Gig Songbook
An Easy Songbook for Musicians
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New: control your set with a MIDI pedal. Next song, previous song, scroll lyrics and turn score pages — plus lyrics and chords right inside Loopy Pro.
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. Add songs to setlists with a swipe, and duplicate a setlist with Save As. Split a set into labeled sections — Set 1, Break, Encore — each with its own song count and length, and see the total length of every set at a glance.
PERFORMANCE & REHEARSE
Use full-screen dark mode for live playing and rehearsal. Quick song navigation, seekable audio, and optional lyrics-follow keep your hands free on stage. 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. 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. 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.
IMPORT WORKFLOWS (PRO)
• Improved TXT/PDF/MD lyrics import with a review step before saving.
• Edit title, artist, and labels before import.
• Preview parsed lyrics.
• Handle duplicates with Overwrite or Skip Existing.
• New Import PDF Score workflow: import one or more PDF scores, review each item, preview rendered pages, and import as swipeable score pages.
• Import audio files as songs with metadata detection and optional Shazam-based identification when tags are missing.
ONLINE SONG CATALOG (PRO)
Search by title or artist and import multiple songs at once.
EXPORT & BACKUP (PRO)
Export your song library or setlists as JSON, including audio, stems, and song images for portable backups.
STEM SEPARATION & PRACTICE TOOLS (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. Locked setlists keep each song's stem mix and play it back as set up.
LOOPY PRO PLUGIN (PRO)
Your lyrics and chords inside Loopy Pro or any AUv3 host. Change songs with a tap or by MIDI from a footswitch.
Every Pro feature is free for 7 days from install. After that, Pro is a one-time purchase.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• Cooler realtime stems: on-device separation now eases off when enough audio is already buffered, and when the iPhone is warm or Low Power Mode is on — so it doesn't keep running at full power for the whole song.
• Tidier Settings: labels now have their own page — Settings → Labels → Manage Labels — where you add, reorder and delete them, and a deleted label can be brought back with Undo for a few seconds.
• MIDI Control has its own MIDI section in Settings.
• Section explanations now sit behind a small ⓘ next to each heading, so Settings is shorter to scroll through. Tap it to read what a section does.
