OTHER MUSIC NOTATION TYPES
After
you have created your music project, whether in GarageBand or another
program,
you might choose a music format that was NOT built from that project's software.

For example, the
Osborne TExt Notation (OTEN) system
described at www.DianaDeeOsborneSongs.com Resources tab for Music Method
tells
you how to easily put your music into a written form for yourself
and other musicians without the "foreign language" of symbols like ♬ or ♮ or ♭ or ♪ .

How do you test to find right Tempo for song?
GREAT TRICK:
Use an odd-number tempo while you are still in draft stage,
and are not yet quite settled on how fast you want your music to go.
On your music sheet, include information such as TEMPO: 113 bpm (odd number).

into a more popping song--
1. Ensure that the GarageBand /program tempo is changed to an EVEN number, and
2. Mark the music sheet to match, such as TEMPO: 114 bpm
3. Make the font for the music sheet's number BOLD.
Afterwards,

Much
joy in Music Writing to you! Creating something that has never before
existed in the universe.... something uniquely out of YOUR mind only,
that no one else would have thought of in the exact creative form you
did..... music is such a joy! And remember --
YOUR music is NEVER wrong!
If you have clashing notes
(as I OFTEN do in my 500+ songs, see DianaDeeOsborneSongs.com),
they are still right if YOU say so! That's your creative mind at work!
