Setlist Builder

Build better setlists. Take them straight to the gig.

Create setlists from your song library, calculate set durations, attach charts and notes, share them with your musicians and use Live View when you're on stage.

How it works

One platform,
one process.

Build your repertoire once, then turn it into the right running order for each event.

1

Build your song library

Store your songs together with useful information such as key, BPM, duration and attachments.

2

Create the setlist

Choose songs, reorder them and add any gig-specific labels or notes.

3

Attach it to the gig

Connect one or more setlists to the relevant Band Pencil event.

4

Use it live

Share it with performers or open Setlist Live View when it's time to play.

From planning to performance

Your setlist shouldn't live in a completely separate system from your gig.

Keep your songs, running order, musicians, attachments and event information connected from the planning stage through to the performance.
