All the songs and playlists on my Mac and iPads sync perfectly, simply by checking iCloud sync in the settings. Is there no equivalent for PC and Android? Seems like they could sync using a cloud service like dropbox or google drive, but I don't know if that's implemented.

Oh, well. Thanks for the quick response! Those examples will be helpful, maybe not on this chart but in the future.

The chart I'm writing has three endings, the first two being the same. So, it would be nice to notate it with the first ending showing "1,2", and a second ending showing "3". Is that possible in iReal?

Thanks! Made it better, as always.

I've used his arrangement on this youTube performance. He arranges it differently sometimes, but that's what I chose. He plays it in A capo-ed up three frets, so it's actually in C but this chart is in A. If anybody has any improvements on these chords, I'm open to them. In particular...

Lots of versions of this, with the I chord at the end of the A section being played different durations. I've notated it like the Flecktones version, first time through. Big Country - Bela Fleck

Thanks for the help / advice. There are many versions of this tune, and the chords on this chart are the way we play it, as taught by John Mailander. I've modified, as per your suggestions. Grey Owl - Trad.

Salt Spring - John Reischman I don't think it's trad., I think Reischman wrote it. Salt Spring - John Reischman

I've called it key of D. It's actually D mixolydian, I guess Nowthen - Matt Flinner

Here's a chart for Grey Owl, a Canadian fiddle tune. It contains a "crooked" measure of 2/4, and I'm not sure how to lay it out. I've attached two attempts, but I don't like either. Any suggestions? Grey Owl - Unknown Composer Grey Owl 1 - Unknown Composer

Is there a way to do custom marks, like A1 and A2, or to go beyond mark D? Also, is there a way to define a chorus, that can be repeated at different times without copying the whole thing?

Is there a way to specify a chord with no 3rd? In rock / pop, they'd call it a power chord, in bluegrass a modal chord. For example, in something like Clinch Mountain Backstep or Reuben, the I chord is modal, neither major nor minor, though the melody plays a m3 against it.

Thanks for the advice. I've updated the chart in my original post. I think it's good now. Appalachian Rain 2 - Ben Eldridge (Seldom Scene)

Thanks, pdx. How did you get the space at the end of the second staff in the Intro? I couldn't figure out how to do that. That's why I made the measures in the intro so wide. Point taken re showing the repeated chord at the beginning of each staff. Your form is wrong. What you have labeled...

On Seldom Scene's Old Train album. The intro / coda is 6 bars. I widened them to make the rest of the 8 bar sections line up correctly, but it looks kind of ugly. Is there a better way to make the line break after the intro, and just leave some space at the end of a line? Appalachian Rain -...

Form is AABA, which I did with DC al Fine. If there's a better way, I'm open to change. New Camptown Races - Frank Wakefield

Form is AAB. Ookpik Waltz - Frankie Rogers (Edited 5/29/2018 to fix key signature and center the repeat signs)

Although this is nominally an AABA form, both Lightfoot and JD Crowe (who did a great cover of this song) play fast and loose with that, sticking breaks in, starting vocals on the B part, and generally not being strictly AABA. Still, I've done it as a simple AABA in order to simplify for...

Same chart, but I made it somewhat prettier, based in part on that comment. Farewell Blues (Scruggs version) - Schoebel, Rappolo, Mares (1923)

Thanks again for doing this. I understand and appreciate all of your advice except for this one. Please explain.
