Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Tabtify's AI-powered guitar tab creation platform. From audio conversion to professional export formats.

Can Tabtify convert Instagram Reels to guitar tabs?
Public Instagram Reels and video posts can be used when the source exposes audio. Private posts, stories, and login-only content may not work.
Why use Tabtify instead of learning from the Reel directly?
The generated tab can be slowed down, corrected, saved, synced with media, and exported, which is much more practical than replaying a short clip repeatedly.
Can I convert Instagram bass or ukulele clips too?
Yes. After the media preview, choose bass, 7-string guitar, or ukulele setup before conversion when that is the actual target instrument.

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.

  • Built for public Reels, cover clips, and creator demos.
  • Metadata preview confirms the source before tab setup.
  • Generated tabs can be slowed down, corrected, saved, and exported.

Steps

  1. 01Paste the public Instagram Reel or video URL into the Media tab.
  2. 02Check the media preview and duration.
  3. 03Choose the guitar, bass, or ukulele setup before converting.
  4. 04Open the result in the editor for cleanup, playback, and export.

Source quality

  • Prefer clips where the guitar is louder than background music or voiceover.
  • If the post has several slides, use the direct video or Reel URL.
  • Set capo and tuning carefully before conversion for better fret choices.
  • Private Instagram posts, expired stories, or login-only content cannot be processed reliably.
  • Highly compressed or mixed Reels may need manual correction in the editor.
  • If Instagram blocks the link, use an audio upload as the fallback.
