Most likely it's due to pitch bends in the file, which do indeed alter the pitch of the notes, and can goof up the notation. For example, a note may have been entered as doh, but then a pitch bend was applied to the note to make it doh#. In that case, your ear hears "doh#" while the notation on the score shows "doh." Musician does not show Pitch Bend data, but Notation Composer does. Composer also allows you to edit pitch bend data. If you'll post the file and let me know which notes aren't correct, I'll take a look and see if there are indeed pitch bends involved.

ttfn,
Sherry

Hi Sherry

That is fast...Many thanks for your explanations. It is more complicated that I taught....

I am still trying to work out the country style music achy breaky heart.

I am sure about what you said, it is the pitch bend... I am passing the sheet for your analysis if you have time. the sound of a guitar may have influence the recognition.

Thaks once again,

Regards
marc

Hi Marc,

Thanks for the file - lots of pitch bends in there!

I'm posting a copy of the same file here, only with the pitch bends removed. Try this one to see the difference

ttfn,
Sherry

Hi Sherry

Hope your week end was nice and enjoyable

Thanks for your mail, I have appreciated it a lot. To be honest with you, I did not make it.... I am not a good player and the sound given...does not match.

When I come to US (if one dau I come), I will be buying several country song books. There are not available to the french market. Most of the country music incorpores pitch bends, so, I may have a hard headache using musician notation (as I said I am not a good musician) to make the translation to music sheet.

However, the software gives excellents and fantastic results on other type of songs. I have plenty of french standards musics, and the translation to music sheets is just fantastic.

Too bad, the software does not exist in "langue of Molière" (french) but after a little of time of practise, I figured it out....(At least if I wait for the next question...)


Thanks for your help.

Marc
