Cadence Songbook — a songwriting app for singer-songwriters
Cadence Songbook is an easy songwriting app for singer-songwriters. You type your
lyrics line by line and the chords sit above the exact word where the change
happens — the way you would scribble them on paper, except this page plays, prints
and never gets lost. It is made for people who write songs on a guitar, a ukulele
or a piano and want a tidy sheet at the end of it.
What it does
- Lyrics with word-anchored chords, so a chord belongs to a word and stays there.
- A rhyme finder for line endings, and chord diagrams for any chord you type.
- Capo suggestions that turn hard chord shapes into easy ones.
- An in-depth mode: named song parts, strumming patterns, a melody stave with guitar TAB, and voice recording for ideas.
- Printable song sheets, multi-song gig booklets, and full songbooks with a cover, contents page and your own copyright line.
- Setlists for playing live, read-only share links for bandmates, and offline writing once loaded.
- Free to make an account and write songs. Installable on a phone.
What it is not
Cadence Songbook is an independent app for individual songwriters. It is not a
classroom or school instrumental-learning platform, and not a church worship
setlist or projection service. Other unrelated products use the word "Cadence";
this one is published only at cadencesongbook.com.
