Before you begin

  • Three saved, ready presets within your plan quota.
  • Room for a setlist: Free Demo supports 2 lists with 3 songs; Player 5 lists with 10 songs; Stage/Pro removes those quotas.

1. Create the rehearsal list

Use a short rehearsal list to verify order and assignments.Pixel 10a
  • Tap + Setlist to create a list.
  • Choose a preset in the selected setlist; its row actions are on the right.

Tap the current setlist/preset menu and open Setlist manager.

  1. Create a new list named Sunday Rehearsal.
  2. Select the new list and use Add from Library to add your three saved rigs, such as Sunday Piano Pad, Sunday Bright Piano and Sunday Quiet Pad.
  3. Each added member already references its saved preset. Give the presets clear names and put the rows in performance order.
  4. Load the list and confirm all three assigned sounds are available.

2. Set the song context

Store the pad and click choices intentionally for each song.Pixel 10a
  • Enable Change Tempo to apply a song-specific tempo.

Configured song settings can change pad and click on recall; unconfigured presets leave them alone.

  1. Open the first song’s preset/settings action.
  2. Choose its intended pad pack, key and Major/Minor mode. Set a modest volume and decide whether pad playback should begin automatically.
  3. Set its BPM and beats per bar, and enable automatic click start only if intended.
  4. Repeat for the other songs, checking transpose and preset level.

3. Rehearse every transition

Recall and inspect each rig in the live mixer.Pixel 10a
  • Tap the instrument name to open its picker.
  • Drag the channel fader to balance its level.

A setlist is ready only after you have tested it in order.

  1. Recall Opening Song and play a short phrase.
  2. Use Next or the next row to load Response Song; confirm its instrument, key, pad and tempo.
  3. Try your Verse/Chorus states, then continue to Closing Song.
  4. Stop pad/click at the end. Save intentional edits and keep an external copy of important presets.
