If you don't have an ABC program on your 'puter, or they simply fight with your OS, here is a fairly good online converter. It is not perfect, but much better than nothing. I have used it, and it is fairly accurate. O'course, it depends on how accurate the original notation was ;D www.concertina.net/tunes_convert.html |

Have a look at AbcNavigator.free.fr - it's a very useful tool for converting and storing tunes in abc.

I've only ever owned Macs so I wouldn't know where to start, with an ordinary PC. ;D

The abc converter at Folkinfo.org is very useful for transposing to other keys. Don't forget to check the 'show transposed abc' box. I then copy the abc and paste it into the Concertina.net Convert-A-Matic in order to view and print the .pdf which is of higher quality than Folkinfo's printing. |
