Real Easy Book Bass Clef Pdf File: The Best Way to Learn Jazz on the Bass



I had just finished entering an entire piece for solo piano (treble and bass clef) into Sibelius when I discovered that I couldn't change the colour of individual noteheads in a chord in my version of sib. So I tried MuseScore and discovered that it CAN do that (I need to grey out a load of tied notes because they're incredibly hard to read the ties in some tricky sections). I needed to export the sib file as something that MuseScore could import. Sib can export to MusicXML but only if you pay for a really expensive plugin, no thanks! So I printed from sib to PDF using the free program PrimoPDF at full print resolution (600dpi) and then used the ImportPDF option in MuseScore which meant signing up for a free account and then uploading it to the server, waiting for the conversion to happen, and then downloading it and opening it in MuseScore. SUCCESS! It had added a few bogus rests here and there which just needed tidying up, and it messed up some ties so I tidied those up, and it missed out all the grace notes but they were easy to add back in. Overall it was dramatically quicker to do all that than to enter the whole lot again from scratch in MuseScore, and now I know the technique I can convert some of my other sib scores even quicker if I need to. Very happy! I'm grateful for this thread as if gave me the hint on how to go about conversion.
