TabViewer

Released Electron version GitHub Release Date Platform Preview Song sheet partly removed due to copyright

Easily view and annotate your music tabs all in one place. TabViewer enables you to view music sheets and switch between songs, music keys, and lead sheet/chord sheet formats within a folder. Annotate your music with handwriting, text, or highlights, and export it as a PDF.

Installation

To install, go to the releases page and download the setup .zip for the latest release. Unzip the file and run the installer to install! Each release has a VirusTotal check and a checksum to verify that the download does not contain any viruses.

Usage

Currently, songs files must have the following naming convention:

song-name-A-cs.pdf

where A is the key that the song is in, and cs is cs or ls for chord sheet and lead sheet respectively. Place all your song sheets into a folder, then open the folder in TabViewer. If you have a song in multiple keys and correctly followed the naming convention, you can change the key using the dropdown menus. The same applies for songs with both chord sheet and lead sheet files.

In future updates, I plan to add an upload section to the app, so users can upload files and have files automatically renamed.
