There are ways. You could transpose the song with audacity. It takes 5 minutes before you can start practicing, but you can save the file and not have to repeat the process. It costs nothing to try. Best, Erik Burggraaf Introducing Ebony Consulting business card transcription service,

True, but for someone like me who always has my guitars in different tunings and likes to play with keys, being able to adjust on the fly is very handy and is a big part of why I got Mpler in the first place. If vlc could do that and bookmarks, it'd be just about perfect. On Aug 6, 2012, at
