Broadcast MIDI Settings

Broadcast MIDI sends system exclusive messages to any connected MIDI device that contains information about the selected song as well as section changes. These settings allow you to determine if MIDI is broadcast using this mechanism, and if so, customize the type of information that is sent.

Enable Broadcast MIDI

This switch is turned off by default so that no system exclusive (SysEx) MIDI messages are sent. If this is enabled, then MIDI messages are sent and can be listened to by compatible products or software.

Default Tags

This section contains the tags or metadata of the song that is sent about the song. While these tags may be enabled, the information is only sent if it exists for the song. For instance, if no tempo for a song is set, then no tempo tag is broadcast for that song. The default set of tags are: Transposed Key, Original Key, Song Number, CCLI Song #, Duration, Tempo, Time Signature, Song Title, Section Number and Section Label.

Editing Tags

If broadcast MIDI is enabled (as shown) the list of tags can be edited. You can remove tags by tapping on the red minus button and confirming the deletion. In addition, you can change the order the tags are sent.

Adding Tags

You can also add additional tags by tapping on the + button in the lower right corner. The following tags can be added as well as any tags that are removed from the default list displayed above. Other tags include: Artist, Song Identifier, Books, Copyright, Keywords, Lyrics, Flow, Content, and Capo.
