UDBapp Pro

The Ultimate Drill Book is an innovative mobile application designed for marching band students, directors, and staff. It offers a variety of features to enhance the learning and performance experience for both students and staff members. With its user-friendly interface and convenient tools, the Ultimate Drill Book is a must-have for any marching band program.

For students, the app offers the ability to watch drill animations while listening to music from any perspective, whether it be from the performer or director's point of view. They can also view their individual coordinate sheet for sets in a song or counts in a set, and follow their drill count by count with live updating coordinates. The UDB view provides curved and straight-line path information for previous and next sets, and student leadership can access everyone's drill information. Additionally, students can learn and clean drill in seconds after it's been exported from Pyware by the designer.

Directors and staff members also have access to a variety of useful features. They can tap on any performer to view coordinate and UDB view information, and easily change the field perspective between performer and director. The app also allows for easy management of drill files, with the ability to add, delete, and edit them directly from the app. Like students, directors and staff can also learn and clean drill in seconds after it's been exported from Pyware by the designer.

The Ultimate Drill Book also offers integration with sheet music, making it a valuable tool for music rehearsals. Users can access Beam with just one tap, import music and scores from cloud services like Dropbox and Google Drive, or even take a picture. The app also allows for syncing of drill and music with drill tabs, and users can annotate music with integrated icons and helpful tools.

One of the key differentiators of the Ultimate Drill Book is its phone layout, which is designed for one-handed use. This makes it easy for students and staff to access the app while on the go. The app also offers the ability to easily find midway points and yard line crossing counts, as well as switch between custom views.

The Tap ID feature allows directors to see the performer labels that students have selected. By tapping on a performer's dot, directors can see their name and photo, making it easy to manage alternates, shadows, and primary performers. The app also offers a calendar and attendance feature, allowing users to see their full rehearsal and performance schedule, check-in to events, and track attendance throughout the season. The Live Attendance feature provides a real-time view of who is at rehearsal and who is not.

Lastly, the Ultimate Drill Book offers an offline mode, which allows directors to restrict access to the app for selected users who are connected to the internet. This ensures that only authorized users have access to the app, even if they are connected to a WiFi or cellular connection.
