Objections

  • No offline mode yet

    From 2 comments
    • Interesting. But do I get it right: if on band rehersal or public gig, if offline, then no sheet music? Or is there local bufferung / offline mode?

    • Yeah, no offline mode yet, but we're planing to open source the core SQLite to GraphQL engine underlying Airsequel. Then you could simply have the SQLite database and the GraphQL…

    • There’s also a Mac ForScore app.

    • I'm a pro musician and play a lot of gigs (and mix a lot of live music) on a 2016 12.9" ipad pro. I used Forscore and have a bunch of fakebooks and custom charts on it. Even with…

  • MobileSheets

    From 2 comments
    • MobileSheets, a cheap foot pedal, and a Fire Tablet work just fine for me. I use genius scan on my Pixel 7 to grab digital images of the music.
