Has anyone used this software to tab a song?
Transcribe!
http://www.seventhstring.com/xscribe/overview.htmlSounds interesting and possibly rather useful. Has anyone used it?
There's a 30-day free trial. Anyone care to try it out and give us a report? (I only have a few hours per week for working on songs currently, so the 30-day trial wouldn't get me much. I will try it when I have more time for tabbing.)
I have used this software to figure out really fast solos on guitar. The slowdown function is cool, because the pitch stays the same.
Also you can select a part of a song and just repeat that part, really good for play-along practice.
The spectral analysis is the really cool part, it shows a neat line over a keyboard and just by inspecting the left side you can figre out the bass part pretty quickly.
all in all, I like this software
I've used Transcribe! to help figure out one song so far, and I found a feature that I really like. Once you've opened a song in Transcribe, you can apply some effects (Fx button) to better hear what you want to hear. Under the EQ tab, I found the 1 Bass Select preset very helpful in making the bass line stand out almost by itself. The effect was better than what I can get using the Low Pass filter in Audacity. I like it so far!
Way late to this, but I use Transcribe! regularly. I use “bass select” and then adjust the tuning up an octave, which makes the bass sound clearer. I actually made a vid for Youtube showing that effect several years ago:
