peter Great idea exactly what we were talking about earlier for people wanting lyrics only and no need to lock themselves to ST3.
But there are major issues with it.
By the way i am testing this on the BETA version so i am not sure perhaps it is working better on ST3.
I didnt even know what this feature did.
Firstly it is not obvious to what you can use this for because of its label Placeholder means nothing to me but Text folder or Lyrics folder gets my interest immediately.
The issue with it in my beta version is when you choose the Lyrics only song the next song in yellow that appears under it is attached to the now selected blue song if i choose the next song elswhere the blue song gets placed above it and my now showing text dissapears no matter what i choose the two are stuck together, the only way to clear this is to hit stop button then as long as i dont choose the text only song again it behaves normally as soon as i choose the so called placeholder song it locks the now and next song together again.
First thoughts
I think the placeholder songs should be a lot more distinguisable to normal backing songs by colour at least and if possible text as well, although room might be an issue, because you might be using a mixture of both it would simplify creating a set list and give you notice that you are approaching a no backing song that you need to perform fully live.
I havent fully tested it to how it actually performs with foot pedal control with longer lyrics but i can see myself using this feature a lot in the future as i have been looking for a good lyrics display only librarian without all the complexity.
It would mean having all my musical performing needs in one neat place available on iphone as well which is with me at all times.
Peter are these placeholder Lyrics songs only stored in the same SONG folder and is it possible to have multiple text files loaded in to the SONG folder and for them to be immediately created as Placeholder songs with their respective names?
Thanks Damir
