Transposition options

[danmitrofan]

Hi, can you please tell me how can you transpose a "D-" song in Gb-, Ab-, Db-? There is no such option in the tranposing menu as in previous versions, and it was a simple necessary feature, btw couldn't find the specific thread answers about this, thanks

Experiment with this:
Edit a DUPLICATE (so you won't mess up the original)
In the editor re-set the default key a half-step lower (in this case, C#-) then press "Set" (NOT "Set and Transpose")
Then Done, Done and Save.

You have lied to the player and the default key for your D- chart is now incorrectly set.
But, when you transpose your D- chart up four semi-tones (F-), it will display Gb-.
Down a half-step will give Db- etc.
Be sure to double-check the chart for unintended enharmonic changes that you may need to fix. (Cb, B#, Fb, E#...)
