You can create musical notation and tabs, and also play it back. You acn either write out the tab and it will automatically create the notation, or you can write the notation and it will create the tab... but of course, when doing the notation, it doesn't always pick the string/fret you intended, but it's all pretty easy to edit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3204188024832829733.post-34210634268708955822008-04-30T23:23:00.000-04:002008-04-30T23:23:00.000-04:00pi are round, cobbler are squareThanks, Dave; goin...pi are round, cobbler are square<BR/><BR/>Thanks, Dave; going to download GIMPPribekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14514550835842428377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3204188024832829733.post-76184316246447387472008-04-30T14:44:00.000-04:002008-04-30T14:44:00.000-04:00You can easily grab a window and make an image of ...You can easily grab a window and make an image of it with the GIMP.

I have a way to write tabs, in Word but, it seems like a big hassle to get them to appear right in WordPress. If I could get them to .jpeg or something like that, I would upload them as photos. I don't have space here in the Winnebago to set up the scanner or, I would just do it that way.<BR/>There are times when I would like to show a little musical example here and there but, I've been avoiding it.<BR/>Please forgive my lack of tech. savvyPribekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14514550835842428377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3204188024832829733.post-31161534563416921332008-04-30T12:44:00.000-04:002008-04-30T12:44:00.000-04:00GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program.

Supposed to be very no-frills, just basic notation kinda stuff. No guitar tabs, I don't think. But, sounds like you just want notation.<BR/><BR/>If you check it out and download it, let me know how it works.<BR/><BR/>IGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
