Okay, I am a Finale 2014 user; any ideas on a good approach to make 'study/practice' sheets that look like Emmett's scores as per this chapter?

It's gotta be quick and dirty, and so far GP6 is useless for this application...

Thanks in advance, guys!

@#@$%$!!!

All right, I tried to do this myself, and kind of came up with a way using the "Graphics tool" and some quickly made things. I am thinking that with some revision, this could be pretty damn useful... I know, I know it's kind of primitive at the moment... lol

My first "modal guide" for MR tuning... Voila!

I feel your pain, brother, but I'm completely clueless here. I'm surprised none of the peeps that love notation (which is not me!) have chimed in. I like Sibelious myself but I don't use it much. And for a piano player, I sure don't write this stuff down for other piano players to play, like I did when I was younger and had girlfriends who could sight read anything you put in front of them, but couldn't make up anything. Best of luck!

Dont look at me, until I can play my two sets really well I'm not likely to write anything down.... :D :D :o, though I wish I could..

All good guys. Actually, Emmett's method is most efficient with a pen and notation paper so far. Lol I have to get to know Finale better to, but this is an extremely efficient way of writing down arrangement and improvisation ideas. I will work at it a bit...

You’re probably better off using the notation software to create a document that has the melody and blank staves below and add in the fretboard info either by hand or another program. I think Preview should be able to handle lines and shapes if you really want to have something that isn’t done by hand.

Thanks Claire, a good idea!
It actually works pretty good for me to just create the modal diagram in illustrator or Photoshop or something, and then do a graphic import in Finale. I suppose I could just use Preview if I had nothing else, but lucky me I have other softwares for that sort of thing!

I think I have it figured out, lemme know if y'all have a more efficient way to do things along these lines...
