keeping track of many songs
#2
I have over 8 shelf-feet of piano music and songbooks. I cannot afford the time to scan it all, but I have found much of the classical music on the internet, and have scanned >700 songs.

I use three genres to organize the music:
   classical: solo piano music
   instrumental: piano music for groups (chorus, singers, orchestra, etc.)
   showtunes&pop: songs, either original (vocal+piano) or arranged for piano solo

For showtunes&pop I just use the song title. For classical I prepend the composer's last name to the title. For instrumental I prepend the group name to the title. So I can tell the genre from the title alone.

I do not use MIDI or any electronic accompaniment. But I conjecture it might be easier to select songs on the tablet and have it issue the MIDI command to select the song on the synth. I suspect the new version of MobileSheets will support this (if you have a MIDI interface for your tablet).
