My wife is complaining that we have music all over the living room all the time. With a couple kids in music lessons, school bands (regular, jazz), orchestra, and such a practice session often needs 6 books and 5 loose pages of music so I can't blame her for being frustrated. There is no easy way to store all that and find what you need for the current daily practice sessions.

Putting a tablet (suggestions? schools gives the kids an iPad, and I'm looking at pinetab2, or boox for me) on a stand seems easy enough, but then what?

Mobile sheets seems to be what others around me use, so probably what I'd end up doing too, though I'm not locked to anything. Any other software that I should be looking at? I do like the idea that we can synchronize page turning.

The hard part is getting all my music onto my NAS. Do I just scan all my books? Buy again as PDF (only rarely an option). Entry the music into some other program? I have some sheet music I want to put into lilypond - is there anything that would sync my tablets to a rendered version of this.

I already have Jellyfin and I see book options (but have not used it yet). Calibri-web also comes up often for books. Both seem book reading focused and music flows / organization is different. Anything else I might want to put on my servers that might be better?

Any other thoughts? What have others done that works?

My wife is a pianist. She bought an iPad and we paid for Forscore. So far, worth every cent. Yeah yeah I know, communism and Apple bad, opensource good and all that. But bloody hell, with Forscore the money was worth it. Being able to use facial gestures to turn pages, link up multiple sources for sheet music and a helluva lot more, I would recommend it to anyone serious about music, any day.

I have some guilty pleasure apps that I refuse to get rid of because they’re just so dang good. Many of them are on Apple devices… forScore is one of those apps
