Does JS handle Key changes?  I tried and it simply wants to transpose my entire song.  Great, if that is what you want.  I have a song that starts in the key of F and at the bridge moves up to the key of G.  As of this moment, the only way I can think of how to do this piece in JS is to do it as two songs, run the mp3's on each of them and then join them afterward using another piece of software.  Seems like too much work for a little bit of fun.

I do like the transposing feature, just don't impose it on me!  Perhaps if key changes were only allowed on separate pages, it would be easier to implement.  Or at the very least allow me to mimic a key change be entering the Chords to play via the keyboard and not just a mouse click.

hello rob.
I've been following your posts with some interest - a lot of issue additions that many have wished for - you state them well.
As far as key change within the song itself, there is a full list of "chords" on the far right - you could do that manually without transposing, could you not?

Ya know... right after I posted this, I remembered I was forced to choose a Gflat instead of an FSharp (I wonder is there any a musical symbol button could found on the toolbar - being this is a forum about making music and all  Grin) Did the happy face work?  I don't get out much, just keep playin...just keep playin...

Anyways, it sure would be nice to be able to BSharp instead of AFlat.

I did not know this...
That if you try to change keys WHILE a song is playing, it skips playing back some of the chords.  Perhaps a pattern could be established here and this "feature/bug" could work as an advantage to insert "rests" in the middle of a song.

Just a thought...
