on the same network with Local Network access allowed. Project files and music are not transferred, and each app also works on its own. IN YOUR LANGUAGE The app’s interface is available in 12 languages. It follows your device language, or you can choose one in Settings. Only menus and labels change; your scripts, song names and projects stay exactly as you wrote them. TRY IT FREE Your first three Live Cues are free with no time limit, so you can build and rehearse them before paying. Cue four and beyond, plus Playlist Player, require paid access. There is no timed free trial. In the U.S., choose $3.99 weekly, $14.99 monthly, $59.99 yearly or $99.99 lifetime. Prices in other regions are shown in the app before purchase. Weekly, monthly and yearly subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. Manage or cancel in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions, or use Manage Subscriptions in the app. Lifetime is a one-time purchase that never expires. Buying lifetime access does not cancel an existing subscription. Restore Purchases is available, and existing lifetime purchases remain valid. Use audio files you own or have permission to use. Imported audio is stored on your device for offline playback. Protected streaming-service tracks cannot be imported.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Script Music Player at none against Discata's shown. Script Music Player also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 8 days) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
