The five main advantages of the Firefly beyond the Butterfly are: (1) programmable mode buttons, (2) illuminated pedals, (3) wireless OR wired operation, (4) heft/ruggedness, and (5) auxiliary outlets for external pedals that can make Firefly a quad pedal.
The main advantages that the Dragonfly music page turner software has beyond the Firefly are: (1) integrated quad pedal system, (2) compact design that fits quad pedal into a dual pedal footprint, and (3) added heft/ruggedness. The benefit of a quad pedal is that it allows the user to trigger four app actions instead of two. For instance, two pedals can be configured to turn pages while the other two pedals can trigger the Links function in forscore to jump to a specified page to handle repeats (D.S., Coda), advance through a setlist, pop up a search box, launch a metronome, control audio playback and volume, and more. Depending on your needs, both can make great gifts for musicians of all types.
