Features of 1000 Christmas Hymns
See hymns on your screen exactly as they will print. Functionality includes:
- Traditional SATB 4 part harmony as found in the physical hymnals or melody only;
- Transpose to any key;
- Scale the music and/or verses to almost any size and quickly reformat;
- Re-order verses and/or delete any verses --- display/print just the verses you want;
- Lead sheets;
- Chord names or guitar fret diagrams or none;
- Verses under the notes or after the hymn in 1 or 2 column format;
- Print the music as a chord chart in any key;
- Export verses only to an ascii (text) file;
- Display the music using shape notes or standard round noteheads;
- Display a hymn using either mixed single and double stemming, or using only single stemmed notation.
And when playing,
- Change tempos and specify number of times to repeat playing;
- Specify different general MIDI instruments for the treble and bass clefs;
- When playing a hymn more than once, specify different instruments to be used for each repetition (much like when an organist changes the organ stops at the beginning of each stanza);
- Save hymns as MIDI files which then can be played later or imported into a sequencing program for further manipulation.
