The current control is Flow Mode. It shares a saved Flow Show’s live sequence across modules. It is separate from independent Sheets Setlist performance and from ECHOSystem networking.
Start and stop Flow Mode
- Select a saved Show in Flow → Shows and choose Sheets to Follow.
- Turn on Flow Mode in Flow’s toolbar, or hold the Flow icon for about 1.3 seconds.
- Sheets follows linked Main Charts; Pulse recalls the current Song’s settings. Ears remains personal monitor control and can show connection status.
There is one Flow Mode state, not separate switches in Sheets, Pulse and Ears. Turning it off dismisses Flow Mode Transport and returns to independent module use. The Pulse Metronome remains available. Switching Working Band to a different Band ends the old Flow Mode session; switching back does not restart it automatically.
Set Breaks are real stops
Between non-final Sets, the live sequence includes a zero-duration Set Break. After the final Song of a Set, Up Next shows Set Break. Advance once to make the break current, then again to select the next Set’s first Song.
An explicit Set Break added in Show Editor behaves the same way in performance. Neither kind has a Song, artist, BPM, key, Chart or duration, and a Set Break cannot play a click.
An automatic break is implied by the Set boundary and is not an extra saved editor/PDF row. An explicit break is saved and appears in the PDF.
Navigation and permissions
Sheets and the floating Flow Mode Transport follow the same sequence. Previous, Play/Stop and Next are available in that transport only while Flow Mode is active. If its widget is hidden, Sheets still provides Show navigation.
Flow Mode also works locally with Performance Role: None. In a connected ECHOSystem session, the Host owns the shared position. Followers need the specific permission for transport, Loop triggering or setlist edits; one permission does not grant the others.
Independent Sheets Setlists
Exit Flow Mode before choosing Sheets → Setlists → Perform. Starting Flow Mode ends an independent Sheets Setlist session. In Flow Mode the current Show/Song controls tempo; a Sheet’s saved Tempo can drive the independent Pulse Metronome when Flow Mode is off.
