bernd -> RE: Transcribing notation to TAB??? (Jan. 26 2013 1:19:17)

The best solution for transcribing TAB by my opinion is Finale. It compatible to SmartScore which is a scan software reading score sheets in standard notation. This software shows what it has not recognized, so it can be corrected. After the correction is done, the scanned sheet is being transfered into Finale. In Finale you can set up the layout, adding TAB lines and generate a rhythm tablature automatically. In the older version I have, fingerings, barre symbols and specific guitar signs must be added manually. If this is done, you can hide the standard notation and replace the TAB lines for its final layout. While generating the tablature automatically, only the lowest possible fret is used. If some passages are played in an absolute position, this range can be selected. For such parts mostly the correct strings are chosen automatically and you save a lot of time in the follow-up. The follow-up of correting tones from a specific string to another is being done fast and easy by clicking the fretnumber und pull it onto another string. The correct fretnumber appears automatically. As I had offered scoring service in the 1990th years, I made some classical TAB-only transkriptions complete with fingerings and all what you see in a standard notation sheet. Although later Finale versions produce a more comfortable processing and a more eye-friendly sheet, my versions look very good, too. Especially they doesn´t look that lousy like GuitarPro. For classical Tabs I´ve come over to do it by hand. If desired, I´ll post a sample page of Asturias (Albéniz) as PDF, that was printed out in Finale from the 90th (then scanned as a picture and generated as pdf) - just see what a good result can look like, not to grab an order [;)] Saludos Bernd
