CREATING TEFVIEW TABS PLUS

Nothing fancy, just simple bluesy rock licks. I’m trying to find an app that will let me create clean and easy tabs so I’m not saddling people with my handwritten version. I don’t need fancy automatic bar line creation, or assigning time values to notes.

The music for license on this website is the property of the copyright owner. I tried Guitar Pro, but that app wants bars and note duration applied and I don’t need that (and don’t have time - I want quicker input without note duration values, etc). You may make copies for your own use - buy once, put it on your tablet, your. Tab Bank looked like the answer but it’s total crap. The formatting is awful, an errant space here or there and the whole thing is thrown off.

Tried a few others too, but everything is kinda sucky. We aren’t talking about rocket science here! Six lines and numbers is all I need, and I’d prefer to not have to resort to Notepad. It would be great if there was an iPad app, but I’ll settle for something that runs on a standard laptop if that’s all that’s out there. Long ago I checked out Sibelius and Finale and they were inscrutable and tedious to work and cost more than I was willing to pay (I guess they were geared toward students who could get discounts, and pros.) My music handwriting is even worse than my language handwriting, if such a thing is possible, and when trying to write music I'd spend as much time with my eraser as with my pencil. I've made tabs for years in simple ASCII text format that were good to share on the internet. The limitations of that format were always a big frustration. It's impossible to indicate more than the simplest rhythms that way, and high notes on the fingerboard are a problem.

Staff notation is better, but is harder to share, plus most people don't read.Įnter Musescore. It's hugely capable, it's under very active development, and it's FREE FREE FREE! I'm sure it has fewer features than Sibelius and Finale, but it's got way more than I use and the interface is lots more user friendly than those other programs were at that time. If the reader doesn't read notation they can just ignore it and it will still be useful. I like to think that even if they don't read music, the staff will still give them a sense of the rhythms. Yes, there is a learning curve, but I've been using it for only a few months and I've got the basics down pretty well. And there's a large user community, and a simple Google search turns up an answer to almost every question I have. Musescore has revolutionized certain aspects of my musicianship, namely notating, transcribing, and reading.
