Press the number of the fret you want to finger there Select the type of note you want (quarter, half, whole, eighth, etc) from the note pallet (it's one of the floating windows)
#TABLEDIT NOTES FULL#
The full rest is shown on the melody line. Select File->New to bring up the New Tablature dialogĬlick only one of the checkboxes for a single instrument and in the drop down next to the checkbox select "Dulcimer DAD" or "Dulcimer DAA" as appropriateĬhoose the number of measures you'd like in your song, the timing (default is 4/4), and the scale (probably D Major unless you know you're using a different scale)Ĭlick on greyed out full rest symbol in the tab area of the music staff. I'll try to outline to basics of getting started: Start with a little and build on it.īoil_Them_Cabbage.tef Boil_Them_Cabbage.mid

It's a learning process, so don't try to learn everything at once. You can import this midi file or you can open this tef file and we can use it to discuss what you want to accomplish. So, if you can find the place in Tabledit where it allows you to set the instrument (on my version it is under the Score tab and Instrument), set the instrument to Dulcimer DAD. I have the trial or demo version of Tabledit on my computer and might be able to answer some very basic for getting started questions. When Musedit stops working, I'm thinking I will go to ABC notation, which seems to be impervious to operating system software changes.īut, in the meantime, I can offer some suggestions based on my Musedit experience and what an equivalent function might be in Tabledit. I use Musedit (and have too many Musedit files to count), which is no longer supported but the software still more or less works on Windows 10. There may be some people who are providing classes for Tabledit instruction related to creating dulcimer tablature files and maybe they will provide some input on this thread. Maybe some experience required would be knowledge of sheet music notation and general experience with software tools.
#TABLEDIT NOTES HOW TO#
Many of the software programs are available with the expectation that a person can "self-teach" themselves on how to create sheet music and tablature files.
