Song Details

The Song Details screen lets you edit all metadata and settings for a song. Open it by tapping the details button in the playbar.

The screen has up to four tabs depending on the song content:

• Details — Song metadata (described on this page)
• Audio — Configure audio tracks
• Lyrics — Edit lyrics and chords
• Regions — Set up audio regions (only shown for songs with audio tracks)

A mini player at the bottom provides a play button, waveform with audio regions, and playback time. Drag the waveform to seek to a specific position.

Song Notes

A text field for adding notes to the song. Notes are displayed in song lists.

Metronome

The metronome provides a visual and audible click at the specified tempo. It is not synchronized to audio files and is recommended only for songs without audio tracks. Songs with audio files should use a dedicated click track instead.

Configure the metronome sound and flash color in Settings > Audio > Playback Settings.

Mode

Controls when the metronome plays:

• Disabled — Metronome is off.
• Stop — Plays only when playback is stopped, useful for feeling the tempo before starting.
• Play — Plays only during playback.
• Both — Plays during playback and when stopped.

Type

Controls how the metronome provides feedback:

• Visual Only — Flashes the content area border (or the playbar if no content area is visible).
• Audio Only — Plays the selected click sound.
• Visual & Audio — Combines both flash and sound.

BPM

The tempo in beats per minute. Enter a value manually or use the tap button to tap in the tempo.

BPM is required when using the metronome, but you can also set it without enabling the metronome to display the tempo in song lists or send MIDI clock at this tempo (when enabled in MIDI Settings).

Tap the gray X to delete the tempo information, which also disables the metronome.

Transpose Chords

Transpose chords displayed in lyrics. This requires chord transposition to be enabled in Settings > General > Lyrics, Chords & PDF.

Only chords recognized by Stage Traxx can be transposed. See Chord Syntax for details on chord formatting.

Semitones

Transpose chords by up to ±11 semitones. This adjustment is applied in addition to any pitch changes if the next option is enabled.

Double-tap the slider to reset to 0.

Apply Pitch to Chords

When enabled, pitch changes applied to the song audio also transpose the displayed chords accordingly.

MIDI

MIDI File

Attach a MIDI file to play in sync with the audio tracks. MIDI commands from the file are sent to the port selected in MIDI Settings.

Tap the red minus button to remove and delete an attached MIDI file.

MIDI Trigger

Configure a MIDI command that loads this song into the player when received. Enter the command manually using the syntax described in the MIDI section, or use the Learn button to open a dialog that listens for incoming MIDI commands.

Timecode Offset

Sets a time offset for MIDI timecode (MTC) messages for this song. This is only relevant when sync mode is set to MTC in MIDI Settings.

Enter the offset in SMPTE timecode format: HH:MM:SS:FF (hours, minutes, seconds, frames). For example, 01:30:00:00 starts the song at the 1 hour 30 minute mark in the master timecode.

This is useful in theater productions or other scenarios where songs need to sync to a master timecode that doesn't start at zero.
