Wait For Something Better [Posted on 2007-09-16]
It's clumsy and, more often than not, just plain wrong. I bought this primarily for a friend who is, in many respects, very much a beginner guitarist. I spend an inordinate amount of time editing the mistakes the software makes. I would not recommend this product to a beginner. An experienced player would not need the software because their ear would serve them better than the program. However, an intermediate player might find the product useful, especially the feature which slows down the song without changing the original key to the song. Good for practicing solos. But I understand there are other products that also have that capability. If you ignore all of the "noise" and by "noise" I mean unnecessary chord changes that the program picks up from other instruments or vocals, it will tell you the key of the song and (usually) the basic chord structure of the song. After that you're on your own.

Don't expect any customer support... [Posted on 2008-05-16]
If you are looking for a "chord finder" software, then this is about the best you're going to get. Unfortunately, there isn't much out there that works. This software gives you an idea of what chords go where, but don't bet your house they will be right. This software DID NOT work on Vista. I tried several times to get it to work, but it never did. Don't buy it if you're wanting to use it on Vista! It works OK on WinXP, but there are still little things that aren't reliable...like the chords. I tried on several occasions to contact the "customer support", but I don't believe there is such a department. I never heard back from them a single time. As I said, it is about the best out there. It did help me to get close to what chords went where. Hopefully, in the near future, there will be a "chord finder" software that actually works.

Valuable tool [Posted on 2008-05-21]
I have used this software for years, and really had good luck with it. It does what it does better than anything else I've found. I have run this software on both WinXp and Vista with no problems, and its helped me out with some very tricky songs.

I do wish that it did a better job at handling lyrics and lead/chord sheets.
