Get started

From the installer to the downbeat.

Watch the two-minute tour

1. 01

   Open it on the Mac

   Install Band Server and launch it. The first open needs internet so the 60-day trial can start.

2. 02

   Fill the library

   Add your songs. If you play with Ableton Live, scan the set so each song can launch its scene.

3. 03

   Build the set

   Order the songs for the show. Check BPM, key, and time before you leave the rehearsal room.

4. 04

   Share the QR

   Players join from a phone or tablet on the same Wi-Fi. No accounts.

5. 05

   Give each screen a job

   Lyrics for the vocal, a chart for the horn, drums, keys, or a backdrop. Each device keeps its own channel.

6. 06

   Press Play

   The screens follow the current song. Map a MIDI controller if you want the transport under your hands.

When the trial ends, the key arrives by email. Enter it in Band Server on that Mac.
