My Lyric Book - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

Every singer as an A4 folder of songs they bring to rehersal, but now they can have all of their lyrics with them all the time, on their iPhone. You can also create setlists of songs which can be edited and reordered. Setlists and individual songs shared with the rest of the band by email, iMessage, Airdrop, or printing them out.

Rather than searching online for other other people's versions of songs, this app displays your lyrics, which you've formatted as you want them on your computer. You can create them in Pages, WOrd, pdf, rtf or txt format then simply transfer them to your phone using the iTunes file transfer system (on the Apps tab for your device), or using the file manager app on your device. While initially designed for singers, PDF scores look amazing, so the whole band can get in on the act.

Not only does My Lyric Book remember your lyrics and set lists, but songs can be tagged with a tempo for the built in metronome, or linked to tracks in your iTunes library so you can refer to a recorded version or play a backing track from within the app. You can even send and receive midi patch changes, so selecting a song programs your keyboard for you (or have your lyrics selected for you via midi)!

If the rest the band is using the app too, then you can all sync up, so that the band leader can select songs and have them automatically selected on everyones screens. (Note this DOES NOT distribute the lyrics, but selects each band member's version, so each band member can see their own parts as they've set up their devices).

Of course your lyrics look even better on an iPad, but an iPhone or iPod has plenty of screen space to display lyrics and you can always have it in your pocket.

You can use Airturn BT-105(http://www.airturnaffiliate.com/idevaffiliate/idevaffiliate.php?id=157) or Pageflip Cicada pedals to scroll through your lyrics. You can select what each pedal does in the Settings app, though note that if you only have two pedals they're probably numbered 1 and 3 - that's just how the BT pedals work.

NOTE: No lyrics are included with the App. It displays lyrics you've already prepared.

HANDY HINTS:
You can swipe to advance to the next song, or back to the previous one.
You can email songs to yourself as attachments.
If the auto-rotation gets in the way, remember you can turn it off in preferences.
Normally you can't delete songs incase you wipe it by accident during a gig (ouch!). You need to enable this in preferences too.
To rename a set-list just click on it while in edit mode.
Check the "support" link at the top this page for more info.

Sehr brauchbare App

My Lyric Book ist eine sehr brauchbare App. funktioniert sehr zuverlässig. Auch mit einem Pedal weiterschalten geht gut. Ein Feature würde ich mir wünschen und zwar mit dem Finger oder mit einem Stift Anmerkungen direkt im PDF zuschreiben.

Perfektes Tool für Musiker

My Lyric Book ist das perfekte Tool Musiker, aber seit der Aktualisierung auf iOS 8 ist die Darstellung der Schrift in rtf Texten viel zu klein und lässt sich auch nicht vergrößern.

Bravo!

Eine wirklich perfekte App für die Bühne. Läuft seit vielen Gigs sehr stabil, schnell und zuverlässig. Die Synchronisation über Bluetooth lässt die Anwendung locker bis 10 Stunden ohne externe Stromversorgung laufen. Sehr gut!

Als Musiker

einer Band möchte ich diese App am Wochenende ausprobieren. Die Gestaltung ist einfach aber genial. Kein unnötiger Schnickschnack. Die Setlist Verwaltung gefällt mir auch sehr gut. Hervorzuheben ist auf alle Fälle die Verknüpfung nach iTunes. Ein bestimmter Text kann mit einem bestimmten Song verbunden werden. (Karaoke Files in iTunes) mächtige Idee ;-). Schaltflächen für Play und Stop bei der Textanzeige wären der Hammer! Wenn die versprochenen Updates kommen gibt´s auf alle Fälle Fünf Sterne. P.S. Eine Dropbox Anbindung wünsche ich mir persönlich sehr ;-). Vielen Dank für das Programm!
