Release notes

What's new in setshed.

setshed is built in the open with the bands testing it — most of what's below started as somebody saying “hey, this is weird.” Newest first.

Latest

Send one song to your B.Beat — live, no restart

  • Sync a single song. Right-click any song and push just that one to a connected B.Beat — stems, mix, video, lyrics and charts. If it's already there it updates in place; if it isn't, it's added live. No full library push, no reboot.
  • Pull a song back. Copy one song off the device into your cloud library, or remove a song from the device when you drop it from the set.
  • Download any song as a .export in the B.Beat's own format — a portable copy you can hand to a bandmate or load straight onto a device.
  • Teleprompter timing now matches the B.Beat exactly, with nudge and shift tools, multi-line selection and one-click revert for fine-tuning without re-syncing a song.
  • The beat grid now locks to your click track, so markers and loops land on the bar.

Big libraries got a lot faster

  • Saves only write what changed. Same result down to the byte — far less waiting when your library runs to hundreds of songs.
  • Imports you can resume. If a big batch fails part-way, re-select the whole lot — anything already uploaded is skipped instead of duplicated.
  • Uploads run in parallel with live progress and transfer speed.
  • A first-run tour that walks you through the desktop app, adding songs, and which formats work.
  • Rehearsal amp: the pop-out window fits the amp instead of the screen, and the backing track follows whichever song you're rehearsing.

The Shed, and imports that bring everything

  • The Shed — your band's idea space. Record a riff on the spot with a metronome and your live amp tone, watch the waveform as you play, keep the good takes and bin the rest. Turn any riff into a real song with a click track in one click.
  • Lyrics scratchpad the band shares — type in it, or import from text, PDF or Word.
  • Single-song import brings it all — stems, mix, lyrics, chords, PDF charts and their page-syncs, from one .export.
  • Add a song from loose stems or a .zip right in the browser.
  • Display names instead of email addresses, a unified member list with resend, and an email when a bandmate leaves a note.
  • View-only members get their own practice space rather than a read-only dead end.

setshed is in invite-only beta while we get it right with the bands testing it. Request an invite — or join the Discord to follow along.
