I've just discovered this software. I realise it's still a work in progress, but it's still streets ahead of anything else I've tried (and could afford!).
Unless I've missed it, I see no way of editing within the application? For example:
I play with a lot of different singers and have the same music in different keys (my sight transposing skills are not great). Before moving to MS, I kept different pads for each singer. These I have now loaded into MS, but I didn't make any reference to the key of each piece when doing so. Consequently, I have three, four, sometimes more, of the same title, with no way of telling which is which. It would be great if I could open a page, check the key and then add it within the app. That would make the creation of collections much easier for me. Otherwise, I fear I will have to delete the lot and start over .
Also, as I'm writing, I'd like to ask a technical question. I don't seem to be able to point the MS storage to an external SD card. Spotify seems to have no trouble using the external card, so I was wondering where I am going wrong.
This is using a Phoenix Technologies Casiatab9d, running Android 4.1.1

I am hesitant to offer any advice because I am just starting. So take what I say with a grain of salt.
First, I would print out the pdf manual. It is somewhat outdated (it has not kept pace with changes to the software), but still invaluable.
You can edit the song information. I think if you change the name of the songs to include the key (Lady Is A Tramp in Ab), it will show in the songs list.
I have done similar things when I added better versions of songs charts: "Lady Is A Tramp.07.19.13" or Lady Is A Tramp Best Version.
I have not been able to get MS to recognize the external SD card, but I believe there is an option in utilities that you have to check off that you want backups on an extrenal SD drive, so that mightbe a problem (I already started backing up on internal card, so I decided not to mess with it for now).
Disclaimer: I could be totally wrong as I am pretty new with this!
