Why I use the Songbook Pro app

Just another video about another tool I find useful.

I’ve used this for a couple of years. Love it. Had no idea about the key change thingy.😂

Ive used the app for a couple of years now its great for the solo artist and gives a great prompt enabling me to have a huge selection of songs to suit the gig and cover many requests. I can sing songs from the seventies off the top of my head but don’t gig enough to do that with all my songs hats off to anyone who can. I have encountered a bit of snobbery from others when i play in a band and agree crib sheets can help but this app is superb for editing, scroll speed, key changes on the fly ❤

Thanks for tutorial. Got this program on strength of it. Well explained.

One thing I’d like to see in this app is the ability to edit/customize chord diagrams.

Very nice testimonial on tech support, realtime!

[michaelkelly]

This may sound weird, but what I really like about it is that I can turn the pages horizontally rather than scroll them vertically. It feels more intuitive that way.

I like that I won't be providing residual income to the publisher. I hate subscription models and this is a very well priced product for what it does.

Great video ! I am wondering.... As a complete newbie to this, If I want to transition from a book to a tablet, does the app go only on the tablet to transfer existing lyric/chord sheets from a file on my desktop? Or would it go on the desktop to transfer to the tablet? Thank you in advance for any help.

Link w ultimate guitar & import, link w ur computer & upload your scanned paper tab in PDF, I uploaded SBP 2 days ago; pretty intuitive!

The IP address numbers it shows are local network addresses. They only work for someone on the same WiFi network as your tablet. So there wasn't actually any need to hide them.😊

JamZone is very cool much larger chords and and scrolls left to right and back up band and you can drop out the instrument of your choice drop out vocals or guitar or both and band plays

This is probably the way I'm gonna go. But here's my question. I use an an iPad for gigs, but an android phone (probably would use phone when something pops into my head or want to randomly add a song to a list). Would I need to buy the app twice? It looks like I can log into the web version, maybe that's the way to go.

Thanks for that review. One question left: Is it possible to see the total running time of a setlist?

[emilloffler]

I have a problem after buying Songbook Pro online and installing. When I create a new song by typing it in myself and saving it won't scroll. I've been through all the settings and still it does work. Yet if I import a song it does scroll. I'm very disappointed because I really thought it would all go well. And the chords I type in over the words turn into numbers on the main screen after saving.

Thank you for the review Emma. Yes the app that I’m currently using OnSong does all this but they switched to a subscription model and depending on what tier you subscribe you are limited to how many songs you can import. I let my subscription lapse and now I can use the app but can’t import/export any new songs. Needless to say I’m looking for a new app and I think this is it. One question please, Can you change the color of the chords? Not a deal breaker but I feature I like in OnSong. Thanks again.

How can I cha ge the color of say, one particular verse or Chorus?

[sergioavila]

Hi, someone using sonogbookpro to build a stage prompter?

[henrykc]

Where do you get the songs itself from?

[rtogurl]

Hi, great video. Where do do import song lists from?
