Doug,

I brought this up a few weeks back and John (Silvertones) has some good advice:

Quote:

What really helps a lot is to do this:
1. Listen to the midi file and decide which inst. is doing the most basic chording and remember it's MIDI channel
2. Determine what channel the bass is on
3. go to File/Import chords from midi file
4. Look at all the options & set appropriately especially the box for chords & bass.
5. click "interpret Chords"
You should see a better chord sheet. Play with it awhile and you'll get good results.




Some of the simplest, most basic songs yield the worst results, while some more complicated songs with very dense notation sometimes produce surprisingly good results.

Beats me. I usually end up looking at the lead sheet and manually input the chords. More work but a good learning experience.
