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.
- Declares the singing, so the AI listens for a voice as well as the guitar.
- The vocal line becomes the first tab track; a guitar in the recording keeps its own track.
- Opens in the editor so positions, timing, and octaves can be corrected.
Steps
- 01Upload a song with singing, record yourself, or paste a supported public media link.
- 02Pick Singing or humming for a voice-only recording (or the instrument under the singing plus Someone is singing and Tab the vocal melody), then choose guitar tab as the output.
- 03Run AI transcription and open the generated tab in the editor.
- 04Check the vocal track with playback, fix pitches and timing, then save or export.
Source quality
- A clear lead voice over a light accompaniment converts better than a dense mix with backing vocals.
- For a song with an instrument under the voice, pick that instrument and tick Someone is singing so the AI knows what else is in the recording.
- Sung melodies slide between notes; expect to tidy a few pitches and note lengths in the editor.
- A voice bends and slides in ways a fret cannot; the draft snaps the line to frets and you adjust the rest.
- Notes below the guitar's range are moved up an octave to fit the neck.
- AI output is a first draft for cleanup, not a finished arrangement.
