TablEdit Tablature Editor is a computer program that allows musicians to create, edit, print and listen to tablature and sheet music (standard notation) for guitar and other fretted, stringed instruments, including mandolin and bass guitar.
The original TablEdit, released in 1997, was written by Matthieu Leschemelle to aid himself to transpose in guitar tablature the initial aria from Bach's Goldberg Variations. As more musicians started using TablEdit, Matthieu got feedback from those users, many of whom played other instruments besides guitar. Matthieu responded to their requests and input and as a result, TablEdit is not limited to guitar like other tablature programs. Through ongoing exchanges and feedback with experts on other instruments, Matthieu has developed support in TablEdit for harmonica, mountain dulcimer, diatonic button accordion, drums, violin, tin whistle, recorder, Xaphoon, oud, lute, autoharp, pedal steel guitar, piano, ukulele, and banjo.
TablEdit can open/import ASCII tab, MIDI files, ABC notation, MusicXML and Bucket O' Tab files. Files can be saved in TablEdit format or exported to ASCII tab, HTML, ABC, RTF, MIDI, Lilypond or WAV formats or pasted in to most graphics programs to be saved as JPG, GIF, PNG and most other image formats.
TablEdit runs on Windows, Macintosh, and Windows Mobile (PocketPC).
