Everything for the gig, in one app

From the first rehearsal to the last encore: write it, share it with the band, and play it on stage.

Chords & Lyrics

Write charts in ChordPro+ — one source that gives a singer view with chords above the lyrics, a musicians grid with bars and repeats, and a drummer view with cues. Transpose to any key in one tap.

Sheet music for every musician

Add PDFs, photos or scanned pages and assign each score to a role — bass, drums, lead guitar. Every musician sees only their own part. Annotate with Apple Pencil.

The Score Editor New

Write real notation with MuseScore-style keyboard entry, or by hand with Apple Pencil on iPad: chords, lyrics, repeats, voices, drums, guitar and bass tab — and full scores for the whole band, with a part for every musician. Hear it back with chords and swing. What you see is what you print, as PDF or MusicXML.

Play & Practise

Play the backing track from your own music, Apple Music or Spotify. Change the key of your bought songs without changing the tempo, or slow them down to practise. Visual and audible metronome included.

Setlists

Build setlists with song count and total duration calculated for you. On stage, swipe or use a page-turn pedal to go from song to song — or let the setlist play through, each song in its own key.

Share with your band

Send a whole setlist as one .bandset file — songs, chords, PDFs and notation scores included. Export charts and setlists as PDF for print, or as a list for spreadsheets.

Yours and private

Your songs stay on your device and in your own iCloud. No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Read the privacy policy.
