About Chart-O-Tron
Chart-O-Tron has several purposes:
- To be a band's library for sheet music (PDFs, sample mp3s or MIDI, source files) along with helpful metadata, in a shared way that is more purpose-built then shared Google Folders or Dropbox.
- To allow access to that music in a hurry and also in a phone- or tablet- friendly way
- To conduct "setlist surveys" so bands can vote on what they want to practice or play.
- To edit and store setlists with useful annotations as cheatsheets for performances
Band info is protected via a shared password for the band.
Here is a Youtube Video about using Chart-O-Tron.
Contact kirkjerk at gmail dot com if you have any questions or would like your band to use this site for your band - or if you know of a streetband offering sheet music collections we should link to.
