Choose Guitar Tab or Guitar Isolation

Create Guitar Tab produces an editable guitar tab draft. Start with a guitar-only recording, or use a full song where Music Demixer separates the guitar before transcription.

Choose the source

  • Guitar-only audio: returns the editable .gp5 without duplicating your uploaded audio.
  • Full mix: separates the guitar first, then includes the tab, Guitar audio, and a Backing track without guitar.

Isolate guitar without creating tab

Choose Guitar Isolation when you only want audio from a full song. It returns two aligned files: Guitar and a Backing track without guitar, with no tab transcription step.

Choose a tuning for better results

Standard E A D G B E is selected by default. If you know the tuning used in the recording, choosing it can improve results. Not sure? Leave Standard selected. You can also choose Drop D, E-flat Standard, D Standard, Drop C-sharp, or Drop C.

Download an editable Guitar Tab file

The tab downloads as an editable .gp5 file. Open or import it in Guitar Pro, MuseScore Studio, TuxGuitar, Soundslice, GoPlayAlong, or other compatible software. Full-mix Tab jobs and Guitar Isolation also offer aligned Guitar and Backing track audio as MP3, Opus, or 16-bit WAV.

Beta output, built for editing

Use the AI-generated tab as an editable starting point rather than a perfect transcription. Bends, slides, vibrato, layered guitars, dense chords, fast passages, and effects can require rhythm, fingering, string, fret, or articulation cleanup.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do I get after processing?

Each Pack or Pro job returns downloadable files for the output you selected, and a Free Preview lets you play and view them in your browser. Depending on the task, that can include an editable Guitar Tab file, with Guitar and Backing track audio added for full-mix Tab jobs; stem audio packs; DAW-ready MIDI; and PDF score drafts + editable MusicXML.

What audio formats are supported?

MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A/AAC, OGG, AIFF, and most common formats. If something needs conversion, the app handles it automatically.

How is processing handled?

Jobs run through Music Demixer's secure cloud service to generate your outputs quickly and reliably. You upload once, then download the files for your workflow.

Is there a free plan?

Start with one Free Preview job and play or view a representative segment up to 30 seconds in your browser. Buy a 5-job Pack or subscribe to Pro to unlock downloads and full-length results.

Can I convert a full song into guitar tab?

Yes. Upload the song as it is; Separate guitar first is already selected. Music Demixer isolates the guitar, creates an editable guitar tab draft in the tuning you select, and includes the separated Guitar and a Backing track without guitar.

Can I upload a guitar-only recording?

Yes. Choose Use my guitar-only recording when the upload is a solo guitar recording or guitar stem. That route uses the audio directly without another separation step.

Can I isolate guitar without creating tab?

Yes. Choose Guitar Isolation and upload a full song. You will receive Guitar and a Backing track without guitar in MP3, Opus, or WAV, with no tab transcription file.

Which guitar tunings are supported?

Choose Standard, Drop D, E-flat Standard, D Standard, Drop C-sharp, or Drop C. Standard E A D G B E is the default. If you know the tuning, selecting it can improve results; if you are not sure, start with Standard.

What files do I download?

Create Guitar Tab always downloads an editable .gp5 file that you can open or import in Guitar Pro, MuseScore Studio, TuxGuitar, Soundslice, GoPlayAlong, or other compatible software. A full-mix Tab job also includes Guitar and Backing track audio; a guitar-only Tab job does not add a duplicate audio file. Guitar Isolation instead downloads only two audio files: Guitar and Backing track.

Will the guitar tab need editing?

Often. Bends, slides, layered guitars, complex chords, fast playing, and effects can require rhythm, fingering, or articulation cleanup after export.

What audio formats can I download?

For a full-mix Tab job or Guitar Isolation, choose MP3, Opus, or 16-bit WAV for both the guitar and backing track. A guitar-only Tab job returns the editable .gp5 without an audio download.

Can I use the output commercially?

Yes, if you own the input audio or have permission or a license that allows your intended use.
