Subject: RE: Free program to add chords to tunes From: Sorcha Date: 18 Jun 01 - 06:43 PM Almost, Alex. The letter case refers to the octave, the number to time value of the note. |
Subject: RE: Free program to add chords to tunes From: mousethief Date: 18 Jun 01 - 06:41 PM Eric, the number refers, I believe, to the octave. Alex |
Subject: RE: Free program to add chords to tunes From: IvanB Date: 18 Jun 01 - 06:40 PM pavane, I tried downloading the file and got errors both when left clicking on the link or when right clicking and choosing 'Save Target As.' Are you sure the link is right? As I read it, it implies that the file is in the same directory as the Music page. But executables and zip files are usually stored in a subdirectory to which the link must point. Is anyone else having this problem? By the way, I tested the abc file you gave above and was pretty well impressed. |

Subject: RE: Free program to add chords to tunes From: pavane Date: 18 Jun 01 - 06:19 PM By the way, I do have work-arounds for a few known bugs - just ask me if you have problems. And DON'T use the Arpeggio chord options. They don't work well, even when working properly, which isn't often! Bass+chord works well for jigs & reels, block chords for many songs. |
Subject: Free program to add chords to tunes From: pavane Date: 18 Jun 01 - 04:42 PM I have been encouraged to share my software in the hope that you may find it useful. (It's FREE at present) My program HARMONY was originally developed to add chords to melodies, but has been expanded to display and print scores, read and write abc file read and write MIDI files transpose tunes create Melodeon and Concertina tablature. Create new, random tunes (jigs are the best) I know that there are still a few bugs lurking, but it is quite usable now. To find a copy to download , click here and go to the Music page. As an example, I downloaded the MIDI file of 'For Ireland', and used HARMONY to add chords automatically and produce the following abc file - (could be prettier, but it works)
