I'm starting a new thread for my Delirious? powertabs as well as any others people do. I've just completed Majesty based on the free mp3 from their website since I don't have the album yet. It's tuned 1/2 step down so I used Transcribe! and bumped everything up to standard pitch. If you don't feel like tuning your guitar down, just change the gtr tunings in the guitar setup. You can now get the text tabs for guitar and bass in the CGR archives.

how to use transcribe

If you haven't downloaded yet, but I assume you have, you can get it here. Songs have to be in mp3 or wav format to work. Here are the main features I use and how to use it:
Slow down playback: simply click 1/2 or 1/4 respectively

Change pitch of playback: Options, Tuning, then raise or lower tuning using the semitones slide bar. 1/2 step is 1 semitone, 1 step is 2 semitones

You can analyze a note by highlighting a small piece of the waveform and below will appear the frequencies played. You'll need to know a keyboard layout to understand which notes it suggests. The higher the peak, the more likely that is what the note(s) is. But sometimes, other frequencies show up from drums, bass, etc. It can be tricky.

Insert markers to mark off sections to help with figuring out note durations.

Select small sections of the waveform to isolate a bar/measure/note.

Vocal remover (this usually works): Options, Stereo Mix, Out of Phase

Use the slider in Stereo Mix to isolate right and left sides of the mix too. Just pan to left or right accordingly.

Well, that's a pretty good start. It's a really helpful program. I couldn't figure some stuff without it.

WOW!! Cool thanks alot

Okay, I've finished the guitar parts for Rain Down as based on the mp3 from their website. Once again, Transcribe really helped on the nearly inaudible stuff. It's pretty much note for note as close as I can tell. Cool harmonies in the Bridge. Not really a one guitar song, though. At one point there are four parts so I had to use high and low melodies just to get it all without leaving out something. (Bass is now complete. Note it's in Drop-D).

can u give me an estimate to when my glorious or history maker will be finished?

[scheller]

not really. I haven't even started on My Glorious but will do that next. Do you need it for something important?

Hey Cool to see u have tabbed some songs.. i am wondering if u know how to play the solo for investigate-live version.. i really needed it urgently
thank u so much God bless

[J.W4Christ]

is it to large to attach a song here
or are there any other ways to send u the song

[scheller]

Well, in the past the mods will allow for part of a song to be posted for purposes of figuring it out, but I'm not sure about the whole song. Afterwards, you'd just delete it. I don't know the size limits though. And I'm not sure what programs you need to cut out part of an mp3 and save it. Any experts out there?

[scheller]

Hey guys, could any of you who have the World Service album tell me if the free mp3 on their website is the same as the album version?

[Switchfoot191]

its almost the same but intro theres drums and In the chorus there is like a choir singin majesty and other weird noises

[scheller]

Thanks for the info on Majesty!

J.W4Christ: I borrowed my friend's cd, so let me know if you want the solo from the Glo album version of Investigate or not. I don't know what the live version is on.

[spmantar]

The live version of Investigate is on the Access double CD set. It's very similar to the studio version, except Stu expands on the main solo and does a whole lot more with it (I think. I haven't listened to the song in a while).

Edit: Haha, that was funny. I used a colon and a capital D after Access, because that is how they spell it. The big smiley face is there now.

Thanks. In that case, I only have the album version and wouldn't be able to tab the live version solo. If you wanted the soloage after Investigate on Glo Part II, it would take me a good while. I'd like to eventually tab Investigate and maybe Glo Part II, so I'll just add it to my to-do list.
