Setlists in Roadcase let you plan what you play at every show. Build setlists from your song library, save templates for reuse, and assign specific setlists to individual shows.

​
Building a setlist

To create a setlist:
  1. Navigate to Setlists in the sidebar
  2. Click New setlist
  3. Give it a name (e.g., “Spring Tour Set” or “Festival 45-min set”)
  4. Add songs from your library

​
Adding songs

Search your song library and add songs to the setlist. Each song entry includes:
FieldDescription
SongThe song from your library
OrderPosition in the setlist (drag to reorder)
KeyDefaults to the song’s library key — override for this setlist if needed
TempoDefaults to the song’s library BPM — override if needed
DurationDefaults to the song’s library duration — override if needed

​
Per-setlist overrides

You can override the key, tempo, and duration for any song on a specific setlist without changing the values in the song library. This is useful when:
  • You play a song in a different key for a particular tour
  • The tempo changes for a specific arrangement
  • You play an extended version at certain shows

​
Reordering songs

Drag and drop songs to change the setlist order. Think about flow — energy levels, key changes, and crowd engagement — when arranging your set.

​
Setlist templates

Templates are setlists that are not tied to a specific show. They serve as reusable starting points.

​
Creating a template

Any setlist that is not assigned to a show acts as a template. Create it from the setlists page as usual.

​
Applying a template to a show

To use a template:
  1. Open a show from the calendar
  2. Navigate to the setlist section
  3. Click Apply template
  4. Select the template
The template’s songs are copied to the show’s setlist. You can then customize the show-specific setlist without affecting the template.

​
Assigning setlists to shows

Each show can have its own setlist. Assign one from the show detail page. This creates a record of exactly what was played (or planned to be played) at each show.

​
Exporting setlists

Click Export PDF to generate a printable setlist. The PDF includes:
  • Setlist name
  • Song list with order numbers
  • Key and tempo for each song
  • Duration for each song
  • Total estimated set length
The PDF is designed for on-stage reference or sharing with the band.

​
Who can manage setlists

Both administrators and members can create, edit, and delete setlists. Crew members can view setlists but cannot modify them. See Roles & permissions for details.
