Thanks for info and quick reply! These are custom arrangements of popular contemporary Christian music. Sometimes a phrase is left out, the key is changed, or an intro or ending is modified. I've been trying to get the MIDI's from the composer, but no luck yet. He doesn't mind giving them to me, but he's so busy he never gets around to packing up the MIDI's and emailing them to me. What's ACW - something chord wizard? Is that in BIAB or RB? Are you talking about importing an MP3 here?
The composer uses Finale and he's given me a couple of those files to work with, but his version is 2008 or later. I bought Songwriter just to work with his Finale files in mid 2009, so that was shipped as the 2007 version - which won't open/read later versions. Now they've released Songwriter 2010 but they don't have an upgrade path from 2007 (even though there's one for Notepad) - you just have to buy it full price. By the time I do that, I could have just bought PrintMusic for the same money. However, these products don't seem to do a very good job of capturing and notating MIDI - at least not from my wind controller. BIAB is much better at this task. Not to mention, by the time the Songwriter 2010 version was released I'd already bought BIAB thinking it could do the job.
It just seems that if you had a quick method of doing this using an MP3 that it would be the most portable solution and would apply to anything you'd want to work with.
