  1. SongBook+ User Guide

Remotely Controlling SongBook+ (Foot Pedals, Gestures, Face, MIDI)

Many functions of SongBook+ can also be controlled remotely.

  • With foot pedals that simulate an external keyboard

  • With foot pedals that send MIDI commands

  • With finger gestures (swiping or tapping with 2 or 3 fingers)

  • With facial expressions (blinking, opening mouth, ...)

Up to version 6.3, the settings for foot pedals and finger gestures are directly found on the first level of settings.

From version 6.4, they can be found in a new "Remote Control" group along with the new settings for controlling with facial expressions.

On the following pages, you will find more information about these 4 types of remote control.

Additionally, you can remotely open a song via MIDI in SongBook+. More information can be found here: Open Song Remotely via MIDI.

And you can also connect multiple devices with SongBook+, so that a song selected on one device will automatically open on the other devices. This is very practical for bands. More information can be found here: Connecting Multiple iPads with SongBook+
