Transposer: Song transposing program

Transposer is an open source cross-platform program that is very useful! It is being developed by abudeveloper and slinger. It transposes songs with a simple click of a button! Grab your copy here.
A YouTube video on what it does can be found here.
Please tell us what you think!  smile
Btw: this program was written in a language called pascal.

Version Tracking

version 0.4 and under ~ My dad's C++ version.
version 0.5 ALPHA ~ I joined the program, new GUI complete rewrite in another programming language.
version 0.55 ~ First BETA works but is somewhat limited.
version 0.56 ~ New about menu, some bug fixes and a new dialog
before it used to transpose stuff like END as they are all valid characters now you can add words to the list so it doesn't transpose it.

Re: Transposer: Song transposing program

It takes a song and transposes the chords.
Here is an example

Code:

the original song:
Happy Birthday
F                  C

Happy birthday to you
                  F

Happy birthday to you

                       C  Bb

Happy birthday to dear name

Bb    F        C  F

Happy birthday to you

Code:

The transposed song:

Happy Birthday
G                  D

Happy birthday to you
                  G

Happy birthday to you
F                       D  C

Happy birthday to dear name

Bb    F        C  F

Happy birthday to you

Btw this was done by the program  smile
edit: dang found a bug.

Like this:

your song (in the key of A)

A   B   C
blah blah


your song (transposed to key of B)


B  C  D
blah blah.

Maybe watch the youtube video  tongue
