Setlists

Plan your live performances with setlists. Organize your songs, track durations, and use Stage View for on-stage reference.

Overview

Setlists help you plan what songs to play and in what order. Create multiple setlists for different shows, share them with the band, and use Stage View during performances.

Plan

Add songs, set the order, and track total duration.

Perform

Use Stage View for easy on-stage navigation through your set.

Share

Share setlists with the band or generate public links.

Creating Setlists

Start a new setlist for each show or event.

Setlist Details

  • Name: Give your setlist a descriptive name (e.g., "Summer Festival 2024")
  • Description: Add notes about the venue, audience, or set goals

Drag-and-Drop Ordering

Reorder songs by dragging them to new positions. Build your set flow with openers, high-energy peaks, and closers.

Setlist Entries

Each song in your setlist can include helpful performance details.

Entry Fields

  • Title: Song name
  • Duration: Estimated length (helps track total set time)
  • Key: Musical key for quick reference
  • BPM: Tempo for click track or metronome
  • Notes: Performance notes, cues, or reminders

Total Duration

The setlist automatically calculates total running time based on individual song durations. Plan your set to fit your time slot.

Quick Reference

Key and BPM are visible at a glance. Great for bands using backing tracks or in-ear click.

Stage View

A full-screen presentation view optimized for on-stage use. Stage View is the setlist reader you run on your own device on stage — it is not Go Live, which broadcasts your audio to the band in real time.

Stage View Features

  • Full-screen display with large, readable text
  • Current song prominently displayed with key and BPM
  • Easy navigation to previous and next songs
  • Performance notes visible for the current song

Sharing Setlists

Share setlists with band members or create public links.

Band Access

All band members can view setlists. Members with setlist permissions can edit and reorder.

Public Links

Generate a shareable link for venues, sound engineers, or promoters who need to see the setlist.

History & Versioning

Changes to setlists are tracked so you can see how your set evolved.

What's Tracked

  • Songs added or removed
  • Order changes
  • Entry details updated

Setlists and Shows

A show's planned set is one of your setlists, not a separate copy.

  • Start it on the show's Planned set card: an empty set titled after the show, or a copy of one of your setlists (the original stays as it is). When you plan a gig from the calendar, the gig's setlist comes along. The gig on the calendar always points at the same setlist.
  • Edit it here as usual; the show always shows the current version. On show day the show page has a one-tap link to its Live Mode (Stage View).
  • Planned for: a setlist that is a show's plan lists that show (with its date, and whether it's upcoming, tonight or played) on the setlist page, one tap back to the show.
  • Locked sets: once the band locks the set on the show, the setlist can't have songs added, removed, reordered or renamed, here or anywhere else. The setlist page says so and links to the show, where anyone in the band (not guests) can unlock it. Live Mode keeps recording song timings on a locked set.
  • After the gig, Copy the planned setlist copies its songs once into the show's own Setlist as played. Editing that copy never changes the setlist, so you can reuse it for the next show.
