Gig Songbook is a stage-ready lyrics and setlist app for musicians. Keep songs, chords, notes, audio tracks, and score pages in one place — fast to edit, easy to perform with, and available offline.
SONGS & SETLISTS
Build your repertoire with title, artist, lyrics, chords, key, BPM, notes, and labels. Sort your library by title, recent changes, artist, or label. Copied lyrics on the clipboard? One tap on Paste as New Song creates a prefilled song — no typing. Create ordered setlists with date/venue, drag to reorder, and lock before gigs to prevent accidental edits. Swipe or long-press a song to add it to one or more setlists; long-press a setlist to edit, duplicate (Save As), or lock it. Every song shows which setlists it appears in.
Split a set into labeled sections — Set 1, Break, Encore
PERFORMANCE & REHEARSE
Use full-screen dark mode for live playing and rehearsal. Quick song navigation, auto-hiding controls, seekable audio playback, and optional lyrics-follow mode keep your hands free on stage. When the controls hide, a floating close button stays in the corner so you can always exit. In a setlist, each song advances to the next automatically when its audio finishes (or when a duration-paced auto-scroll reaches the end), so your set rolls on hands-free — and the controls stay up on an automatic advance so you can see what's playing now. For songs without a backing track, hands-free auto-scroll paces the lyrics from the song's duration (or BPM), with a live speed control and an elapsed/total readout. A subtle gig clock shows the current section, time elapsed and remaining, and whether you're running over or ahead of plan.
LYRICS SYNC
Auto Sync uses Shazam + online timed lyrics; Manual Tap Sync lets you tap each line in time. Active lines highlight and auto-scroll during playback.
CHORD TOOLS
See chord diagrams for guitar and piano — switch instruments with a tap. Guitar shows the standard shapes spread across the neck (open, barre, and mid-neck positions); piano shows root position plus inversions. Your choice is remembered per song and per setlist. Transpose live (Pro) from the performance screen without changing stored lyrics — the transposition is remembered per song, and per song within a setlist.
SCORE PAGES & SONG IMAGES
Attach lyric sheets, chord charts, or full scores. Reorder pages and swipe them in Performance/Rehearse mode.
Whether a song shows its images or the text lyrics is remembered per song — and per song within a setlist.
ICLOUD SYNC
Songs and setlists sync across devices via your private iCloud container.

STEM SEPARATION & PRACTICE TOOLS (PRO)
Try free for 7 days, then unlock with Pro. A practice aid, not studio-quality mixing: create 2-stem, 4-stem, or 6-stem (+guitar, piano) versions, switch Original/Stems, and mix each part on its own waveform — tap an instrument to mute it, tap its speaker for a slider or hold and slide to set the level. Slow a song down or speed it up without changing pitch, shift the pitch in semitones, and set an A-B loop to drill a tricky passage.
