Default Re: rookie to notation

Hi,

If you mean so that you can see it as sheet music, you'll just need to save a copy of your keyboard playing in a .mid file. Some keyboards/controllers allow you to record such files directly. After you get the .mid file, just open it up in Notation Player to see the sheet music. Each MIDI "track" will be opened as it's own Staff in Player.

The caveat with this approach is that to get good sheet music, you will need to record such that barlines are aligned already. You may be able to do this with your keyboard using an internal metronome of some kind.

If you don't have the capability to record a file to .mid, then you may want to check out Notation Composer, which you can record into directly. With Composer, you can even record without a metronome, for example if you want to play with varying tempo. You can then go in after the recording and place the barlines where they belong by tapping in the beat as the file plays.

Enjoy!
Sherry
