Noteflight – New Web Based Notation Software
If you are a little behind the times, then you don’t know that everything is shifting to “cloud” computing. This means that our information is going to be held somewhere out there in cyberspace. If you are worried about backup, then would rather back everything up with your own hardware or just know that Google and others back theirs up for you anyway.
Anyway, you need to check out this site called: Noteflight.com. It allows you to put your music down and share your files like Google Documents does. It also allows you to directly embed it into your web pages (like below). Some features are missing (like three part writing on a single staff and specialized characters like guitar strings), but with some tweaking can be overcome (like numbers in parentheses for string numbers instead of circles). Check it out and get composing.
Hey Chad,
Above you mention the website for the guitar composing and such – but it’s written up in the post as Nightflight.com? Perhaps it’s just a typo, otherwise I’m mistaken thinking it was noteflight, but I wanted to call that to your attention either way.
Thanks for the heads up. You are correct in that it is Noteflight and not Nightflight. I changed it and always appreciate corrections.
