Exporting Notes and Chords

If you would like to move your work out of Capo to a scoring application or DAW, you can export chords and/or notes to MIDI files.

Export notes and/or chords

• In the File menu, choose one of: Export Chords…, Export Note Entries…, or Export Notes and Chords…
• Choose a filename to use for the exported MIDI file, and choose what you would like to export from the Export popup button

NOTE: Capo will show a different Export menu item in the File menu depending on whether your song only has notes or chords contained within it. If both are present, you will be given a choice of what to include in the file.

Technical Considerations

• Fret and string selections are not preserved in the exported MIDI files
• MIDI files are exported at 60bpm to preserve a 1:1 correlation with the original timescale in the audio file. If you drag the audio file alongside the MIDI data in the DAW, the note and chord entries will be synchronized
