I've got a guitar pattern that I want my students to play along with, transposed to all keys. However, as it gets to F#, B, E, etc., the notes are off the charts for the guitar. Is there any way to select the measures that I want and have them transpose the melody for these measure down an octave?

Melody menu, Edit Melody Track, Transpose, Transpose Melody Only, then type -12 in the Transpose Melody Semitones. Then click the Range radio button for Part of Song, and complete the measures and chorus information. Click OK.

I'm sure you know, but for anyone else reading, the guitar sounds one octave below the written notation.

Perfect. Thanks.
