- Transposer - is a software program that works with Microsoft Word to transpose chord sheets.
- Taylor Expression System Pre-Amp Fix - describes a fix I discovered to work around the low output level of Taylor Guitar's Expression System I.
- Real Book with Real Names - is a collection of Band-in-a-Box tunes from the Real Book.

I've renamed all of the files in this collection using the full name that appears in the Real Book.
