Events

Top-level containers that represent a performance, gig, or concert. Events can contain multiple setlists and manage crew members.

Examples: "Wedding at Grand Hotel", "Rock Festival 2025", "Coffee Shop Acoustic"

Setlists

Ordered collections of songs and breaks within an event. You can have multiple setlists per event for different sets or scenarios.

Examples: "Set 1", "Acoustic Set", "Encore", "Background Music"

Crew Members

People involved in your event who can receive messages and view the performance. Add band members, sound engineers, and stage crew.

Examples: "Sound Engineer", "Lighting Tech", "Bass Player", "Stage Manager"

Live Mode

When a setlist goes live, it becomes the active performance setlist. Changes sync in real-time, and the view link shows the current state.

Only one setlist per event can be live at a time.
