Title: I want to key in the old song with long tie
Post by: FrankSit on 2023-09-17 12:30 am
Hello, Is it possible to key in the attached old song, but I like it, Can we tie so long?

Thank you,

Frank

Hi Frank,
those long ones aren't ties, they're slurs, and yes you can make them that long,  Simply apply a slur property to each intervening note.  You can even select all but the last one at once and press <;> to do it.

This site has thousands of hymns and all of them have nwc format. This is a link to your example: Cyber Hymnal (http://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/a/h/a/p/ahapower.htm)

Hi  Warren, having looked at the link, I found the song but there is no long slur like the one I attached. Is  the result of sound the same?.

Sometimes it's easier to personalize a song that's already been transcribed rather than start from scratch. Even if the tune is different, you might not have to do much to the lyrics.
