How can I get my scrolling to match the music of the song?
OnSong features two different method of autoscrolling for teleprompter-like functionality. The first and simplest approach is a linear autoscroll. In this scenario, OnSong scrolls from the top to the bottom of the song over the course of a specific duration. The second method is to use non-linear autoscroll. We call this feature "Timeline" which allows you to record, or manual create specific times that certain actions are performed.
You can learn more about Timeline in our video tutorial found here: http://onsongapp.com/videos/timeline
