they even have your name at the bottom of the page: "Licensed for use to Joe Hempel" for example.

It's the online Hal Leonard site. I've also used Musicnotes.com. Their selection is wider, but you'll pay much less at Sheet Music Direct for guitar tabs if they have them. They run US $ 0.99 at Sheet Music Direct and more like US $4.95 at musicnotes. Another good site is Freehand Music.]]> Opinions and Polls Musenfreund https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/online-sheet-music-2/#post-334741 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/online-sheet-music-2/#post-334689 Mon, 20 Jul 2009 21:35:57 +0000
Cheers. Single sheets here in the States are almost unheard of anymore, as far as I know. I haven't seen a single sheet for years. At least in my area.

I've used Sheet Music Direct for a couple of songs. They were .99 each. I also used Musicnotes once or twice. I think you have to be very discriminating in looking at the versions they are showing. Some of them were like "What!? What is that!?" Usually all I do is print the first page sample to kind of get started.

If you go to Ultimate Guitar and find a Power Tab, most of those are great. And free. I even found "Pilate's Dream" from Jesus Christ Superstar as a power tab. I want to learn to play it chords and melody.]]> Opinions and Polls Minotaur https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/online-sheet-music-2/#post-334689 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/online-sheet-music-2/#post-334688 Mon, 20 Jul 2009 21:07:10 +0000 http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/

As far as printing it, you can download some kind of software that lets you print onto pdf or in other words, when you print it will convert the output into a pdf file. Yes, but the software that allows you to view the purchased sheet music somehow detects that you are printing to PDF software and not a real printer.
It does not allow you to "print" to a PDF. I've tried. How about using Microsoft OneNote ? We could simply paste the site content alongwith the sheet music as a note.

Or if everything fails, in the end we have the ol'skool method of scanning. Print HQ. Scan HQ. Almost as good as a PDF for me. :)]]> Opinions and Polls Rahul https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/online-sheet-music-2/#post-334688 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/online-sheet-music-2/#post-334685 Mon, 20 Jul 2009 20:24:47 +0000 You do have to download there music viewer and player and they also have downloads for Sibelius and Guitar Guru.
You do get to download the file. The last one I downloaded (Everybody Hurts with tabs) is still on my hard drive and it can be printed out again using their music viewer. So it's not like it's a one shot print deal. The format is very good . . . very readable . . . maybe not as good as good PDF format . . . but good enough for me.
If you want to give it a shot they do have free music you can download and try for yourself.

Good Luck and I hope to learn to read sheet music too in somewhat near future !]]> Opinions and Polls Rahul https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/online-sheet-music-2/#post-334632 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/online-sheet-music-2/#post-334627 Mon, 20 Jul 2009 08:05:00 +0000 Somehow it can tell when you try to print to PDF, and refuses to allow you to do so. Only "real" printers allowed. :(

I expect that you would run into similar problems.

Of course a good printed copy can be scanned into a PDF, if you really wanted it in that format. :wink:]]> Opinions and Polls kent_eh https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/online-sheet-music-2/#post-334627
