The typical requests can be summarised as “I hear the metronome clicking and then silence”.

The usual culprit is the lack of a Guitar In symbol at the start of the document. Tablatures uses Guitar In’s to determine which instrument (as defined using the Score -> Edit Guitars menu) should be used for playback.

When you create a new document, Tablatures already puts a Gtr I symbol at the beginning.
If you delete it or need to change instrument in the middle of a song, adding a guitar in symbol is very easy to do:

1. Tick the Guitar In checkbox in the Musical Symbols Panel:
   
2. Then choose the guitar(s) which should be start playing from the current caret position:
   

Finally, you might want to make sure that all the guitars you have used are actually defined among the instruments used by the score. So let’s use the Score -> Edit Guitars menu and edit them as needed:

Here you can choose the MIDI instrument to use, apply some effects and change its tuning.

A new release of Tablatures is ready for download.

The list of changes since the previous version includes:

• Chord Dictionary: disable the “Add to Score” button when no document is open.
• Disabled autosave on GuitarPro documents, to avoid problems. It’s a good practice to convert GP docs to PowerTab before starting to edit them, anyway.

A new release of Tablatures is available.

The list of changes since the previous version includes:

• Preferences: added an option to save documents automatically every X minutes. Autosaved documents will appear as “name (Autosaved).ptb” in the same directory of the original document, or in “~/Library/Autosave Information” for new, never saved before documents. In case Tablatures crashes, autosaved documents will automatically be reopened.
• Editing the tablature or performing undo/redo while playback was looping over a section could result in a crash. Fixed.
• Fixed a crash that occurred trying to add a system above the first one, when the first one didn’t have any tempo markers.
