Stage Traxx 3

Best App

Been using ST for many years now. Saxophone and Backing tracks is my main income during summer season. This app can do everything, adjust the tracks high low mids, volume, assign pdf to each track, crossfade. Works on iPhone, iPad and Mac with no hickups. Not to mention this is a one time purchase, no annoying fees.

The app works very well and is intuitive. I love the fact that you can have multiple tracks for one song and mark the verse or chorus and have them repeat on the fly, really great for live performances.

I haven't used too too many of these apps, I know there are others, but ST3 is killer. does everything I need. I can integrate multiple audio tracks, clicks, it will scroll through my charts as I play so I can be totally hands free, it will trigger midi messages if you program it to do so. It's slick, it shows me all the info I want to see. It uses the iPads class-compliant USB interface, so it can send multiple channels of audio to a mixer or other audio interface rather than just a L/R headphone mix on which you can effectively only get a mono backing track, since you'd need the other side for a click. I use this to send a click, and a cue track, all separate from the backing tracks. Some singers (like mine), don't love the click too loud, so I can turn it down just for them, while still leaving the cues loud. Also, the multitracks are configurable, so if, for example, my keyboard player can't make a gig, I could choose to turn on the keys track just for that gig. I only have one suggestion to improve: it would be great if ST3 could play a midi file along with the audio. Currently we can use midi output to control lights, other equipment preset changes, etc. but this has to be programmed in manually. Would be awsome if we could just drop in a midi file with the appropriate CC/PC messages.

All of the sudden tracks will not upload from any platform to the app. I can’t get any support. This was a great app. Now it is worthless.

I've used OnSong (OS) for 15 years. I wasn't looking for a new sheet music app. Luckily I came across Stage Track Three (ST3). In OS, I color code my lyrics. Verses are blue, chouse yellow. At first I had difficulty understanding how to make ST3 look and behave like OS. Once I started getting use to the layout and commamds, it got better and better. I love how I can mute tracks, adjust each track individually and have the lyrics highlight on the correct line in time with the song. So after a little learning curve, I now have a new sheet music app, loaded with all my backing tracks. Big thanks to Peter who answered all my questions promptly and for making the best app for use with backing tracks. David

The more I see what it can do the more I Love IT!

Thank you so much for this software. We have used it for many years for our church specials and it has never failed

By far the most versatile and useful lyrics and live music performance app I’ve ever used. I was able to very quickly build my 300 song library into this. I have it with me on my phone and iPad. It even can do midi programming changes and light control unbelievably good value for $25.

Used stage traxx for the first time yesterday, I was so blown away how easy it was to run, just using my iPad on stage. I used to use a laptop for music and an iPad for words and once you get used to setting it up, it was very user-friendly, just give yourself some time to set the app up to your music and words, but it’ll be worth every minute of your time again this is amazing app for the one man band acts out there.
