Hi!
I´m currently working on my master thesis at university in Norway, and my subject is "How you can adapt to playing steel guitar from being a guitarist".
I need a professional software that can write nice looking tablature, hopefully with an option to include sheet music, but if not so rhytmic notation and text for explanation.
I´m using Sibelius 5 for all other examples, but the pedal steel guitar tab preset included does not understand pedals and knee levellers....
So it has to be a good program!
Anyone who has a clue? |

Ok!
I purchased this program, and have imported notation from Sibelius via midi.
It looks a litter cheaper, but that's ok as long as the TAB are working.
I've uploaded the pedal steel instrument.
How do i type in pedal names? I just see this "slide" function, but that will not work - i need to show the fret and pedal name. for instance 7 B, like it does on TABs in books etc.
Can you help me? |

Anders,
You can edit and use the "pedals" by going to the note menu and selecting pitch change (ctrl-H).
