TablEdit Users Say:
"As a guitar teacher, I find that TablEdit is an extremely useful teaching tool. TablEdit allows me to easily customize my lessons. The combination of notation and tablature enables me to give my students a complete understanding of notated music, and of the guitar fretboard. Every guitar teacher should have TablEdit in his or her arsenal."
Jeff Snesko - New Jersey, USA

TablEdit Manual 2.65
Tutorial
| |
| This portion of the manual is designed to walk you through the various stages of tablature creation. We'll start off with the basic steps and then add features as we go along. Although we recommend that you go through the entire tutorial, how much you actually read depends on your own ambitions concerning the writing of tablature. If you're only interested in writing down basic tunes or licks without regard to how they sound when played back in the program, you may only want to read the first few chapters. If, on the other hand, your aim is to provide a highly detailed tablature that not only contains exact fingerings and timings but sounds reasonably like an actual performance (we call these "Performance" or "Note-for-note" tabs) you'll probably want to read through the entire tutorial.
|
| Shortcuts have been provided in TablEdit for all of the more common functions such as changing note duration (this includes toggling the dotted and triplet functions on and off), the most common effects (slides, pull-offs, hammer-ons, muted notes), changing scale views, Cut and Paste operations, etc. A complete list of the keyboard shortcuts available is found under "Hotkeys". I guarantee you that learning the ones for the functions you use most often will simplify your tablature-writing life enormously.
|
| The first step in creating a tablature is, of course, setting up the framework, whether this be a tablature grid or a classical stave, into which the notes and effects will entered. There are, however a few other things that should be done right from the start.
|
| Note entry is, of course, the most basic of operations in TablEdit. Notes can be entered in either the tablature grid or in the stave. There are, however, differences in the procedures used and the functions available in each.
|
| This explains the importance of correct note duration as concerns both the appearance of your tablature and the sound it produces.
