TablEdit Users Say:

"I use TablEdit as a tool to help improve my guitar playing. It is a really useful program for learning new pieces -it is easy to edit and to print off hard copies of the tabs for later reference- and the playback feature with its variable speed means you can hear what it sounds like as you go. I also like the ability to input either tab or music notation or to import or export to ascii or midi files - this means it is easy to convert other forms of music quickly to TablEdit. I have tried many other tab editing programs but none seems to me to be as versatile as TablEdit."
