Hello to everyone!
But first of all a Merry Christmas to you. I hope you enjoy the spirit of Christmas!
I bought the program not too long ago.
However I spent time, first, at training on notes recognition and reading. I was really bad with that. It is much better now, thanks to a few free programs I found on the net.
So now I will go full blast into my Songtrix Gold (for the little difference in price I thought it was worth buying the best version)
I have been practicing with the piano Suzuki method till book 5. I want to start all over again.
Best regards.
Michou

Hi Michou,
And Merry Christmas to you!
I've been using Songtrix for some time now, and I find it really helpful for getting my ideas worked out so they sound like I want.
Maybe I can help if you get stuck on anything with Songtrix. How do want to use it? Do you write songs?

Hi Mike !
Wow, Great ! Yes I'll let you know if I have any question.
I am still to thoroughly explore Songtrix.
I have no intention to compose so far, one thing at a time.
Lately I have been concentrating on notes recognition, with the help of a few free programs. I had to solve this problem before going any further.
From what I have seen, Songtrix can also greatly help me with notes and chords recognition, and for finding the proper chord to apply to a melody.
I will be some time before I master the program correctly.
Thank you Mike, in the meantime, for your kind offer!

Hi Sunfly !
Hi Michou i have been using a great note recognition teaching freeware program that has really proved helpful if only used for a few minutes everyday on a very regular basis.
> I have done lots of research but funnily enough I have missed out on that one ! So many thanks ! Do you people on that thread want me to tell you about the other programs I have discovered ? If so let me know.
However, Sunfly gave a link to a very good program. Thank you Sunfly !

> Great, because, for me it was a MEGA block. MEGA ! The only way I knew of was a music book and reading and reading... This is boring and not productive at all, and an absolutely obsolete method, nowadays ! When I started the piano, the teachers were not familiar with the internet, and never made me benefit from the wonders of such programs. Too bad because I feel I could have made so much progress with that tool, and I reproach nothing to my teachers, who were very devoted.

> Yes, I'll try that also.
> Right now, I am treading into the Songtrix Gold and I am afraid that if I go into a ready made song and alter it (jitters!), it will forever be corrupted in my songtrix program (unless I do a re-download-). I'll sort it out. In any case, it is all very exciting venture. I love it.
Happy New Year to you all, and my best wishes for a wonderful musical year !
God bless you all !

Just joined the network but have been familiarizing myself with how music is made by reading among others, this great resource by Chordwizad "How music works" - great staff. I have a number of compositions that I intend to publish using songtrix gold, hopefuly with the online collaboration by some of you that may be interested.
Happy new year to you all
