Showing Chords for melody 2010-12-12 02:27 pm Hi,I have just started using Noteworthy Composer and I have version 2.1I am opening .midi files in the application and then I am filtering out the melody/piano part wherever possibleWhat I'm after now is that somehow I also get Noteworthy to show the relative chords of the melody on top of the lines I want this to be automatic (i.e not do them myself)If there is someone who can guide me as to how to do this I would really appreciateThank you in advance and I really hope someone has an asnwer for meRegardsPaul Quote Selected

Re: Showing Chords for melody Reply #3 – 2010-12-13 04:57 pm Automatic chord display is one of the many things that LilyPond does "out of the box", although it only recognises non-inverted chords. Together with my program that converts NWC to Lily, it should be quite simple to get this working, providing the layout of the score is not too complex.www*philholmes*net/software/ has a link to my converter (change * to .). Google LilyPond for a view of what that free, open-source program can do. Quote Selected
