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 turn an MP3 into a ukulele tab?
Yes. Upload the MP3, choose ukulele, and it generates an editable tab mapped to standard GCEA tuning.
Will it detect ukulele chords or single notes?
Both. Pick the chord profile for strummed songs or the fingerpicking profile for individual-note parts before converting.
What if the song is out of ukulele range?
Notes far outside the ukulele's range may be transposed to fit GCEA; you can adjust the result in the editor.

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.

  • Reads MP3 files directly, mapped to standard GCEA ukulele range.
  • Best for melody lines, fingerpicking parts, and clear single-instrument passages.
  • Opens in the editor so voicings and positions can be corrected before you play.

Steps

  1. 01Upload your MP3 file in the Audio tab.
  2. 02Select ukulele, tuning, and the fingerpicking or chord playing profile.
  3. 03Run AI transcription and open the ukulele tab in the editor.
  4. 04Refine voicings and timing with playback, then save or export.

Source quality

  • Ukulele sits in a high, narrow range - clear, uncluttered MP3s transcribe best.
  • Melody and fingerpicking passages map more cleanly than dense strummed full mixes.
  • Choose the fingerpicking profile for note-by-note parts, or the chord profile for strummed songs.
  • Fast strumming and overlapping instruments can be hard to separate into individual notes.
  • Parts recorded far outside standard ukulele range may be transposed to fit GCEA.
  • AI output is a starting draft; expect some cleanup for rhythm and voicings.
