Tools for learning new songs faster & better

[gnjpowell]

Anyone ever use DMM - Digital Music Mentor? It is a PC-based application that analyzes MP3s and other music formats and outputs git chords and bass tab. It can replay the music and simultaneously display the chords and/or bass tab indexed in real-time with the music. You can manually edit-in the lyrics and change the bass tab as desired to customize it.

Another great tool is Audacity. Use it to change the key of a given MP3 or other music file type to the key we will play the song in. Can then play it back to play along with it in the correct target key and can also run it through DMM for bass tab in the correct key.

Two REALLY GREAT tools!

I loaded DMM, called up a song. Put it into WAV.

Then what? Could not get anything to play.

Thanks.

press analyze.

My screen does not have an analyze button. What do I pull down or call up to get to that?

Thanks,
