Turn any guitar recording into playable tab
Paste a YouTube link or choose an audio file. Tab Scriptoria listens for the guitar, writes every note as sheet music and tab with chord names and fingerings, and plays it back next to the recording.
New transcription
The defaults work well for most recordings; settings are optional.
Imports the audio and uses the engine chosen under Settings.

There is no length limit: longer recordings take more time and memory, so you can start with a passage.
Your transcriptions
Open a saved tab. Each engine keeps its latest version; earlier versions stay available.
Solo ideas over your chords
Type a chord progression and get a solo you can hear, read and learn, with a backing band, call-and-response practice, and a map of every note that fits each chord.
Your progression
Starts with an example progression. Each chord is one 4/4 bar; edit the chords and tempo to match your piece.
1–16 chords separated by spaces, one bar each. Examples: Am · Fmaj7 · C7 · Dm7 · G/B.
More options
In the two-fret box every note stays within reach of the starting fret. Slower tempos are a good place to start; these are ideas to develop, not finished solos.
A guitar part for any song
Start from any song, even one without guitar. Tab Scriptoria finds its beats, bars, chords and key; pick the bars you want and get a cover at your level, a solo over them, or a solo dropped into the song.
