Page turner for organ
#8
I'm an organist as well.  I haven't had MobileSheets long enough to really try it out on the organ, while I've used a 2-pedal unit or manual tapping while playing piano (and an upcoming handbell gig).  Using Forescore & an iPad, organist Dan Miller has taped a single-pedal unit to the organ's crescendo pedal and used that for turning pages, before Forescore had the facial recognition feature, which is what he uses now.

AirTurn makes a bite switch that you literally bite on to advance pages, but it's kind of weird.  It's also not cheap at $60 a pop.  Info here: https://www.airturn.com/products/airturn-bite-switch

I'm intrigued with the ring controllers, but I don't know if it will actually be practical for us.

I'm using a HP laptop/tablet hybrid, and the screen is wide enough that I can view side-by-side or single-page-portrait depending on how it's on the rack.  The only problem I've really had has been once I turn it off or put it into sleep mode, I have to convert the machine back to a laptop to turn it back on and log in.  One nice thing about this machine with MobileSheets is that I can do annotations in either laptop or tablet mode.
