Hi gang,
Anyone know of a music software that allows you to show Intervals in lieu of the standard Fret locations.
Example: Major scale. I want the sheet to show intervals, instead of notes names, fret locations.
Much appreciated.

When I teach guitar one of the books that I use is the Incredible Scale Finder: https://www.amazon.com/Incredible-Scale-Finder-Leonard-Supplement/dp/0634014900/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1480954314&sr=1-1&keywords=incredible+scale+finderThis book shows over 1300 scales as they are played on the fret board, i.e. no note notation. Each scale is shown in 7 different patterns. Although not software I think this inexpensive book, $6.99 USD, is exactly what you are looking for. I hope this helps and good luck. Ps - click on look inside then first pages to see exactly what I am talking about.

MarioD: thanks for the link. Bought it (Kindle version), along with the Chords book by the same publisher.
BTW: Kindle is avail on PC computers (free), and much cheaper than books.

I think that you will like both books.
Personally I would much prefer books over computer eBooks. I have a hard time reading on the computer. I'll have to see if my Nook can handle Kindle books. I have all of my PDF doc on the Nook.

I have 26 Kindle eBooks on my computer. The font size is adjustable however the charts are terrible to read. Kindle needs a Mag glass to use over such charts, I'll have to do a 2nd request. (a) I cannot afford the price of books, (b) I really do not have the space for all of them (books).
Check out Amazon re: Kindle, you should find the info for your Nook.
Have a good day.

But do those books have "the little dots"??? The Little Dots This is one of the funniest things ever and it has likely made the rounds here already, but it fits the thread!

To me the main selling point of a physical Kindle is the screen. A few years ago on vacation I walked by someone reading one by the pool in bright sunlight. I talked to her about it and she showed me how it worked. I don't know the tech in it but no glare and the text was very clear in direct sunlight. Laptop screens definitely do not work like that.

I'd never take my laptop out, too many wires attached. But you're right about the screen glare.

Yep, the book has gotta have the dots to read guitar music.
Great share Eddie. Thanks!
