One of the best features in the SongBook is the ability to create your own set lists. We’ve added a new feature that makes it easier to build a set list while searching through songs, without leaving the page you’re on!

When viewing a song, there is a new tab available. When you click on the Add to set tab, you are shown a list of your upcoming set lists. You can add the current song to a set list, or jump to viewing or editing a set.

Add to set

If you want to start a new set list, you can do that as well. Just click Create a new set…. Choose the date, location and theme, click Create set, and a new set will be created with the current song already added.

ImportFor those of you with existing chord charts in Word, PDF, or other unstructured text formats, there is now an easier way to add those songs to your SongBook. We have added a new import that takes chords and lyrics on separate lines, and merges them together into the format used by the SongBook.

Take a look at the SongBook help for more info, or just click on the Import an existing chord chart link in your SongBook to try it out!

OpenSongWe’re always looking for ways to help you add songs to your SongBook, so we’re happy to announce a new import feature. If you already have chord charts in the OpenSong format, now you can easily add them to your SongBook.

One of the most requested features for our SongBook service has finally arrived: you can now resize the font in the chord charts generated by the SongBook! When you edit a song in your SongBook, you’ll see a new Font size field. When you change this, you can see a live preview of what the song will look like at that size:
