[NSP] Re: Transposing music

2009-07-31 Thread colin
Whichever way you do it, you are still going to have to write it down 
somewhere.
Many music programs allow you to enter in the notes, transpose and then 
print them out but it would be just as easy for you to type in the 
transposed version and print it.
As far as I know, there's nothing that scans sheet music and then presents 
it as an editable score.

What form is it in at present?
To transpose and print, you have to first find a way of entering it into a 
PC and playing the notes on a virtual piano etc can end up with a very odd 
score indeed. Music editors are very precise, musicians are not :)
Unless it's a concerto, hand copying is probably the best bet or ABC, 
convert to midi, transpose and print out.

Plenty of stuff out there to do that.

2009-07-31 Thread J M Dillon
Personally I think for the number of tunes you propose to convert (and 
I'm making assumptions here that the number are not all that great) it 
would be quicker to just transpose them by hand. Tedios I know but like 
everything else in life, practice often makes perfect and the speed of 
your endeavours will increase.
I've tried the easier options myself; or at least what I thought was the 
easy option and eventually came round full circle and did them (and 
still do them) in long hand.

Regards,
Michael

   Thank-you for the clarification fellows.

   I've been sending British-made instruments back to GB for years. I
   always write instrument manufactured in England returning to England
   on the customs form and have never had anyone have to pay duty.  I
   guess ignorance is bliss.

   Best that folks not assume they'll continue to be the beneficiaries of
   my dumb luck. :)

   I think it's cranky of the Britts to charge their own citizens customs
   on stuff made by their own citizens. You guys should throw some tea
   into a harbor. It worked wonders for us. ;0)

 I certainly think that's true- duty and also VAT.

I use Noteworthy. It is relatively simple to use and and I can now print in 
a tune quite quickly then transpose it to whatever I like.

Cheers
Helen
