General Discussion / Recommedation Requested
I am looking for a little guidance on this software.
I belong to a small church congregation where I generally choose the hymns we sing each meeting. We have a hymnal but all agree that there are many great hymns we would like to sing as well from old hymnals where the music is often not included. I don't mind singing known tunes from memory, but this can be a challenge to some if the tune is not familiar to them.
I am thinking about using a software such as this to import music files (from a place like Cyber Hymnal) or type the music from hymnals having the familiar music and then type in the words. These pages would be printed and added to a binder. This way we don't need 8+ different hymnals.
Would this be the right software to aid in this endeavor? How difficult is it to to work with the software in this way? I am not a music composer, but for the right melody I would be willing to type up a few existing tunes if I couldn't import them if neccessary, but I would be most encouraged if I could also enjoy the benefit of importing a whole lot more and just typing in the words. And I could change the key, is that right?
Your guidance would be very much appreciated!
