Aaron Short (AeroUSA here) talked briefly about this topic in his YouTube livestream today. Apparently Thursday is Gear Day on his livesteam and it sounds like he'll focus a bit on it.
I'm using SongBook Pro and while I'm happy with it overall, it's done some weird things on occasion. The main one is reverting to the original key when I've tried to alter some chords and spacing on one of the songs I imported from UltimateGuitar, which hadn't happend before. Other than that I could quibble but it really helped fill out my gig last weekend with quality adds. |

I just got a cheap bluetooth page turner online and a Fire tablet along with a tablet holder that clips on to my mic stand. Seems to work well and was affordable. Testing an app called mobilesheets that seems to do the trick.

iPad pro isn’t cheap, but if you use it for everything ( email, web, TV, camera, recorder, etc, etc, ) it is a very worthwhile tool. It’s basically the only computer I use, and has been for over 10 years. Mine is now almost 3 years old, and I’ll definitely be upgrading - when the next one comes along, maybe with iPad OS 15 - ;-)

I dont know, maybe Im just getting old, but Ive enthusiastically tried several formats of digital sheets, but in the end, I simply prefer the size and format of old-fashioned paper in slip protectors. I have a few hundred songs, but I pick 10-20 and put them in a 1” binder that fits nicely in my case pocket.
Not trying to be anti-digital, but just find paper easier, more reliable, and comfortable for now. (And yes, I still print my boarding passes, and use them as bookmarks while travelling). Perhaps my biggest obstacle is that my preferred tablet is an iPad-mini, which is too small for sheet music and these eyes.

How many songs do you play?
I have more than 300 songs in Songbook Pro. I play those in my band, with a guitar playing partner and alone. For me that’s too many to remember.

When not memorizing everything, iPad Pro/Finale Pro in a holder on a stand, Cicada Page Flip (bluetoothand has a forward and back pedal). iPad is more than bright enough on sunny days.

I googled laptops after reading this tread. A big pad is expensive. I could get a 14" lenovo chromebook för 2-300.
Would be great if you could use one of those. |

Of course this all changes now that I just had cataract surgery and vision is very much improved.

It could also be possible to have a standard screen and connect a mobile or a rasbarry pi to such a screen. |

You can get a binder, a ream of 3 hole paper, and a box of crayons for under $25 - that’ll work too!
