Hi John
I use a similar setup with my laptop with the sheet music scanned in.I am not familiar with Encore, except it is a notation program. Does your music scroll? I use MidiNotate Composer for scrolling notation and Lyrics,but that is midi.All of my songs are on SD pulled up by number.

Maybe your laptop program is better than a scanned leadsheet,especially ,if it is more than one page.

Bernie,
Encore, my notation program displays the music sheet with and without words. If I have other songs I wish to play with that same setting, I have a page 2, and 3-- as many as I wish. One click on the number and the new song/sheet music is displayed.

My word program is easy -- Lyrics and chords -- select song, if there are more scroll down the page.

I have heard of a switch which will take you to the next page or scroll. When I find it, I will rebuild it into a foot switch. Weeee, no hands.

My only problems;
1-I need a bigger screen -- these old eyes??
2-I have so much in the program (many songs and combos of songs) that the learning curve is a bit of a challange. Too much of a good thing.
I will never forget the days of searching thru my books for a request.

Bernie, I will bring a CD with my info on it to the Meeting in April. Im hopping you'll be there.

Take care, John C.

Hi All; I've set my SD card up as follows: Big band foxtrot, westerm foxtrot, rumba, tango, samba, cha cha, waltz, and polka. Then I arrange the styles by tempo, i.e. below 100 - 101 to 120 - 121 to 150 and above 150. I have them "listed" in a note book by folder# then song# next tempo and last name of song. As my taste changes i can del a song and replace it with another. Then go into the computer and make the change/s to the list. one word: I am not a musican I use the kn7000 for my listening enjoyment while working on the computer.

A word to Fran; I was in flight 1496 at Sampson AFB 1/6/52

John

Hi, Bernie, Bruno, Fran.
This type of theme of this post is just what is needed to keep the interest in the forum. I started to catologue all my sheet music about 12 months ago but due to the pressures on time I have only got to about 1500 and then no further. What you are doing is obviously a much better way and it would seem that I would be much better staring over again and doing it your way. I was in Florida on holiday 3 - 5 weeks ago and I see from looking at your profiles that I must have been very close to all of you.(Fort Charlotte,West Palm, Palm Bay)
I am now back in the U.K. but I will be back again soon. Would look forward to hearing more details of the notation programs, I do have Midinotate which I use for converting midifiles into notation.

Regards
Peter B

Bernie and John C,

Look forward to seeing both of your setups at the Jam. Like you John, I need larger print as the days go on.

Dick,

The world grows smaller. I was at Sampson Basic in November 51 but sure cannot rember the flight number, just the wind.

Fran in Florida

Peter B,

Let us know when your next trip comes up. Would like you to stop by.

Fran in Florida
