Simple — Powerful
Harmonica Tabbing Software
Two tools that turn what you hear into harp tabs. Fab Tabs writes your tabs live as you play; Tab-Grabber lifts them straight off any recording. Use either on its own — or together. One-time purchase, no subscription, and a free trial on each.
— Roly Platt
Fab Tabs
Writes your tabs live, while you play.
- Play a phrase — your tabs appear on screen in real time.
- Hear your real harmonica played back — your tone, your bends — not computer sounds.
- Transpose to any position (1st–5th, 12th) and see exactly which harp and holes.
- Scale degrees, a live piano keyboard, and a visual bend tuner built in.
- Lick-Share — send a playable, tabbed link to anyone with a browser.
“I’ve been playing thirty years and this tool is showing me what I’ve only been able to hear. Worth it for that alone.”
— Jay Williams
“Played a lick — it wrote it out for me (and transposed it). Big time saver with my teaching.”
— Randy Klein

“I have worked with Roly Platt for over 30 years in many different musical situations. He is a first class musician and a first class human being.

“I’ve only recently discovered Roly and his fantastic playing. I needed a harp session in a hurry here in the UK, and although half a world away, Roly did the most amazing e-session for me in superquick time, recorded a superb performance, and I now have his number on speed-dial ! He was extremely easy to communicate with, and very easy to work with regarding arrangement directions. I can’t recommend him highly enough and I know we’ll work together again soon.”
“Roly is one of Canada’s best harmonica players! Any style!”
