Use a page-turn pedal or keyboard keys

For everyoneUpdated September 29, 2026

Turn pages hands-free with a Bluetooth pedal, and choose what each pedal does in Your settings.

Most Bluetooth page turners work like a keyboard, and stage view already listens for the keys they usually send. Connect your pedal, open stage view, and press it. If nothing happens, set up its keys in Your settings.

Keys that work right away

  • Next page: Right arrow, Down arrow, Page Down, or Space.
  • Previous page: Left arrow, Up arrow, or Page Up.

After a song's last page, the next page is the next song.

Set up your pedal

  1. Connect the pedal to your phone, tablet, or computer, the way its maker describes.
  2. Open Your settings and find Pedals.
  3. Tap the box that says Tap here, then press a pedal, then press a pedal. The box shows the key it sends and what it does on stage.
  4. To give a pedal a job, press Add a key beside Next page, Previous page, Next song, or Previous song. Then press the pedal. Escape cancels.
  5. To take a key off, press the small x beside it.

Use the standard keys puts everything back to the keys above. Your pedal setup is saved to your account and works on every device you sign in on.

A two-pedal turner is often set up as Next page and Previous page. With more pedals, Next song and Previous song jump a whole song.

On stage

  • Holding a pedal down turns one page, not many.
  • If a panel is open, a pedal press closes it and turns the page.
  • While you're typing a note, pedals leave the page alone.
  • On one song opened by itself, Next song and Previous song turn the page instead.
  • Guests on a guest link use the standard keys.
