Am Bm C D Am Bm Am Bm When I get to the second Am Bm etc., is it possible to get a higher up the neck chord or different voicing? For instance the 1st Am is at the 5th fret. The 1st Bm is at the 7th fret. I would like to have the 2nd Am be on the 12th fret with E note as the top note of the Am chord and so on down the neck for the other Bm Am Bm. Hope I have explained this clearly. Thanks. "The desire for fame is the last infirmity cast off even by the wise." Cornelius Tacitus

But be forewarned it is an expensive piece of software and if you go too far from the original note you may get artifacts.

But that’s pretty painstaking work. BIAB 2024 Win Audiophile. Software: Studio One 6.5 Pro, Swam horns, Acoustica-7, Notion 6; Win 11 Home.
