How to Series – Use an I-Pad vs Sheet Music

There are several ways to do this.

  1.   One way is to use the App:  forScore

Automatically Organized:  Instead of worrying about files and folders, forScore lets you add then search or browse by metadata like composer, genre, or key. Menus are generated automatically, so they’re always up to date.

Instantly Available:   Add files from your computer, connect to popular cloud services like Dropbox, OneDrive, and Box, or download and import PDF files from other apps like Safari. Go ahead, take requests.

Half-page Turns:   See the bottom half of the current page and the top half of the next page at the same time for perfect transitions and zero visual interruption. No scrolling, no gimmicks, just an easy solution to an age-old problem.

Hands Free:   Bluetooth or MIDI accessories like the AirTurn PED and iRig Blueboard can make page turn pauses a thing of the past. Just set one on the ground next to you and tap the pedals with your foot to flip between pages.

Repeats:  Handle repeats with style by creating a link between two pages of a score. Tap on a link, and you’ll be taken to the target page where a signal will flash twice, showing you exactly where to begin playing.

For more information, go here.

2.   Another way to do this is to use the App,  Music Stand, which syncs with Planning Center which is an online data base.  Your church may already be using Planning Center, as this is actually a Church Management Software.  The Music Stand app is free, but Planning Center is on a monthly plan.

 

For more information on Music Stand, go here.

Music Stand can be obtained through the Worship Planning Website or it can be obtained through the App Store or through Google Play.

For more information on Planning Center, go here.
