Foot pedals that simulate an external keyboard

SongBook+ supports all foot pedals that simulate an external keyboard and can send one or more of the following keys:

Until version 6.3, the settings for foot pedals are found directly at the first level of the settings.

Starting from version 6.4, they are found in a new group "Remote Control" along with the new settings for control with facial expressions.

For this type of foot pedal to work, the "Keyboard Control" function must be turned off in the iPad or iPhone settings under "Accessibility" in "Keyboards & Text Input."

Otherwise, the operating system uses some of the pressed keys for itself, and SongBook+ can no longer respond to them.

In the settings, you can activate the use of foot pedals and assign the following actions to the keys, among other things:

Do nothing
Move one page forward/backward
Press the start/stop/pause/resume button
Jump to the next song

In the Midi and Bluetooth Monitor, you can see which keys your foot pedal sends.

Of course, these signals don't necessarily have to come from a foot pedal. You can also use a proper external keyboard instead.

With this function, you can use for example the following foot pedals:

AirTurn BT-105/BT-106/DIGIT/QUAD/DUO/PED/PEDpro/BT200S-x () connected via Bluetooth
STOMP from Coda Music Technologies ()
Cicada/Firefly/Dragonfly/Butterfly from PageFlip () connected via Bluetooth
iRig BlueTurn from IK Multimedia () connected via Bluetooth

Here you can find some separate guides for various foot pedals:
