This service is devoted to all band leaders, singers, recording studios, amateur or professional musicians who desire to place their musical ideas on paper in order for others to be able to perform it live. Digi-Charts provides an excellent resource for all those who want to step forward in the music business and who need some help in music notation.
It is very easy! Just send us your song or piece of music in any audio format: mp3, wav, aiff, MIDI, mpeg, CD, sequence or home-made recording that you'd like us to work on.
We will enrich and provide FORM to your song; orchestrating it, arranging it or simply transcribing it. We'll make it sound coherent and well structured. We’ll make your music sound clean, interesting and beautiful just like professionals do.
Just send us an e-mail. Provide us some information about how you'd like your piece of music to be arranged. We'll apply the laws of music and harmony (chords and melodies), instrumentation (guitar, piano, bass, trumpet, drums, etc).
After sending your sound file along with a brief description of what you have in mind, you'll have done the most important step.
We'll take care of the rest. We'll make sure your music is placed on paper and ready to be played or recorded by other musicians.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
• Why do I need notated music?
= The answer is very simple. Notated music is the most effective way of communication between musicians. It can be from a very simple set of chords, to a complete and explicit score. Instead of expending countless hours trying to communicate your band what are exactly your ideas, it is always better to have something placed down on paper. Having charts, every single piece in your band can have a clear and precise idea of what are they are supposed to be playing at the right time. Having professional notated paper will prevent frustration, wasted time, and in some cases keep your band from being disintegrated.
• How will charts will improve my music career?
= We would say, very dramatically! Having your music notated, will create deep seriousness about your project. Also, it will set down very important parameters in the creation of your original material such as instrumentation, color and style. Notated music will provide you also with security and confidence, allowing you or your band to move ahead onto the stage or into the recording studio and have a specific clear intention of what notes or chords every single person in you band is playing. You certainly don't want to be uneasy while performing in front of 5000 people do you? Opinions from the experts are that the difference between an amateur musician and a pro is mainly the property of notated charts. Frank Sinatra, Sting, Celia Cruz, Alejandro Sanz, Gloria Estefan, Queen, Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey, Aerosmith, Eric Clapton, Alicia Keys, among others, all had a professional arranger in their group of production.
• How do I order my charts?
= It’s easier than you think! Just send us the name and the Artist of the song that you wish to be transcribed or arranged, and let us know how many instruments are in your band. If it’s an original song, just send it in a multimedia format (wav, mp3, mpeg, etc.), CD track, and MIDI sequence or in some cases a “homemade recording”. All you have to do is send me your ideas and all the exact details via e-mail.
• Once I’ve ordered my charts, how do I get them?
= We’ll send you the charts via e-mail in a file, (*.htm) so you will be able to view it, play it, transpose it, and print it using your Internet browser. If for some reason this is not convenient for you, we also offer the option to send you the charts in a package by pony mail.
• What is the payment process?
= We are receiving only checks or money orders for now. The fees will be provided once you have contacted us and given us the details of the work to be done. We will estimate the total amount of your order based on the song’s length, complexity, number of instruments, etc.
