Transposing Key

[J.Edgar]

Hey you crazy kids,

I hope this topic is in the correct section. I couldn't figure out if should be classified under tuning or theory. Whatever.

Penguin Stalker posted a query asking about transposing songs to more managable keys.

I'd always sat down with a piece of paper and a pen and worked out each chord.... painfully.

Then I read Penguin Stalker's post, and this prompted me to do a bit of Googling. I found this site:

www.logue.net/xp/

You can cut 'n' paste your song (lyrics and all) into a window then select the key you want. It then opens up a new window with the new transposed song in it. Voila. No more pen and paper transposing.

I haven't had a chance to try out any songs yet, so I'd be keen to hear what the experience of others might be.

Give it a burl.

Ahhhhh. The holidays. You gotta love the holidays.

A week off work and camping down south... I hope I can fit the guitar in (hmmm ... may have to leave one of the children behind)

Go to this site and look under the tranposer page. It's a free program and it's a beaut. Have been using this for awhile.
