Dictionary - Songs can rise and fall on good rhymes
and rhyme schemes.

11,000+ entries, including slang, you'll have a wide
assortment of choices to give your song a more original edge
and give it the potential to be even more dramatic and more
emotional.
With its
focussed rhyme set it synergizes with the rhyming
dictionary already in your head - the majority of it's
word associations are perfect rhymes.
To get extended or near rhymes just pick a like sounding word
and run Lyricist's Rhymer.
For example, if you want to rhyme the word "time," click on
Lyricist's Rhymer button and gets lots of perfect rhymes:
Lime; slime, climb, dime, etc., and then to get a near or
soft rhyme you could try the word "pie." Type in "pie"
and then hit the Rhymer again and and get cry, defy, die,
drive-by, and 50 + other near rhymes
You can
easily find just the right rhyme and may even come upon a
word that adds layers of meaning to your original idea.
And since it's frequently used - the Rhymer button is one
of the BIG buttons along Lyricist's top tool bar for quick
clicking.
And whether you're on a desktop or laptop you save not
having to lumber with a tomb of a rhyming dictionary on your
lap.

word.

Guitar And Piano-Keyboard Chord Style Charting Abilities
- Lyricist makes it easy to enter either guitar chord symbols
(fret finger board charts - guitar glyphs) and or standard
chord symbols for guitar and piano-keyboard or other instruments
along with your lyrics. Or
create chords only charts separately.
Lyricist
makes it fast to prepare your songs in today's standard
chord based lead sheets.
Chord
based lead sheets are typical musical shorthand song representations
that today's songwriters use. This approach is based on chord
guitar and chord piano or chord style methods.
It's shorthand because it saves you from writing out your
musical arrangement in standard musical notation format.
Chord
style lead sheets are akin to the format you'll find in
music fake books. With chord style lead sheets you often
can get your entire song on one page of paper. Obviously one
advantage is that this is much less cumbersome than multiple
pages of sheet music.
Also with
chord style arrangements you can switch between piano-keyboard
chords, guitar chords or the Nashville Numbers System (more
on this next up).

Readily
Prepare Your Songs' Chord Progressions With The Nashville
Numbers System - Lyricist's
Nashville Number System support enables you to quickly convert
your chord charts and arrangements from any standard key into
the Nashville Numbers format making it easy for players
to transcribe the song into any key - on the fly!
The Nashville
Number System is quite often used in producing country
song demos particularly in Nashville.
Nashville Numbers allow musicians to easily play in one key
or another usually depending on the best key for the singer
without having to rewrite your chord charts.
Easily
add an extra chord chart of your song with the Nashville Number
System when you're sending your song off to a Nashville demo
studio or going there yourself to demo it.
And note that good musicians anywhere can interpret a Nashville
Number chart so it can be useful in many situations.
-
Easily
Transpose Your Songs To Any Other Key - The
Song Transposition feature allows you to quickly and easily
transpose your songs between musical keys and also back
and forth between Piano and Guitar style chord charts and
even into the Nashville Numbers System!
When you
want to change the chords of your song to another key and
you want the chords of the new key to appear (verses just
numbers like with the Nashville Number System) simply use
this feature.
This helps
to prepare your song in any key you need quickly and writes
in the new chords for you.
Real handy when your singer calls at the last minute and
wants to sing in F and your song is in C.
A great alternative when the Nashville Number System is not
familiar to your musicians or singers.

Fly
Your Files Across Town Or Around The World With The Media
File Launch - If you have
an MP3, WAV, MIDI, or RA file of the song you're working
on, even a rough mix, or even a scanned file of the song's
copyright form, or any file that relates to your song - link
the file to the song and launch the file with one click.
It's mailed out through your email
program in an instant.
Here's how it works - Lyricist opens the file using your computer's
default program for that file type. No need to switch
to Explorer or your Desktop to find that file and then
go through the process of opening it. Just click and
go.
Share your songs quickly via the Internet. Indeed, more
and more song demos are being accepted over the Internet verses
having to send a cd through the mail. As Yogi Berra might
have said, "The future is here."

Keep
It All Organized With The Four Different Song Views
- Lyricist features four different ways to view your
work.
The
Song Lyrics view is the basic lyric writing and editing
window. Chord Charting lets you add guitar chord
symbols and or standard chord symbols for piano or other instruments
to your lyrics. Also switch into the Nashville Arrange
when needed. And the Song Arrange view lets you view
your chord progressions without the lyrics.
All views contain the basic tool bar with the rhyming dictionary
button, thesaurus button, etc. across the top of the screen
for quick access and usage.
You'll
readily stay organized with all the items you'll need to write
your song, to prepare your song for a demo session or for
playing your song live. Or simply for your own reference particularly
to practice or record your song at your own leisure.

Create
First Rate Professional Looking Lyric And Lead Sheets Or Run
Off And Write In Color And Crazy Fonts And Stimulate Your
Creativity With Programmable Text Styles -
Lyricist
is loaded with Style buttons for Title, Copyright, Chorus,
Verse, Bridge, and even user-defined Styles.
For example simply select your Title text and click the Title
Style button and it saves the text style you created from
then on.
All this
makes it easy to create a consistent, professional look
and saves time as you can quickly format the layout and
look of all your new songs afterward. Change it around
anytime you want.
Or anytime go crazy with color and font styles as you write
but if you send out your lyric or lead sheet - black and white
with standard, readable fonts like verdana or Times New Roman
are usually easier to read :)
