Question Sheet Music with Tab Underneath

Sign in to disble this ad
I would love to have some sort of program that allows me to have the sheet music, then a separate line of tab underneath showing what the sheet music is.

If you have no idea what I'm talking about, look at the little song on Ben Torrey's blog:
http://bentorrey.com:2112/blog/

I could always get the lines on a site, but it would be nice to have it look perfect, so when I print it looks authentic.

Sorry but I can't explain it better than that.

It's not free software, but Guitar Pro can do this, plus more!

Two ways - I often simply fill up the first bar with rests ....

Or you can shorten the first bar to fit the measure using the measure tool (upper left "4/4" tool button).

Or maybe there are ways I haven't found yet :-)
