If you're a musician or other performer planning your shows, Set List Maker is for you. This app lets you:
- Create separate databases for different projects (e.g, one for each band you play in).
- Enter all your songs, and copy them between databases if needed.
- Define a list of styles (e.g., Uptempo or Ballad), specify the key for each song and add notes.
- Add songs to a set list and drag and drop to rearrange them.
- Print your set lists wirelessly from your mobile device (requires a multitask-capable device and an AirPrint-compatible printer).
- Or use "performance mode" to skip the paper and take your iPad on stage with you.
You can also:
- Import songs from a spreadsheet or iTunes playlist to quickly populate your database. (Requires a $.99 in-app purchase, and iOS 3.2 or later.)
- Enter the durations of your songs and set breaks, then see the total length of your show as you add songs to it.
- Enter the tempo for each song, then preview it from your set list with a flashing indicator and optional click sound. Or control the tempo of external devices with a MIDI beat clock. (MIDI functionality requires a $1.99 in-app purchase, and iOS 4.2 or later.)
- Enter a starting pitch for each song, then preview it from your set list by playing a tone.
- Specify which fields are included when you email or print a set list or view it in performance mode.
- Attach a chart or lead sheet to each song, then open these documents from the set list. You can attach charts after copying them into the app through the "Open in..." feature in other apps or the file sharing feature in iTunes. (Requires iOS 3.2 or later.)
- Copy your charts to another app on your device for editing or annotation, then copy them back into Set List Maker.
- Connect a Bluetooth page-turning device like the Airturn BT-105 or PageFlip Cicada and advance through multi-page charts without taking your hands off your instrument.
- Enter MIDI bank and program numbers for each song, then let Set List Maker send the program changes when you select songs. (Requires a $1.99 in-app purchase, and iOS 4.2 or later.)
- Attach an audio file to each song, then play these files from your set list to preview your set. You can attach audio files by selecting them from your iPod music library.
- Enter YouTube links or other URLs in the notes for each song, then open those URLs from the set view.
- Enter the street address, booker's email address and phone number for each show, then open a map, email message or phone call by tapping the corresponding icons.
- Email your set lists and charts directly to your bandmates. (Requires a $1.99 in-app purchase.)
- Synchronize your databases wirelessly between multiple devices -- your own, or your bandmates'. (Requires a $2.99 in-app purchase for each user.)
