Question Have anyone tried to read musics from the DR?

Hi,

I wonder have any musicians here used the DR to upload the musics sheet as they are playing the instruments?

I think it is a cool idea to try it out.

Size-wise it should work fine. I'm not sure about the practicality of it. Musicians generally play in rather dimly-lit environments, and I don't think the screen would be very readable in such lighting.

Yeah . I load some guitar tabs pdf books . And since as I can not play as fast as I can read then it works for me . I read then just to learn the songs .
I play in a band and I dont need to read at reharsals , just to lear the songs .

It works very well. Of course, a footswitch would have been nice, since you have to turn pages twice as often.

Caveat: the speed of page turning can be a problem, if you use poorly scanned sheet music. But it's more than adequate if you have sheets that were produced as pdf files.
