As a musician on the side, I've come across a "problem" that I'm hoping someone can help me solve. Here's the "problem":
* I have a group of songs that I play (let's say 50) that is a fairly static list
* I want to be able to plan out set lists based on those songs for various gigs and then print out the set lists in advance
Right now, I'm using a kludgey combination of Excel and Word (Windows guy, but I do have a MBP). It sucks - I make the list of songs in Excel, then I create a separate document for each night (and copy/paste the songs in).
Ideally there's a piece of software that lets me drag and drop the song onto a "view" (or whatever) that I can save/retrieve/print. I'm just trying to simplify the process of creating a set list. Sure, I could create it but it seems like this should exist already (but I can't find it).
Any ideas?
Only ones I know of (from research a few years ago on FOSS apps for this) http://opensong.org/d/about, http://www.easyslides.com/index.php/features, http://openlp.org/en/features, http://www.lyricue.org/.
There are very mature paid apps for this sort of thing too.
HTH.
