Import & Export

Bring your existing material into Band Central, and take a copy out whenever you want it.

Import from Setlist Helper

Follow the step-by-step Migration Guide. In short: sign in at bandcentral.com, create a band, and use Import to bring in your Setlist Helper songs, lyrics, and files. Run the import on one device — your others fill in through sync.

What file types can I import?

Plain-text (.txt) and ChordPro (.cho, .chopro, .chordpro, .crd, .pro) files as lyrics, PDFs and images as charts, and MP3/M4A/WAV/AIFF as audio. Lyric and document files come in through the Dropbox import; audio can come from your device or Dropbox.

What carries over from Setlist Helper

The migration brings your songs, setlists, lyric text, and metadata (key, tempo, and so on) into Band Central. Your PDF/chart and audio files come across through the Dropbox step: put them in one Dropbox folder, run Import once on a single device, then use Update Dropbox Files on your other devices. Data created in Band Central does not sync back to Setlist Helper — once you switch, treat your old Setlist Helper data as separate.

Export your songs

From the Songs list, open the menu and choose Export to save your catalog as ChordPro (.chordpro) files — compatible with Setlist Helper, OnSong, SongBook+, and other ChordPro apps. For spreadsheet-style exports (CSV or HTML) of your song and setlist lists, use the website.
