Everything in MidiPrompter

One app. Every tool your band needs on stage — the perfect companion to your MainStage or Ableton Live backing-track rig.

Lyrics & Performance
📜

ChordPro Format

Full ChordPro spec — inline chords, section directives, tempo, comments. Import from any ChordPro editor.

⚡

MIDI Program Change → Instant Song Load

Step on a patch and the song loads on every device — lyrics, chords, scroll cues, tempo, lighting. Zero lag.

📍

Bar-Accurate Auto-Scroll

MIDI clock drives scrolling. Tap bar markers during rehearsal and the app learns your song structure.

⏱

Section Countdown Timers

Set a bar count for any section. A large 4–3–2–1 countdown fires before it arrives.

👁

Per-Device Section Visibility

Each device shows or hides sections independently. The guitarist sees only verses. The vocalist sees everything.

🔠

Adjustable Font Size

Each device remembers its own font size. The keyboard player 10 feet back sets a larger font.


MIDI & Connectivity
🎹

Built-In Metronome

Web Audio API lookahead metronome. Set BPM per song. Auto-disables when external MIDI clock is detected.

📡

BPM Auto-Detection

Reads BPM from incoming MIDI clock in real time. Shows live in the transport bar.

📱

Multi-Device via QR Code

Scan the QR code on any device on the same WiFi. Phones, tablets, laptops — all in perfect sync.

⇄

Gradient Loop FX

Smoothly cycle between two colours over a configurable bar count, synced to the MIDI clock.

⚡

True Colour Strobe FX

Crisp on/off strobing in any colour — from a single beat pulse to a 64× machine-gun strobe, locked to the clock.

✶

Moving-Head Control

Pan/tilt movement paths with per-fixture home positions and invert. One tap sends every mover back to its rest position.

🎥

Chase Sequencer

Step-based colour chases across your rig — sweeps, bounces, builds and strobes, each step shown in its real colour.

🎲

Auto Lights & Count-In

Let the app cycle presets automatically within a bar range, with a count-in to hold the rig through a click-in before lights start.

🌙

Idle Scene & Standby

A standby look holds the moment the clock stops between songs, and clears the instant the next song starts.

🎬

Ready-Made Looks

Includes a library of 80s new-wave colour presets and chase sequences — drop them in and tweak to taste.
