About Band Central for Musicians

Manage your band. Perform with confidence. Band Central keeps your lyrics, chords, and setlists organized and ready to go, whether you're rehearsing, gigging, or jamming. Everything syncs across your devices and your whole band in real time, and it keeps working offline when the signal drops. BUILT FOR BANDS Create and manage multiple bands from a single account. Invite band members by email and share the same song library in real time. Each member can set their own default lyric version for any song, so the guitarist sees the chord chart while the vocalist sees the lyrics. Changes sync instantly across all devices so your whole band stays on the same page. SETLISTS THAT WORK ON STAGE Build setlists with drag-and-drop reordering. Insert timed breaks between sets with countdown timers. Swipe through songs during a performance and see total set time at a glance. Add a gig date, location, and notes to keep your schedule organized. LYRICS AND CHORDS YOUR WAY Enter lyrics in ChordPro format with a dedicated editor, or attach a PDF, Word document, or image. Search the web for chords and lyrics and import them directly into your library. Transpose on the fly with sharp and flat options. Scale text size to fit your screen and set auto-scroll speed so your hands stay on your instrument. CHORD DIAGRAMS See fingering diagrams for every chord in a song, right where you need them. Guitar, ukulele, mandolin, bouzouki, and piano are all supported. Diagrams update automatically when you transpose, so the shapes always match the key you are playing. Show them as a "chords used" summary at the top of the song, inline with the lyrics, or as a pinned strip. Label each diagram with fingering, note names, or intervals, and turn on left-handed or capo-aware options. MARK UP YOUR CHARTS Highlight harmonies, draw cues, and jot notes right on any chart with a pen or highlighter in four colors. Works on ChordPro lyrics and imported PDFs alike. Your markings stay separate from everyone else's, so bandmates' notes never collide, and when someone in your band is viewing the same song they see your marks appear in real time. Print or share a marked-up chart as a PDF. ONE SONG, EVERY ARRANGEMENT Keep an acoustic cut, a full-band chart, and horn parts side by side under a single song. Switch versions in a tap, and let each member play from the arrangement that fits their part. METRONOME Tap tempo or dial in BPM with a slider. Choose from wood block, digital click, stick, or silent mode. Set time signatures and count-in measures. Each lyric version can override the song's tempo, perfect when you play the same song at different speeds. FILE ATTACHMENTS Link audio tracks (MP3, WAV, M4A) and documents (PDF, Word, images) to any lyric version. Play audio with full controls right from the lyrics screen. Connect your Dropbox account to sync files across devices and automatically download updated versions. FOOT PEDAL SUPPORT Keep your hands free on stage. Works with AirTurn Bluetooth pedals and standard Bluetooth keyboard pedals. Configure up to 6 pedal ports for scrolling, page turning, auto-scroll, and navigating between songs. CUSTOMIZE YOUR VIEW Format chords, lyrics, section headers, and more independently. Choose fonts, sizes, colors, and styles. Save formatting at the user, band, or individual lyric level. Full dark mode support. ORGANIZE WITH TAGS Create custom tags to categorize songs by genre, set, mood, or anything else. Filter your library instantly. WORKS OFFLINE Songs, lyrics, and setlists are cached locally so you're never stuck loading on stage with a weak signal. Data syncs automatically when you're back online. EXPORT Export songs in ChordPro format to your device or Dropbox. Batch export your entire library with one tap. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

What’s new

Version 4.2 · Updated October 19, 2026

Banjo chord diagrams, Transpose one tap away, and fixes, most of them reported by you. New: Banjo chord diagrams - Banjo (5-string, open G) is now in the chord diagram picker, alongside guitar, ukulele, mandolin, bouzouki and piano. Easier: Transpose is one tap away - Transpose is now at the top of the lyric menu, right under Auto Scroll, instead of inside Display. It shows for chord charts, not PDFs. Fixed: Auto-scroll at the end of a song - On some songs, auto-scroll reached the bottom but the button stayed on Pause, and scrolling back up made it start again by itself. - In a setlist, auto-scroll worked the first time and then would not start again until you left the song and came back. It now works every time. - A {pause} in a song now pauses auto-scroll in a setlist too, with a countdown before it carries on. Fixed: A file you replace in Dropbox now updates - If you replaced a backing track or chart in Dropbox, an iPhone or iPad that already had the old copy kept using it. It now notices the change and downloads the new one. Files you already have still work offline. Clearer: One set of names for Format Lyrics - Saving formatting now says "This lyric only", "My default" and "Band default" in the app, on the website and in the help, instead of three different sets of words. Nothing about how it works has changed. Updated: AirTurn pedal support - Updated to the latest AirTurn software for page turning and scrolling.
