Hi, Mike.

Thanks for the heads up. Actually, the page I was trying to link to was http://www.notation.com .

Well, maybe you could have memorized it.

I need all the help I can get, and being able to create sheet music with just a few minutes' effort makes a big difference. It also helps me in sharing music with my wife and teaching it to my children.

Best wishes,

Just to confirm, I went to http://www.ask.com and found a midi for "Give Me Your Hand," which I want to learn. It did, indeed have four or five tracks, which would have filled the sheet music with unwanted staves, just as Steve said. Then, I went to the "Tracks" pulldown menu and...

Hi, Steve, Your software sounds very similar to MIDINotate. However, in the "Track" pulldown menu of MIDINotate, there's a "Delete Track" option. I haven't tried to use it, but that would obviously be the place to delete the tracks you don't want to see on the sheet music. Best w...

Another cool thing about the MIDINotate software is that you can set it to play the piece at any tempo you choose, so you can slow it way down while learning it.

Like I always say,

Hi, Dale. In the process of getting myself ready to play the whistle, I had to track down how to find tunes and print sheet music for them. I just posted a description of how that can be done, and I was thinking, why not put the information somewhere on the C&F site? That way newcomers won't hav...

Do you have MIDINotate software? It will automatically display the sheet music for any MIDI file. It will also play it for you and highlight the notes as they are playing, allow you to select which tracks to mute and which to play, transpose keys, edit the score, etc. You can download a free, 30-day...

Hi, Dale. Why not take some of the posts from the recent "Jigs, Reels, etc. ..." string, get permission from those who posted the messages you would like to reproduce somewhere else on C&F, and paste together a little compilation of introductory info. Then you can post that info perman...

Well yes, it is upstate. I didn't mention, the other thing we get around here besides snow is big fish. I'm not a fisherman myself, but you can't throw a stone around here without hitting an establishment with a sign that says something like, "salmon cleaning station." Favorite bumper stic...

Well, thanks.

I'm in a village of about 300 souls, not far from the east end of Lake Ontario. I'm about 40 miles north of Syracuse, about 65 miles south of Canada.

P.S. It snows here.

Hello, all. I've been lurking on this board for maybe ten days now, and I'm absolutely hooked. This all started as I watched my 10 year-old daughter making her first efforts to play the flute from school. I couldn't bear the thought of seeing her venture into the world of music without me, so I star...
