You want to rock, but your fingers keep getting in the way. While this application's design doesn't exactly sing, it has all the necessary functions to help you read music and put your fingers in the right place. TablEdit uses a standard set of music notation marks, and displays a stave in the center of the main program window for you to follow along. One pesky problem we encountered was that at launch, the program toolbars display right in the center of the stave, blocking it from view. You can move these toolbars aside, thankfully. We were impressed with TablEdit's ability to add fingering "hints" to the stave, a unique feature we've seldom found in other music editors. Although the program is able to import and open a number of files, we discovered a few errors in importing ASCII files. The trial limitations only allow one song (of 16 measures, in 4/4 time), which is sufficient for a little ditty but perhaps not generous enough to get into the groove with TablEdit.

Clunky user interface, flawed MusicXML implementation
Consumer999August 12, 2013
Pros
It doesn't crash my system.
Cons
The user interface is unintuitive and quirky, which lengthens the learning curve. For example, there are several different ways to enter text; each of these functions differently, which is confusing. The MusicXML import implementation is very buggy. The playback is garbled, and the assignment of notes to strings in the tablature view is arbitrary and frequently wrong. I found the user manual to be of limited value.
Summary
I am not impressed. GuitarPro's user interface is much richer and more intuitive. The MusicXML import feature is essentially worthless.
IT'S ONE OF THE BEST SOFTWARES I'VE SEEN FOR MUSICIANS

Excellent; Very versatile, while easy to use
LesRiggsbyNovember 14, 2010
Pros
So good; configured my own 'template files' and am using for bass, drum set, and sometimes for guitar. The little support I have required has been raid and friendly; thank you Kevin Saturn.
Cons
Printing options seemed a bit limited, but with experimentation, printed very good sheet music.

Great program, that's easy to use, creates TAB and standard Notation.
Demo version is lame - should be told up front that it's a demo version
December 12, 2002
Pros
Cons
Summary
I think I would like the full version of this to some extent, however, I'm very disappointed that the free download of this does not state that it's a DEMO!! I don't mind trying something as a demo version, but I expect to know that before I take the time to download it. I may consider buying this or something like this, but I would like a little more flexibility to actually use the program. I don't feel the demo version is quite up to the task of providing a solid basis from which to make a decision.
Automatic note duration makes tabbing easy

Pros
Cons
Summary
Not as flashy as some other software available, but the automatic note duration feature puts this at the top of the list for ease of use, which is number one in my books.

Ok, I have an expanding archive of currently 700+ midis. I love them all(well most of them anyways). But I wanted Tab for them to play them on my gutar. That was my literal dream. Well, after downloading this, my dream has come true! Look no further than this program to help you print out your favorite MIDIs in TAB!
