The Hive Mind: Syncing Every Band Member's iPad to the Leader

You're leading a 10-piece band. You decide to skip a song in the setlist because you're running late. You shout "Skip to 'Mustang Sally'!" The trumpet player didn't hear you. The drummer is already counting off. Half the band plays one song, half plays another. Chaos.

The Old Way: Yelling instructions across the stage and hoping everyone is paying attention.

The Bandfix Way: Receive MIDI Commands.

  • Master/Slave Mode: Designate one iPad (the leader's) as the Master.
  • Automatic Page Turns: When the leader swipes to the next song, every other iPad on stage instantly switches to that song.
  • No Confusion: Everyone is always looking at the same chart, guaranteed.

Pro Tip: Connect all devices via Bluetooth MIDI or a local Wi-Fi network for wireless sync.
