Hi, all. I have searched the forum for this topic and found a few possible helpful hints, but many of them are several years old, so I thought with the updates there might be some news.
I just transcribed a song for someone. The song is in swing rhythm, and I notated it by making all the eighth notes ("quavers") in standard style, noting "Swing" as a tempo directive.
Now the person has asked for a performance of this chart. Because it's a very complex song, I would like to simply use the chart I made, convert it to MIDI, and use some software I have to convert the MIDI directly in to a performance that I can record and send her. So here is my question: Is there a way to convert a chart so that the eighth notes are played in swing rhythm, without having to re-chart it as triplets with the middle note missing? In other words, is there a shortcut for this?
Thanks for any help you can give. I hope this makes sense! Joel
