Try ChordPro and Fumen¶
Copy a short example and see it become a score in PagePilot Viewer. Choose ChordPro for lyrics with chords, or Fumen for a chord chart organized into measures.
Try an example in the app¶
- Open Add in a setlist, then choose Create New → Text Page.
- Choose ChordPro or Fumen to match the example.
- Copy the complete source from the Japanese examples page and paste it into the new page's editor.
- Switch to Preview to see the score. Change one chord and preview it again.
The examples page includes copy buttons, rendered images, and these four complete sources:
- ChordPro: lyrics and chords. Two short lines of original Japanese practice lyrics, with chords above the words.
- ChordPro: verse and chorus. The same song with sections, tempo, time signature, and a performance note. You can replace the Japanese lyrics with your own words.
- Fumen: four measures. A C–F–G–C progression. Change F to Am to try a different chord.
- Fumen: sections and repeats. An eight-measure practice chart titled Evening Walk, with A and B sections and a repeat.
The Fumen examples contain no Japanese text. The images use the Fumen v1.3.3 engine bundled with PagePilot Viewer; the ChordPro images use the PagePilot display preset.
Fumen references¶
- Structure: measures, rows, rehearsal marks, and repeat boundaries.
- Chords: minor, seventh, slash chords, and other chord symbols.
- Cheat Sheet: look up a symbol when you need it.
- Playground: edit the official examples in your browser.
Display chords in another key¶
Both ChordPro and Fumen let you transpose the chords together and display them in a key that suits your singer or instrument. See how to transpose for details.
