The stage app for live bands
Call the song.
The whole band is already there.
Tap a song and it opens on every musician’s screen at once — chords, lyrics, key and cues. Online for rehearsal, on the mixer’s Wi‑Fi for the gig.

One tap, every screen
The song changes.
Everyone’s already there.
The maestro double‑taps the next song. It opens on every musician’s screen at the same moment — in their own view, in the band’s key.

How it works
From setlist to stage in four steps
Set it up once before the gig. On stage, all you do is pick the song.
-
Build your setlist
Add or import your songs, then set the order, key and tempo for the night.
-
Start the stage
Choose online or Wi‑Fi. Maestrom creates a six‑character join code.
-
Your band joins
Musicians enter the code and pick their instrument. Latecomers can join anytime.
-
Go live
Double‑tap a song and it opens on every screen at once. Cues and key changes follow.
Two ways to connect
Rehearse online.
Play on the mixer’s Wi‑Fi.
Pick how the stage connects when you start it. Your band joins the same way either way.
Wi‑Fi
Everyone on the same Wi‑Fi, like the router on the mixing desk. No internet needed, and the delay stays tiny.
On stage
Lead the show
without shouting over it
Every call you used to make with your voice now takes a single tap.
Live cues
Seven cue buttons under your fingers. One tap and the cue flashes on every musician’s screen.
One key for the band New
Change the key or tempo once and every screen follows. Personal key turns only your own screen.
Preview, then go live
A single tap previews. A double tap goes live. No accidental song changes mid‑show.
Add songs on stage New
Got a request? Add it from your library and it reaches the band instantly.
If a connection drops
Maestrom tries to reconnect on its own. Once it’s back, the musician returns to the song that’s live.
For every musician
Everyone reads the song their way
Same song, same key, same moment — but each musician picks the view that fits their instrument.
Lyrics + Chords
Chords sit above the lyrics, for those who sing and play.
Chords Only
A clean bar‑by‑bar chart with sections and repeats.
Lyrics Only
Big, bold lyrics a vocalist can read from a step back.
Drums New
Drummers write their own grooves and read them on stage.
Letters, Nashville numbers or Roman numerals · Guitar and piano chord diagrams
Writing songs
Every view has its own editor
Write lyrics and chords line by line, the chart bar by bar, the groove step by step. One song, ready in all four views.
Lyrics and chords, line by line
- Tap a line, put the cursor on the syllable and pick the chord from the palette below.
- Stage tools add a cue, repeat, chorus, solo or final mark under the line.
- Keep separate notes for guitar, vocals, bass, drums and keys.
The chart, bar by bar
- Tap a beat, choose the root and the type: m, 7, maj7, m7b5, sus4, slash bass.
- Repeat signs, simile %, D.S. al Coda and time signatures from 2/4 to 12/8.
- Add, duplicate and reorder sections; undo and redo every step.
Lyrics as plain text
- Edit the lyrics like any text: type, split and join lines.
- Chords stay on their syllables when lines move.
- On stage the vocalist gets big, readable lyrics.
The groove, step by step New
- Tap steps on hi-hat, snare, kick, crash, ride and tom rows.
- Accents, ghost notes, flams, open hi-hat and fills on the same grid.
- Pick the resolution and the time signature; flip between grid and notation.
No need to start from scratch
Paste a chord chart
Paste text from anywhere; chords, bars and repeats are picked up and the lyrics are dropped.
Chart from lyrics
Build the bar chart from the chords already in your lyrics.
Transpose
Move the whole song to a new key; chords are spelled right for that key.
Import
iReal Pro, MusicXML and Maestrom files. See every import option

FAQ
Questions, answered
Do my musicians need to pay?
No. Musicians join free with a Maestrom account. Only the person who leads the stage may need Pro, and only once they outgrow the free limits.
Does it work without internet?
Yes. Choose Wi‑Fi when you start the stage and everyone connects over the same local network — the router on the mixing desk is enough. Your songs and setlists are stored on your device.
Which devices does it run on?
iPhone, iPad, Android phones and Android tablets. One stage can mix all of them.
How do I get my songs in?
Type them in the editor, paste a chord chart, or import from iReal Pro (playlists can become setlists), MusicXML or a Maestrom file someone shared with you. You can also download song packs from Explore.
Can each musician see the song differently?
Yes. Everyone picks their own view — Lyrics + Chords, Chords Only, Lyrics Only or Drums — and can use a personal key without changing the band’s key.
What if a connection drops mid‑song?
Maestrom tries to reconnect on its own; once the connection is back, the musician returns to the song that’s live. Musicians who arrive late can join at any time.
Where is my data stored?
Your songs and setlists live on your device. During a stage they’re shared with the musicians who joined — over the local Wi‑Fi, or through our servers when you play online. See the Privacy Policy for details.
Your next gig,
on the same page.
