BandHelper

Much more than a "songbook" app, BandHelper can organize your band and power your live show.

• Send standardized gig invitations and confirmations
• Maintain one organized source for gig details
• Give sub players all the charts and recordings they need for a gig

REHEARSE EFFICIENTLY
• Sync set list, lyric and chord updates as you work
• Play reference recordings instantly, with speed and loop controls
• Transpose chords for different singers, capo positions or horn keys
• Review notes and voice memos from previous rehearsals

PERFORM SEAMLESSLY
• Configure keyboards, effects and lighting as you change songs
• Play backing tracks, click tracks and video presentations
• Customize the interface or use foot switches for hands-free control
• Add custom fields for personal notes and reminders

MANAGE YOUR BAND PROFESSIONALLY
• Track income/expenses and let band members view their earnings
• Organize your booking and industry contacts
• Build stage plots to send to venues
• Generate invoices to send to clients
