Voice Control

Voice control lets you use your voice and the microphone or audio input on the device to control OnSong. This screen lets you configure what you can do with voice control.

Toggle Voice Control

In the upper right corner is a microphone icon. You can tap on this to start listening for voice commands. When tapped, the microphone highlights to indicate it is enabled. Since it's a bit clunky to come in here to enable voice control, the user interface section gives you other ways to enable it.

User Interface

This section configures ways that you can enable voice control including:

Enable Live Bar Button

This switch can be turned on to enable the voice control live bar button. Using this button will replace the adhoc networking live bar button with the voice control button. You can use the Live Bar Settings to further customize what live bar buttons appear.

Trigger an Action

You can also assign a Voice action to a trigger such as a foot pedal or screen tap. If one is assigned, the triggers will appear on the right side.

Commands

This section allows you to configure Voice Control to listen for certain types of commands including:

Actions

OnSong will listen for you to name actions to perform. This can be nearly any action that can be assigned in the other tabs. For instance, you can say "Scroll Down" or "Next Section". The key is to combine the verb and noun that is present in every action.

Songs

You can use Voice Control to load songs in your library. This operates similar to quick pick by either loading the song present in a set, or by showing it from All Songs. To use, say the word "Go To" and then the name of the song. After a second, OnSong will search for the song name and switch to that song.

Sections

You can use Voice Control to become a music director and say the section where you are going. This uses the named section labels in text-based chord charts. For instance, you could say "Verse 1" or "Chorus" to go to those sections. OnSong selects the section and scrolls to it and in so doing, performs any actions or MIDI associated with the section and displays its lyrics if enabled.
