Post That fancy guide in the back of the band score...
I assume it's in the back of all of them, but I only have the Once Upon a Time one. There's an awesome guide to all of the symbols and notation and whatnot they use. I can figure most of it out, but it's still in Japanese. I have a couple requests:

1. Is there something comparable to that online somewhere I can check out?

2. If not, would anyone want to translate part of or all of it?

3. More specifically, for tabbing out songs (in Guitar Pro 5), there are a couple of things I don't really know entirely how to do, and I plan to share the tabs here when I've finished, and I want them to not have any errors. There is a chord I came across where that wavy bar used to show vibrato was not placed above the note, but rather was running up the side, to the left of the notes in the chord. Can't read what it is in the back. Is it just vibrato?

If I have any other questions, I'll ask here. I'm planning to put them all out when they're finished, but Good Dreams and Thank You, My Twilight are done, if anyone wants them early. Flag Star's just a few more minutes of work away (starting when I actually sit down to do it).

EDIT: No idea why I didn't put this in the Tabs section. :dizzy:

I'll take a look at my bandscores tonight/tomorrow and get back to you, most of it is fairly basic stuff though, so I'll just cover the more unclear things (like "chokes" and "half chokes").

Yeah. I don't understand the difference really between a bend and a choke, if there even is one. Also, arm choking: what? If you (or anyone) has the Once Upon band score, it would be cool to have you check some of the more uncommon things in the tab and see if you would have put it into Guitar Pro differently. I want to make them accurate, but I need a little help.

:shred:

Choking is a bend, and I think arm choking refers to using the tremolo arm on a guitar.
