  • Why should I become a member?

    You should become a member if you want to make a request to find the sheets you are looking for, or add your sheets and upload them to download other sheets submitted by members. You can get in touch with other people all around the world that plays the same instrument with you or are fan of the same artist whose songs you know very well to play.
    How can I request the sheet I am looking for?

    After signing up, just click on the "Request A Sheet" link at the top of the each page and enter the artist and song name, for which instruments the sheet you are looking for is and if you want some information. After that just wait for some other member to fill your request and system will automatically tell you that the sheet you are looking for is found via email.
    How can I download sheets?

    To download sheets that other members uploaded you should first upload some of the sheets you have. For every 2 sheet you uploaded you earn credit to download 1 more sheet. Keep in mind that by uploading more sheets, you allow people to find more sheets which they should upload first to download and that allows other members (maybe you) to find the sheets they need.
    Why is there a download quota?

    There is a download quota to make sure that members share their own sheets with other members first to make the sheet archive grow. That enables members to find the sheets they are looking for in a quick and easy way.
    Why my request is inactivated?

    After 90 days of active period, sheets that are still not found are inactivated automatically just to make request pool smaller. Because when there are thousancs of requests online, the chance that they can be found by someone and submitted gets less.
    Why should I submit the sheet that I requested before and found now?

    You should upload the sheets that you found so that other members can download them or get in touch with you to trade with other sheets that they have and you don't.
    Why should I fill the requests of other members?

    When you fill other members requests when you have the sheet they are looking for, they can download it by filling other requests (maybe yours) or get in touch with you to trade the sheets they have and you are looking for.
