TabToolkit is a new App for the iPhone/iPod Touch that lets you take your music tablature files with you and view Power Tab, Guitar Pro, text and PDF files. For those of you that don’t know, Tablature files (or tabs) are a very popular format for composing and transcribing music, especially for guitar players. Tab files are a great way to learn new music or practice a song.
Here are some of the features on board the App:
- Tablature & Standard Notation
- Synthesized Instrument Playback
- Upload & Download
- Auto Re-Orient
- Practice Content Included
- ‘Lefties’ support
Whilst it might be quite a specific App for a niche audience, it does look VERY well put together – I’d be interested to hear if any of our readers have already downloaded a copy – if so, hit us with a comment!
TabToolkit will be available in the iTunes App Store on September 22, 2009 for $9.99 (US dollars)
About The Author
Ben Robinson
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
