Terri; What do you think about my idea about using the bn for guitar chords? Ex. G Am G C G
Usually if you have a good ear for music, you can tell when to change. I just have the different chords, not how long to play each chord.

No software will do this. Dancing Dots can translate print music into braille, but the manufacturers admit the transcription isn't 100% correct. Braille music is a complex code and there is more to it than just single letters and numbers. Some signs have two cells in them and keyboard music is the most difficult to read and write. There are very few braille music transcribers. I had a music theory book which was transcribed completely wrong and it drove me nuts. There are some music scores in Web Braille and you can read them with the BN. Terri Amateur Radio call sign KF6CA.
