Convert a bass-forward song section into a tab draft that can be looped, checked, and edited.
Practice grooves
Upload your own bass recording and turn the idea into notation for practice or teaching.
5-string and 6-string parts
Choose the bass setup before conversion so low notes and extended-range lines map more naturally.

Converter notes
From source to editable tab
These notes are here for setup context. The main workflow starts above in the converter, then continues in the editor.
- Supports 4-string, 5-string, and 6-string bass setup before transcription.
- Works from audio uploads, MP3 files, recordings, and public media links.
- Opens the result in the editor so grooves, positions, and repeated bars can be corrected.
Steps
- 01Upload a bass recording, MP3, audio file, or supported public media link.
- 02Choose the bass setup, tuning, capo if needed, and playing profile.
- 03Run AI transcription and open the generated bass tab in the editor.
- 04Check the groove with playback, fix positions, then save or export the tab.
Source quality
- Use the cleanest bass-forward source you have, especially when drums and guitars are loud.
- Choose 4-string, 5-string, or 6-string bass setup before conversion.
- Short grooves and isolated bass parts are easier to verify than dense full mixes.
- Kick drum, low guitar, synth bass, and room noise can confuse bass transcription.
- Slap, ghost notes, slides, and muted notes often need human review in the editor.
- AI output should be treated as a first draft for cleanup, not a final published tab.
