Guitar tabs from SoundCloud tracks and uploads

SoundCloud to Guitar Tab

When a track lives on SoundCloud - including your own uploads - download or export it to an audio file first, then upload it here. Tabtify transcribes the audio into an editable guitar tab.

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 I paste a SoundCloud link to convert it?
Not directly. Download or export the track to an audio file first - only tracks you own or that are marked downloadable - then upload it to Tabtify.
Does it work with my own SoundCloud uploads?
Yes. Your own uploads are the ideal case: download your file and convert the guitar part into an editable tab.
What audio quality should I download?
Choose the highest-quality download the track offers; more detail gives the transcriber a better result.

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.

  • Works with any SoundCloud audio you can legally download or that you uploaded yourself.
  • Best for guitar-forward tracks, demos, and single-instrument uploads.
  • Same audio transcription and editor workflow as file and MP3 conversions.

Steps

  1. 01Download or export the SoundCloud track as an audio file (only tracks you're allowed to use).
  2. 02Upload that file in the Audio tab and choose your instrument setup.
  3. 03Run AI transcription and open the tab in the editor.
  4. 04Refine notes and rhythm with playback, then save or export.

Source quality

  • Download the highest-quality file SoundCloud offers for the track.
  • Guitar-forward or single-instrument uploads transcribe more cleanly than full mixes.
  • Trim to the section you need before uploading for faster, easier review.
  • SoundCloud streams can't be pulled directly - you upload an audio file you're allowed to use.
  • Only download tracks you own or that the uploader has made downloadable.
  • Full-band or heavily-produced uploads may need more editor cleanup.
