Simplify Your Worship Set Planning with NNS Charts

As a worship leader, you juggle sermon prep, team scheduling, and the constant need for clear, accurate chord charts. You need a tool that’s fast, flexible, and helps your volunteer musicians feel confident. Stop wasting time formatting documents and fighting with last-minute key changes. JotChord is the Nashville Number System (NNS) app built to streamline your Sunday morning preparation.

Master Last-Minute Key Changes in Seconds

The vocalist needs a different key. The acoustic set needs a capo version. Sound familiar? With NNS, transposing a song doesn't require any changes to the chart. No more manually rewriting every chord.

If you have members of your worship team that aren't comfortable reading numbers yet, you can export versions of the PDF with letters instead of numbers:

• Instantly Transpose: Change the key for the whole chart in one click.
• Capo Charts: Generate capo-specific number charts effortlessly.
• Save Time: Go from request to a printed, professional PDF for your band in under a minute.

Equip Your Volunteer Musicians to Succeed
