General Discussion / Question about the organization of my song
This is the same song I was getting the weird flats in the other day.

I am attaching a link to the 3 verses that are listed together in the song. I am having problems with the way I have it implemented, because the middle verese has 3 more syllables than the other verses. They are are are sung with eighths when the other verses have quarter notes. As it is
those extra 3 words bump the first refrain so the words in the first special ending are all messed up. The notes fit perfectly.

It would be nice if someone has a simple suggestion I'm not aware of.

Thank you in advance.

General Discussion / A question about a note.
I have a note that occurs a number of time in the song I've been working on. I know what the 8va is and have read the info on it. I have one question regarding it. On the line where you show the 8va, does it just go on as text?

I understand the top part of that note means you play that cord in rolling manner (A pianist friend of mine says "like thunder rolling".) Is there a way of doing this with NWC?

Thank you in advance.

General Discussion / An issue with accidentals
I have a song I just put in that was orriginally 4 pages. the 1st page is in Bflat major, the second is Bm, the rest of the song is in C. In the whole song there weren't more than half a dozen accidentals.

I transposed down 2, and got mixed results. The verses half the song all came out fine.

The chorus cameout showing flat flat note everywhere. Can someone help to point me figure out what I messed up.

Thank you in advance

General Discussion / A question about lyric spacing.
Hi I have a song I am trying to enter that has The words sweet, the or then under two notes,

!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.0,Single)
|Chord|Dur:8th,Dotted|Pos:-3,-1|Opts:Stem=Up,Beam=First
|Chord|Dur:16th|Pos:-4,-2|Opts:Stem=Up,Beam=End
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End

At the beginning of the song, I played a little with extra _. In the middle of the 1st
line is similar notes to use with Go, With The and In. The thing I've been trying with
extra underscores, don't seem to have any effect other than to widen the space the
two notes are spread over.

I assume there may already be a link out there to deal with this. If so
I would love a pointer. .

I have one other issue. I have the following in another song

!|Chord|Dur:8th|Pos:-1o|Opts:Stem=Up|Dur2:8th|Pos2:n-2o|Color:0|Visibility:Default

When it prints, I get double notes on the A. Is  this the kind of thing need text spacing for
and how should it work?


Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

General Discussion / Trouble entering a couple chords or note combination.
I have a song I entered in the int NWC2 and it plays nicely, but
in order to get the notes timed right I had to use 2 sets of treble lines
and two bass lines. When I combined them into one, it came out with
all kinds of wierd characters from the rests on the overlayed line.

I have a measure of it at   http://www.therpgpro.com/photo/Music%20Notes.jpg

The first notes on the bass line aren't allowed as a chord. I can't enter a rest as a note in a chord.

In the treble line the last chord isn't allowed. If the I enter the chord part for the top, then try the stem for the other notes in the chord going down and the note is between the notes already in the chord it is not allowed. I get the same sound as when I try making a chord with a rest in it.

Am I doing it wrong, or is it something to be considered for a fix?

Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

This is an awesome product and I'm amazed I got all the notes to sound at the correct time. It would be even better if I can enter these combination.

General Discussion / Question about getting to song's temp
I unserstand how to insert a tempo setting, I am having problems getting to the
Tempo of the song I am working on. It is a Vocal style piece, with the tempo right
newr the begining of the the song.

I am only finding settings for adding new tempo setting. The new setting is not replacing
what was there. when looking at the song it says  quarternnote = 90 quarternote = 70
quarternote = 50. I know the last one applies, and it plays OK, but it looks cluttered.
especially when printed. Is there any way to get to the original one and change it?

Thanks in advance for any help you can ofer

General Discussion / Question about using NWC with files other than GM
I found a link to a site callled NoteWorth Composer Scriptorium. with an asortment of
very useful items.

Several items I found Xg-full.nwc and xg-cond.nwc in particula look like they will allow me to use Yamaha Midi XG sounds. I may be missing something, but I don't find a way to tell
NWC2 how to use these. I am new at using the product.

Can anyone suggest how to set it up.

So far the help I have found has been very good, but sometimes I am not familiar with
the terminology in order to find the documetation.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction, even if it is links to answers for
others. It is terrific you have these resources available.

Thank you again, in advance for any help you can offer

General Discussion / Guitar Chords
Is there some way we can have the program put guitar Chords over the melody line?

I can see this as either an option we say yes or no to, and have it figure out what chords are represented by the chords in the piece.

Another option could/should be if we want to put chords We want on the page, having some way to print it.

Thank you in advance

General Discussion / Question about how to put notes on one line instead of 2
I have a song that has Soprano/Alto/Tenor/and Bass on separate lines.

I would like to copy them, or change a setting so  so the Alto overlays the soprano and the bass overlays the tenor so I end up with just soprano/alto and tenor/bass in two lines.

Is this possible without rekeying my whole song?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer

General Discussion / Hassles with song playing extra notes.
I have a number of songs the measure taking up a the whole time for that measure, in this case a B flat on the treble clef.
I currently get 2 notes of half the time I need. The song I am working on is 6/8 time, and at the ends of some lines the
1 note carries the whole 6 beats. The notes are shown as 2 dotted quarters with the slur between them. There is nothing to
slur because they don't change. What does it take to get these to sound as 1 note for 6 beats? Am I doing something wrong
or is there a bug in the program?

Thank you for any help you can offer. I copied the notes on the measure and pasted the image here, if it is of any value.
