TabView 4.0

TabView 4.0 has been released on the Mac App Store.

The main change in this release is a brand new sampled-instrument audio engine:

Playback

  • New sound engine using real instrument samples (SoundFont), replacing the old MIDI synth.

Live control

  • Mute/unmute tracks during playback — no restart needed.
  • Switch the visible score while playing; the cursor follows.

Export

  • Render your tabs to WAV or AAC audio, alongside MIDI.

Import

  • More accurate Guitar Pro (GP4-5) import

Tablatures 2.42

Tablatures 2.42 is available on the Mac App Store.

MIDI playback can now be controlled using the media keys on your keyboard (play/pause and rewind) or the “Now Playing” system menu.

“Rewind” will either stop playback, if it’s currently paused, or it will skip back to the starting point.

Also, there’s a new option to replace the vertical “TAB” text at the beginning of tabs with the guitar tuning.
