Long gone are the days of carrying multiple books and a heavy duty music stand to gigs. Everything I need is easily accessible with the swipe if a finger. It’s so cool to do a song search and have iGig Book present every version of the song from any books that are loaded is terrific! Love the app!
iGigBook has become my inseparable "gig buddy." It is the most useful, intelligently designed PDF reader for the gigging musician. It contains all the essential features and tools that make it quite effective on the gig & easy to use & navigate through. Thanks!
No more dragging fake books on the gig.
In the old days, I would bring eight different real books to a gig, in a shoulder bag weighing 10 to 15 pounds. No more. Now I can carry 30 in a single iPad. IGigBook features indexes to the most common fake books, which allows for a quick search of song titles. So no more thumbing through pages to try to find a song. That, plus the ability to quickly generate playlists and share them,Make it an in valuable tool to any working jazz musician.
Goodbye paper .. hello I gig book
Great tool for the digital storage and retrieval of your music charts.
Happy to help. Thanks for igig book.
I’m a new user and find this less than adequate. Too much tinkering and no real help in identifying pdf files of fake books so it becomes little more than an indexing tool but you have to find the files to index which can be frustrating and tedious. I’ll probably give up with it and try forScore as there see to be more readily available standard jazz Real Books. I wrote the first paragraph shortly after initially buying the app. I actually am Les’s satisfied the more I use it. They send you all over the internet cresting yet more passwords to download free products which I was never able to get. The time I’ve spent trying to learn how to use the app would have been much better spent practicing with an old fashioned book. I keep saying it’s got to be easier than this but I just keep getting led in circles getting no where. Consequently I just took a star off my initial rating. If you want to spend hours trying to figure out how to best use this app then go for it. I’m going back to practice!
I give this app a 5 Star Rating! It is a tremendous data base for reference purposes, this app is an indispensable tool for all my charts and musical arrangements. I depend on it for so many things that I would be totally lost without it. I use it extensively on all my gigs. It gets better all the time!
In general I like this app and use it on almost all my gigs where I need charts. There are a few quirks that keep it from being five stars, mostly to do with it sometimes not matching pages in the books when I look up a particular tune. Also, if you use the editing feature it makes the file size of the chart MUCH larger and it takes much longer to load.
