• Number of Frets. The number in this field determines how many frets the instrument has

that you want to generate a TAB for.

• String Tuning. Choose the instrument from the drop-down list and number of strings from the

Number of Strings field.

The open string pitches for the instrument you choose automatically appear in the string number

fields at the bottom of the dialog box.

Customize any of the open string pitches by using the + or - buttons on the String Number fields.

Fretboard

The Fretboard tab has these fields:

• Texture. Choose a texture from the drop-down list.

• Orientation. If you want to reverse the standard string orientation, click Low String on Top

(Mirror).

Both the Staff View Layout dialog box and the Tablature Settings dialog box create tablature

settings for a whole track at a time. To modify tablature for selected parts of a track, select part of a

track and use the “Regenerate TAB” on page 1027 command.
