Product Descriptions
SoulBeats.net has a wide variety of products available for the music
in our catalog. The following describes those products in detail.
MP3 - MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3 files. This file type has
created quite a stir in the music industry. MP3 files were the first to
deliver near CD quality audio in a file that was small enough to transmit
through the Internet. When MP3 files became available it became possible
to distribute music digitally directly to consumers' computers. This file
type is currently the most popular method of downloadable music delivery. There are
many portable players that support this format as well as a large selection
of software for playing and encoding MP3 files. Get a player
here to play your MP3 files.
An average MP3 file will take about 15 minutes to download using a
56K modem with a typical 44K connection speed.
All Sheet Music - In order to view and print SoulBeats.net sheet music you must have the Adobe Acrobat Reader, a program
that can display Public Document Format (pdf) files. If you do not have the Acrobat Reader, we provide it
FREE. Just click one of the links below, save the file to disk and install the Reader.
Lead Sheets - Our Lead Sheets contain the basic information needed to learn a song. The sheets give the melody line, lyrics, and
chords to the song, as well as any additional instructions that might be needed. An average Lead Sheet pdf file
will take about 1-2 minutes to download using a 56K modem with a typical 44K connection speed.
Fret Sheets - Identical to the
Lead Sheets except that the sheets contain fret fingering for less
experienced guitar players. An average Fret Sheet pdf file will take about
1-2 minutes to download with a 56K modem with a typical 44K connection speed.
Vocal Score (selected songs) - All vocal parts written out, generally
in SATB format. This notation is for the song as it was originally written or arranged, so the sheet may not exactly match the
recorded music.
An average Vocal Score pdf file will take about 2-3 minutes to download
using a 56K modem with a typical 44K connection speed.
Instrumental Score - All instrumental parts
written out. The instrumental scores can range from a single piano part
to a full orchestration depending on what was originally written.
An average
Instrumental Score pdf file will take about 2-3 minutes to download using
a 56K modem with a typical 44K connection speed.
Custom Sheet Music - All sheet music available through SoulBeats.net can be custom ordered in any key!
Yes, you read it right - all of our available sheet music in any key. The song mode will not be changed - songs in
a major key will remain major and those in a minor key will remain minor. If a kind of sheet music is not available
for a given song on the corresponding album page, we will not be able to provide custom sheet music of that
same kind. For example, if there is no Vocal Score for a given song, we cannot provide a Vocal Score in a
custom key for that song. And Custom Sheet Music can be ordered only for songs within our catalog. We
cannot provide custom sheet music for non-SoulBeats.net songs or artists. To order custom sheet music, click

MIDI Files - Our MIDI files follow the General
Midi specifications. These files can be used for backup instrumentation or as an aid to learn parts, and are frequently recorded at
different times than the CD, so they may not be an exact match. An average MIDI file will take about 30 seconds
to download using a 56K with a typical 44K connection speed.
