A. Notation to Tablature
Hi.
I wanna give you a demonstration of a music writing program called MuseScore where you can copy the music from the musical notation side and put it in the tablature side and they'll relate to each other, but they remain separate.
So let me go here first and I'm gonna put say I want I want, some quarter notes in here and I'm just gonna type them in.
There.
I've given myself 4 quarter notes and I'm gonna copy this whole staff, the musical notation.
I'm gonna put it on the tablature step.
The notes up here have a direct relationship to what's in the tablature down below.
But when I click on the notes above and I wanna make some adjustments to them, you can see I can adjust what's going on up here.
I can add notes.
It doesn't change anything in the tablet or side.
Now if I go back to where I was before and I go to the tablet or side and I say I want that to become a different note, I wanna change this.
I wanna change that.
Nothing above changes.
So they now are independent of each other even though they started in relationship to each other.
If I copy this from down here from the tablet strap to the musical notation, it shows me what these new pitches are based on what was in the staff here.
And if I'd copy this one, I could put it over here.
They are independent top and bottom, but they can relate to each other for moving some musical notes around.

FINALE, SIBELIUS, MUSESCORE, DORICO are all examples of musical notation programs that start with musical notation on a musical staff which can be copied to display on a Tablature Staff. These may or may not remain connected with each other.
Here Steve demonstrates this separate relationship in MUSESCORE.
