When you are playing an instrument and singing harmony, a tablet on a music stand is not read like a page of prose. You parse it in 200-millisecond glances from three feet away. Bobolink turns a band's songbook into high-contrast 4-bar Nashville rhythm charts and lyric sheets that open offline every time and keep every stand together.
Every tool in Bobolink serves the path from an early voice memo to a settled stage arrangement, while keeping the stage view calm and uncluttered when it is time to perform.
Switch instantaneously between full 4-bar chord grids, compact single-screen Dense views, typeset lyric and harmony sheets, and a 1-tap Showtime View. Transpose into any key or Nashville numbers on the spot.
Play band rehearsal recordings right inside the chart with draggable A/B loops, saved loop chips, and pitch-preserving slow-down from 50% to 100%. An on-device beat and harmony map keeps the bar highlight and metronome locked to the recording.
Capture song ideas or in-chart rehearsal takes with crash-safe 1-second timeslices in local storage. Edit bars directly on your tablet, import ChordPro, MusicXML, iReal Pro, or PDFs, or draft a bar-locked chart from a voice memo.
Link tablets across the stage over local Wi-Fi or a pocket stage router. Calling an audible song change, transposing a key, or starting a count-in keeps every linked stand on the same measure, even if venue internet drops.
Coordinate setlists, chart suggestions, and reference recordings across band members without running a central server. When a new chart is published to the band, its practice take and beat map travel right along with it.
Author entirely inside the portal or pair with your band's own Google Sheet and Google Drive folder. Export deterministic .bchart and .bpack files anytime so your band always owns its work.
