iTab For Mac

Commonly used for learning how to play stringed instruments, tabs, short for tablature, are forms of musical symbols or notation that indicate where and when your finger should be placed on the musical instrument in order to produce specific sounds.

Nowadays, if you are trying to learn how to play any instrument, chances are that you will be employing your computer in order to do this. With beginner guitarists, bassists, and drummers in mind, iTab is a streamlined and potentially useful OS X application that makes it very easy for you to search and find tabs.

To continue, iTab enables you to effortlessly and quickly find tabs for guitars, drums, bass, and other chord instruments on tab dedicated websites such as 911TABS and Ultimate-Guitar, so that you don’ t have to open your web browser and do it manually.

Most of the work with this application is done on the top part of its straightforward interface, where you will find an all-encompassing toolbar. Within the toolbar, you can select the instrument, select one of the two tab databases used, opt to view the results in Safari, and search for tabs with the help of artist name and song name search fields.

A worth mentioning feature is the fact that, iTab comes with a very useful Follow iTunes option. Once enabled, the app will automatically “fetch” and display within its interface the tab for the currently played songs in iTunes.

Taking all things into consideration, iTab is an easy to use and useful if you want a fast way to search for your tabs, without having to use a web-browser and without having to go through complicated procedures in the process of doing so.
