The only added feature I can see is chord charts. My banjo player uses this one and he loves it.
FIRE 7 TABLET IREAL PRO PRO
SongSheet Pro seems like a more polished version of setlist helper.
FIRE 7 TABLET IREAL PRO PDF
Imports PDF and even photos so you can really organize everything here. It has auto scroll, but not sure how it functions with a page pedal. You can import lyrics and chord/lyric sheets (like Ultimate Guitar etc) and edit, change key, font size. Setlist helper is a great app for organizing. If I was using on stage or using lots of standard notation, I’d definitely want ~12”. I got the 9.7” (discontinued size I believe the basic one is ~10.2” now) but I just use it for woodshed and rehearsals.
FIRE 7 TABLET IREAL PRO ANDROID
But watching my guitar players Android crash all the time didn’t help anything he eventually got an iPad… I chose iPad simply because we already use MacBooks and iPhones. (Also - none of setting this up was too overwhelming to figure out - this coming from a guy who still doesn't own a cellphone) And I use Forescore for the ability to edit my music (I can write words/notations/whatever on it in different thicknesses as well as erase any size mark, all just by swiping my finger). I bought an inexpensive Donner, which works fine for scrolling forward or backwards, though I need more practice turning with my foot mid-song). Make sure whatever device you get is recent enough to operate a wireless page turner (it seemed the next logical step - just more GAS, I guess. Though ebay-used, the battery on my device lasts for 5-6 hours easily (and I charge it when it gets too low, so haven't exhausted it). Going from a binder on a stand to a device, this all has made for a smoother transition, too. I don't think it looks too large from an audience's point of view (and because it's larger, I can lower it more than if I had a normal-sized one). I also was thinking that my eyes-sight will only get worse (not better), so was planning ahead. I bought a used Ipad Pro with a 12.9" screen (I tried using a "normal" smaller screen, and found myself leaning in and squinting). I found I needed a larger screen due to my aged eye-sight. I can only speak about my own recent experience this past spring, and it concerns screen size. I want to do it right the first time, but I don’t like spending more than I need to spend. What kind of average battery time can I expect out of one?

Got suggestions for both Apple and Android?Ĥ. I have no idea what some decent software for organizing your music and making it easy to find quickly exists. Obviously the bigger the screen, the better but how big is too big? Same for RAM and storage space as I can’t imagine there being a need for the.highest speed and storage just to flip thru sheet music and DL some MP3’s sometimes.ģ. Will I look like a ne’er do well if I don’t have an iPad? Or would a solid Android tablet that doesn’t cost as much still make me acceptable and be as easy to use as iPads seem?Ģ. And I never make a major purchase without research and lots of it, especially something that I never bought before. But it appears that the entire reading world has converted. Plenty of desktops and a laptop, never a tablet.
