How Musicians are Transforming Performances with Flic
Every day, musicians find creative ways to incorporate Flic buttons into their performances, adding a new level of freedom and flow to their setups. One such musician, a music teacher based in Qatar, shared how Flic has become a game-changer in his teaching sessions and live performances:
“O…….M………G

Flic: A Quality-of-Life Upgrade for Musicians
Jim discovered he could use Flic to turn digital pages on his iPad sheet music app, forScore. Now, instead of interrupting his flow to reach for his mounted iPad, he simply presses a discreet Flic button he holds along with his conductor’s baton. This small adjustment has made his performances and teaching sessions smoother and more engaging.
Collaborative Sheet Music Made Simple with Newzik
The Newzik app, designed for collaborative sheet music, also works seamlessly with Flic. As Aurélia Azoulay, Head of Business Development at Newzik, explains:
“Using Flic to turn pages is with Newzik is a great idea. Our partner orchestras and teaching classes often raise the fact that they have to look at their feet to use pedals. With Newzik’s cloud-based platform, a conductor or a teacher could even use one Flic to turn the pages of all the musicians’ iPads synchronized.”
Streamlining Setlists for Performers
It’s not only classical musicians who benefit from Flic. Guitarist and singer David Hellgren uses it with the Setlists app on his iPad:
“I’ve got Flic mounted on my guitar band, and press it to scroll the Setlist App when I sing. It just looks awkward if I would reach for the iPad when I perform.”

Flic offers built-in support for popular music apps like forScore, Newzik, and Setlists, making it easy to streamline your setup in a classroom, on stage, or during practice sessions. Flic buttons are versatile and can be mounted on instruments or stands, making them a discreet but powerful addition to any musician’s toolkit.
