- 03Choose strumming or fingerpicking playing profile and confirm GCEA tuning.

Source quality
- Videos where the ukulele is the only instrument transcribe more accurately than covers mixed with a full band.
- Choose strumming or fingerpicking profile based on what the video is actually playing.
- Shorter cover sections are easier to verify than a full multi-verse video.
- Videos with singing over the ukulele can reduce accuracy compared to instrumental ukulele covers.
- Reentrant high-G tuning can create ambiguous fret choices that need a quick check in the editor.
- Private, region-limited, or removed videos may not expose usable audio.
