Some MIDI (.mid), Karaoke (.kar), and Notation (.not) files contain song title and author information, which you can view with the File / Song Title and Authors command.

Some MIDI files store song author and copyright information as the names of empty tracks. It is distracting to see these empty tracks as empty staves when the score is displayed. Yet, it is important the the song author and copyright information is preserved. Notation Player does this by moving the names of empty tracks to the "Other Information" section of the Song Title and Authors window.

To view the song title and author information:

Notation Player will display the Song Title and Authors window, which includes the following information:

•song title

•genre

•composer

•arranger

•lyricist

•copyist

•copyright notice

•other information

 

You can add or edit information in these fields and then save the song file as a .not Notation Software filetype.
