This is what I’m talking about!

Planning Center has announced that they’ve released both an online version and an iPad standalone version of their product so that you can easily create a “digital music stand” with your PDFs.

Check out these two videos after the jump:

Online Music Stand

From their mouths:

Using any Mac, Windows or Linux computer you can just go to your plan in your browser, hover over rehearse and then click “Music Stand”. All the song PDFs are loaded in order and are shown either one or two pages at a time, depending on the size of your browser window.

Click on the left or right sides to go to the previous or next pages, or use keyboard shortcuts or a usb footpedal. Adjust the page sequence to follow any repeats or skips in your music, and when available, choose which PDF to see for each file.

Plus, if you are using attachment types to assign different files for different positions, Planning Center will load the correct files for each user by default.

Sweet!

iPad Music Stand

What they have to say about it:

Even before the iPad was announced, we already had our gears going, but when we finally saw it we were so excited that it would be perfect for our Music Stand!

So we went to work on a fully native iPad App, and I am glad to tell you it is available in the store right now!! It has all the features of the Web App, but with a touch interface made specifically for the iPad.

I think this is going to get some serious use.
