    This is the opposite of what I'm looking for...
    I don't need the soft to take text and make it music.
    I need a soft where I can write chords and export it as txt.

    Hi Guys, I just came back to say that I finally found the best solution to create simple chords structures, and it's free and open source:
    Chordsmith https://sourceforge.net/projects/chordsmith/
    You can put the chords, even if mixed with words, they are still recognized, so you can transpose later.
    It's a bit similar to power music, but ChordSmith only allows Chords, not Scores.

    Again, thank you all for your help. :mates: :wink:

    but the old versions, before AVID took over.

    AVID really turned this into a turd software.

    What about dorico?

    You have to install Java https://www.java.com/en/download/, and just double click the main jar file "ChordSmith.jar".

    Yes you can, it works for Win , windows and linux. Just go to the download page and it will automatically send the right file for your system. Just click on the DOWNLOAD bug green button. It's portable, so you don have to install anything , just Java as I said in prior comment.

    Dorico is over complicated for what I need.

    It's interesting, but takes more place, 2 lines instead of 1 and I dont need the grove to be written, if a musician dont understand the grove of a song, I'm sorry but he / she cant be part of my band. For me this is one of the most important criteria when choosing musicians for my band.
    We play Funk, Soul and things like that so, there is no escape from the groove.

    Also it cannot be used in txt format. Text format allows me to copy it in my band's website, and any musician can just copy paste it into a txt file, edit it for his own needs, etc...

    Be great if there was something for iPad where you could just quickly write everything out by hand. I think it would be faster than typing it out.
