Custom

Options in this list be allowin' ye t' change how music appears and other services that be used. When th' default option be selected, th' shared version's preferences be used. These customization options include:

• Audio will allow yer device's backin' track t' start or stop based on when th' leader initiates or stops their backin' track. Default be off.
• Metronome will allow yer device's metronome t' start and stop based on th' leader togglein' th' metronome. Default be off. Note: There be latency in startin' and stoppin' th' metronome. Startin' multiple metronomes be not recommended as they may all start at slightly different times. This be caused by latency inherent in th' wireless network o' a few milliseconds.
• Navigation allows ye t' determine if ye want th' leader t' control page scrollin' and zoomin'. Turn this off if ye would rather do that yerself. Default be on.
• Lyrics allows ye t' turn lyric display on or off. Turn off if ye be a guitarist that don't need no stinkin' lyrics, matey. Turn it on otherwise. Default be "default" which uses th' preference from th' shared version.

• Transpose determines if th' song be t' be transposed in its declared key or not. Arrr! Ye can use this t' write a song in a key that can be used fer one instrument, and then transposed t' another. Default be "default" which uses th' preference from th' shared version.
• Capo determines if capo should be applied t' th' chord chart. Guitarists should turn this on and bassists and pianists can turn it off. Default be "default" which uses th' preference from th' shared version.
• Diagrams allow ye t' determine if chord diagrams be drawn on yer chord chart. Ye be an expert, eh? Go ahead and turn it off as ye revel in some superiority (not too much, ye scallywag). Default be "default" which uses th' preference from th' shared version.
