G'day, apologies if this has already been addressed elsewhere. Is there an iPad app (Yamaha or 3rd party) that can help me manage song performance settings and set lists from an iPad for a MODX+ . background info: For a typical song, I might use two or three performances with layers/splits and then use a common transpose across those performances (my capabilities are limited to 6 keys out of 12 :-), don't ask). Trying to reliably hit the right performance on the Yamaha touchscreen in a Live Set can be error-prone, in the environment I operate in. I have a 13 inch iPad Pro that I would like to use as a controller in addition to being a Pianoteq sound source. Looking for a piece of software that can store/execute and if possible, manage all the performance parameters. Thanks heaps

Have you looked into using the Soundmondo app for that? Remove the hyphens below to create valid urls

If you search for 'yamaha modx+ ipad soundmondo set list' or similar you will find plenty of articles and videos showing how to use SoundMondo for that.

In order to switch to a Performance using an external device, any MIDI host that can transmit the LSB/MSB and PC messages would suffice.  There are several such applications available on the iPad that can also help organize a show's worth of Performances.

 

In addition to what's been mentioned ...

 

Yamaha has promoted something called Camelot Pro.  It's a 3rd Party app that offers a lot more than just a setlist - and maybe/probably more than you need.

 

Set List Maker is something someone else has recently mentioned using.  They had some question on how to get the MIDI messages to work - but I know it would suffice and maybe be more scaled back.

 

Songbook works although the "targets" aren't big squares.

 

... I'm sure there's more.

Camelot Pro looks very promising for the iPad. Thanks for the tip, so much appreciated.
