Set Lists

Set lists organize songs into a playable sequence for rehearsal, worship, or live performance.

Each set list has:

  • a name
  • an ordered list of songs
  • a target key per song
  • a capo value per song

Creating a set list

Go to Set Lists and click New Set List.

Enter a set list name, then save it.

After that, you can begin adding songs.

Adding songs

Inside the set list editor, use Add Song to open the song selection dialog.

For each entry, you can choose:

  • the song from your library
  • the target key
  • the capo position

This lets one chord sheet be reused in different musical contexts.

Editing songs inside a set list

Each set list item supports actions like:

  • Edit
  • Duplicate
  • Move up
  • Move down
  • Delete

This makes it easy to build alternate arrangements or repeated sections.

Reordering songs

Set lists support drag-and-drop ordering.

You can also move items up and down using the provided controls.

When you save, Team Chords stores the current order.

Empty-state behavior

If a set list has no songs yet, the editor shows an empty-state prompt encouraging you to add one.

This is a good time to confirm:

  • the set list name is correct
  • your library has the songs you need
  • you want to use transposition or capo changes per song

Sharing and previewing

Saved set lists support:

  • Copy Link — copies a shareable link
  • Preview — opens the live/public view of the set list

This is useful for:

  • rehearsals
  • sending charts to teammates
  • print preparation
  • live display workflows

Saving behavior

When you save a set list, Team Chords:

  1. saves the set list metadata
  2. synchronizes the set list outputs/songs
  3. preserves ordering and song settings

If you create a brand new set list, the app saves the set list first and then creates the related outputs.

Good set list workflow

A reliable workflow is:

  1. create the set list
  2. add all songs
  3. set keys and capo values
  4. reorder the list
  5. preview the final result
  6. share or print when ready

Tips for cleaner set lists

  • use clear names like Sunday AM - May 10
  • duplicate songs when you need the same chart twice in one flow
  • use target key for the actual performed key
  • use preview before sending the share link
