I think that organ part must have been TWO octaves away from the Guitar Notation's thirdspace C since you "found" it with a 24 half step transposition. Well, in the case of an ORGAN track, likely that the MIDI notes used, whether Realtrack or MIDI, were not in the right octave for Guitar Notation, which, as you likely know, is written in the Treble Clef, but actually sounds one octave lower than written. SOME of the MIDI guitar tracks are recorded using MIDI Guitar and Live Player, many more are likely to have been done with older methods, such as step-entry or whatever "static" methodology. am I missing a setting?ĪLL of the Realtracks are recorded "that way". #176113 - 10/12/12 01:25 PM Re: Inconsistent behavior with guitar tab notation. It seems to work fine now.ĭoes anybody have any idea why the position control seems to work in some cases, but breaks in other cases, requiring the user to manually transpose the track? It turns out that when I set the transpose function to 24, magically, I was able to "fix" the problems I was having when manually selecting a position. Just for fun, I tried using the "transpose" option in the notation window and set it to various settings (-24, -12, 0, 12, 24) to see if maybe the track was just in the wrong octave for a guitar. However, in the particular song I'm having trouble with, that did not seem to be the case, because the track I was looking at in the notation window was actually an organ solo! Definitely not recorded with a guitar.Īfter a bit of playing around, I found something interesting. it definitely looks like the work of a human playing a MIDI-enabled guitar, not an algorithm trying to calculate positioning. I think a lot of the new RealTracks with RealCharts were definitely recorded this way, because if you watch the fretboard view, the guitarist seems to be really intelligently choosing his position. #176111 - 10/12/12 11:17 AM Re: Inconsistent behavior with guitar tab notation.
#WEIRD GUITAR TAB NOTES HOW TO#
Does anybody know how to solve this problem? It would be invaluable to my guitar study to be able to use this auto-position feature on all songs! Honestly, there are so many settings in BIAB that I'm guessing there's an easy fix here, but I'm stumped. You can see here that I have clicked on the 5th position, but the tablature is showing me stuff being played on frets 9 through 14! So, something's wrong here.Īs far as I can tell from looking through all of my settings, everything is configured the same. I can click on any fret and the results are always the same. I follow the exact same steps, selecting the melody track in the notation window, and then clicking on different positions on the fretboard, but the tablature never changes. For reference, it's the ChukRok.sty demo song. Now, the problem arises when I open another file. This is absolutely a great tool for guitarists!
I can practice this song today in 5th position and tomorrow in 12th position. It lets me explore all around the fretboard and play the same notes in different places, which is great for practice. First, let me say: This works brilliantly! Honestly, that's a great feature.
The difference is subtle, but you can see that the D is now played on the second string instead of the third. You can see that it has me playing the exact same notes but with a different fingering this time. Now, if I click on a different position, like position 3, then the tablature automatically updates to reflect that change. (I posted the image on Google docs for lack of a better image hosting service): If I click on the 5th position on the guitar fretboard, the tablature is updated so that I can play in fifth position. I open the melody track in the notation window with guitar tablature enabled. I started by opening a demo song that comes with BIAB. Let me explain below, and hopefully somebody can point me to a setting or something I'm just missing.įirst, I'll show you the example where it works, then I'll show you an example of where it doesn't. The feature works amazingly well! The only problem is that I'm encountering some weird behavior that is inconsistent from song to song. I'm getting back into guitar after a bit of a hiatus, and it's helpful for me to use the guitar fretboard window and the notation window with tablature enabled, because it helps me to visualize the notes in different areas of the guitar fretboard.
