Music sheets show how a melody goes: the notes, tonality, mode, time signatures etc. + Unfortunately, a guitar has one same note on different strings several times and the position of the left + hand plays its role. So, the guitar tabs were created where a different notation is used. Every line of a + guitar tab shows a separate string. A number on a string shows which fret should be played on which moment. + Of course, the a time signature is still written on the beginning of the tab and vertical lines separate + a tab onto bars, just like on a music sheet. There are also tuning settings written for each string. + + This project describes a set of \LaTeX\space macros that allow a user to write such guitar tabs. + + \begin{tabline}{3}{6}{8}{E,A,D,G,B,E} + \notel{1}{6}{6}{0}{8} + \notel{2}{6}{3}{0}{8} + \notel{3}{6}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{4}{6}{1}{0}{8} + \notel{5}{6}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{6}{6}{3}{0}{8} + + \nextbar + \notel{1}{12}{6}{0}{8} + \notel{3}{12}{3}{0}{8} + \notel{5}{12}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{7}{12}{1}{0}{8} + \notel{9}{12}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{11}{12}{6}{3}{16} + \notel{12}{12}{6}{2}{16} + + \nextbar + \notel{1}{12}{6}{0}{8} + \notel{3}{12}{3}{0}{8} + \notel{5}{12}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{7}{12}{1}{3}{8} + \notel{9}{12}{3}{0}{16} + \notel{10}{12}{1}{0}{16} + \notel{11}{12}{2}{0}{16} + \notel{12}{12}{3}{0}{16} + \end{tabline} + + \section{Quick start} + \subsection{Generating header} + + A new class called \textbf{\textit{guitartabs.cls}} was created, so, for using this class a command + \begin{lstlisting} +\documentclass{guitartabs} + \end{lstlisting} + should be used on the beginning of a document. + + Every guitar tab has a title of a song, an album and a composer (resp. band) name.

Sometimes some notes are played + out of the rhythm of a song. For example: + + \begin{tabline}{1}{4}{4}{E,A,D,G,B,E} + \notel{1}{2}{3}{12}{2} + \notel{2}{2}{3}{12}{2} + \notel{3}{4}{4}{12}{8} + \end{tabline} + + So, here we have 3 notes, two of them fill the bar rhythmically but we have the 3rd note, 1/8, that goes before the second 1/2. So, such approach of setting the exact position of each note offers great flexibility. + + \pagebreak + \subsection{Example} + + So, let's have a look on the example from the introduction section: + + \begin{tabline}{3}{6}{8}{E,A,D,G,B,E} + + \notel{1}{6}{6}{0}{8} + \notel{2}{6}{3}{0}{8} + \notel{3}{6}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{4}{6}{1}{0}{8} + \notel{5}{6}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{6}{6}{3}{0}{8} + + \nextbar + \notel{1}{12}{6}{0}{8} + \notel{3}{12}{3}{0}{8} + \notel{5}{12}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{7}{12}{1}{0}{8} + \notel{9}{12}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{11}{12}{6}{3}{16} + \notel{12}{12}{6}{2}{16} + + \nextbar + \notel{1}{12}{6}{0}{8} + \notel{3}{12}{3}{0}{8} + \notel{5}{12}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{7}{12}{1}{3}{8} + \notel{9}{12}{3}{0}{16} + \notel{10}{12}{1}{0}{16} + \notel{11}{12}{2}{0}{16} + \notel{12}{12}{3}{0}{16} + \end{tabline} + + Of course, the best way to learn something is to look at the code. Here is comes: + + \begin{lstlisting}[firstnumber=1] + % we create a tab with 3 bars, with the time signature 6/8 and a standart guitar tuning (E, A, D, G, B, E) + \begin{tabline}{3}{6}{8}{E,A,D,G,B,E} + + \notel{1}{6}{6}{0}{8} % 1st bar, position 1/6, 6th string, 0th fret, length 1/8 + \notel{2}{6}{3}{0}{8} % 1st bar, position 2/6, 3rd string, 0th fret, length 1/8 + \notel{3}{6}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{4}{6}{1}{0}{8} + \notel{5}{6}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{6}{6}{3}{0}{8} + + \nextbar % move the cursor to the next bar + \notel{1}{12}{6}{0}{8} + \notel{3}{12}{3}{0}{8} + \notel{5}{12}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{7}{12}{1}{0}{8} + \notel{9}{12}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{11}{12}{6}{3}{16} % 2nd bar, position 11/12, 6th string, 3rd fret, length 1/16 + \notel{12}{12}{6}{2}{16} + + \nextbar + \notel{1}{12}{6}{0}{8} + \notel{3}{12}{3}{0}{8} + \notel{5}{12}{2}{0}{8} + \notel{7}{12}{1}{3}{8} + \notel{9}{12}{3}{0}{16} + \notel{10}{12}{1}{0}{16} + \notel{11}{12}{2}{0}{16} + \notel{12}{12}{3}{0}{16} + +\end{tabline} + \end{lstlisting} + + It is that simple. Of course, the position on the bar determines the length of each note, so, if + one does not need the length to be drawn, one can omit the last argument and use \lstinline{\note} + instead of \lstinline{\notel}.
