How to share sheet music and chord charts across your band without cluttering chat logs

Short answer

Stop emailing PDFs. Sharing chord charts in chat logs leads to outdated arrangements, incorrect keys, and rehearsal delays. Instead, build a central repository organized by song name, where every band member can access the current master chart, reference recording, and tempo.

Repertoire organization checklist

• Central storage: a shared system where charts and demo recordings live side-by-side.
• Key & BPM tracking: listing tempo and vocal key next to the song title for easy setlist planning.
• Version control: clearly separating the 'album version' structure from the 'live arrangement' version.
