I was so impressed with this Buddy Emmons solo but disappointed when I noticed it was on the C6 which I don't have. Could it be done without too much trouble on the E9 by merely having a somewhat simpler chord structure or doesn't that sort of switch work out?

Then if people haven't checked back in a while or if you have added to some that already were new, they can more easily tell which ones they don't have. Then you won't have to remove the NEW later.

A great sound processor. You can use 2 features for free such as pitch shift and save or reverb and save. Make a wav type sound with Windows media player first.

Great. The RealAudio pieces I checked out were mostly slow easy stuff. How about concentrating on tabbing and putting up more challenging solos that would be more likely to build up our ability?

Cooledit96 could be useful in figuring out a tune.

They typically don't bother with the rhythm unfortunately but the dots underneath for the beats as shown at www.buddyemmons.com help a lot. You could notate any variance from eighths and quarter notes any way you can come up with.

A lot of pedal steel is just eighth notes, so it could be easier to indicate beats or rhythms just where there is something else. Q under quarter note, S for sixteenth, - 3 - for triplets. Since I have none of the music for the tabs, they are of not much use without an indication of rhythms or beats...

If you would put dots underneath indicating the beats like at www.buddyemmons.com, it would help a lot in figuring out how to play it or without having to go back to the music.
