about asaph

"Asaph is a tool for Christian music groups and worship leaders for managing song databases. Features include song searching, printing song lead sheets with or without chord markings, and generating presentations for use in group worship. It is open-source and written in Java, so it should run on most common platforms, including Mac OS X, Linux, Windows, and Solaris."

what it does

Asaph manages lyrics with corresponding chords in a database. Asaph transposes easily and allows for preset transposition points. Font types and sizes can be changed without affecting song accuracy.

what it doesn't do

Asaph does not do tabs (tablature) or notes on a staff. Asaph will not play back music nor store music samples. For an excellent (and free) Tab software package, download the Power Tab Editor and visit the corresponding resource page.

about this site

Asaph is free software that is the best for lyric management I've ever seen. It is a secret too well kept. This is the place for support. And that support means downloads, tutorials and a shiny new forum. This is a personal project - a way to say: "Thanks!" to Mr. Azuma and to the OpenSource community at large. It's a non-profit, personal project with no ads.

about the tutorials

I'm never satisifed with the tutorials. This is good. Because they are always being improved and added upon. If your not satisfied with a particular tutorial - make your comments known! Use the new forum.
