Guitar tabs?

[yoda]

It's illegal? How are we harming the artist or losing them money? I can see if someone learns a song, plays a show, and makes money off another artists song, but shit, most of the people who learn to play songs do it for fun or to jam with a few friends, so who gives a shit.

And weed is illegal, so don't be a hypocrite.

their losing money from selling tablature books, which is bullshit, cause you cant even find them for most bands

www.ultimate-guitar.com is where i go now

OLGA shut down, the best site ever was this one where you downloaded the tab and it would play in a midi version so you could play along right with the song which is the problem with tab you have to have the song and the tab to play it right unlike normal written music.

the 6 lines correspond to each string and the number is the fret the note is played on. Whatever tuning you are in the open note of each string is the begining of each notation progression. So lets say you are in standard tuning (e,a,d,g,b,e) and the tab looks like this:

---------
---------
---------
---------
---------
---3-----

you would play the open note which is an e then the first fret which is an a, second fret a#, and the third fret is a b. Your note is a b. Just know what tuning you are in so you know where to start than just go through the notation progression on up the neck until you find your note.

ultimate-guitar has some program called power tab, where it lets you play with the song. i havent tried it out, but my friend said its really helpful.

Powertab: I'm Pretty sure the new version can convert to Staff.
Guitar Pro: If you can get do so.
Thats all youll need . Powertab is free, but GP is not ::Legally:: Free

I've found a couple of programs out there that let me enter the tab, and it outputs it as a midi file. I haven't tried them properly yet, but I'm sure I can get the result I want from one of them.

Thanks for the suggestions, and if you've got any more please post them.

I just wish I could play by ear!
