But eventually you'll have to stare stark reality in the face and corral those papers into a real folder.]]> Guitar Players Discussion KR2 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/song-book/paged/2/#post-296569 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/song-book/paged/2/#post-296560 Sun, 15 Jun 2008 17:33:51 +0000

However, I think that initial active group of 1 or 2 is growing to 3 or 4, but I think I'll cap it a 4 for quite some time.]]> Guitar Players Discussion rparker https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/song-book/paged/2/#post-296549 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/song-book/paged/2/#post-296335 Fri, 13 Jun 2008 20:08:52 +0000

A typical cover band - at least one that's built to make money - is going to have a song list of 600-800 tunes, so that's about 3 3" binders. I put the tunes in alphabetical order, and in the front of the first book I make two indexes: one by song title, so I can see at a glance if we have a tune in our list... the other by artist name. Lots of times people will say "can you do tune x?" and if we don't have it, I'll look up the artist and say "how about we do y instead?"]]> Guitar Players Discussion NoteBoat https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/song-book/#post-296274 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/song-book/#post-296262 Fri, 13 Jun 2008 03:26:13 +0000

This second time I started with an Open Office file. I didn't like the result so I went to several open source (mostly LaTeX based) alternatives such as Chord, SongBook, etc. For solos and similar stuff I used LilyPond but now I use an open source GuitarPro compatible sotfware.

I thought it was hard to maintain so I changed to a wiki in a private web server in my lab so the songs could be available in several places and also I could include links to lessons websites with related info. Interesting and easier than the previous solutions but I had to do the index by hand. We had a system crash two months ago and I lost part of the work.

Currently I'm starting to create a similar system but this time is based on a weblog so I can generate easily indexes and also I have a search facility over the songs.

Probably I'll change again next month! :P]]> Guitar Players Discussion Nuno https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/song-book/#post-296250
