Choose Existing Song Or Score

"I used this song in a previous setlist" or "I only need to replace this score." Use this sheet to find songs or scores that are already in PagePilot Viewer.

What you choose depends on where you opened the sheet. When adding an existing song to a setlist, you choose a song. When replacing or selecting a score in song settings, you choose a score from the library.

Choosing An Existing Song

In Choose Where to Add From, choose From Library, then Song, to open the song picker. You can search by song title, source score name, or audio file name.

Choosing an existing song brings more than the score into the setlist item. It can carry the page range, audio, timeline duration, audio start time, bar-number correction, and other settings prepared for the song. Use it when you want to reuse preparation from a previous show.

If the same song is used in multiple setlists, editing the shared song later can affect other items that reference it. When you need a separate version, open Item Settings and duplicate before editing when appropriate.

Choosing Only A Score

When you replace a score from song settings, the library score picker opens. In that case, you are choosing a score file, not a full song.

The score picker lets you search by score name and filter by tags. Use the page count and tags to find the PDF, image, or text page you need.

If you want to reuse audio or timeline preparation too, adding an existing song is usually the better path.

Which One Should I Use?

• Reuse preparation from a previous show: add an existing song.
• Use the same PDF for a different song: choose only the score.
• Keep audio and timeline separate: choose only the score, then adjust audio and timeline in Item Settings.
• Import a PDF or image that is not in the app yet: go back to Choose Where to Add From, then choose From Files or Photos.

If You Get Stuck

• If the song is missing, it may not exist as a song yet. Add the score to a setlist first, or check the Songs tab in Scores & Audio Library.
• If the score is missing, it may not have been imported yet. Add it from File or Photo first.
• If search is too narrow, try a shorter search term or clear tag filters.
• If several songs use the same score, compare the song title, score name, audio name, and timeline length.
