"contributed" could mean he gave them the UAG solo section and that's it... maybe even less!

I checked and it says "edited by JP", which hopefully means that he corrected the mistakes :)
I will know when I finally start reading it, one of these days, I hope :)

Transcribe's waveform/spectrum analysis has nice feature which help you identify harmonics, too.p

Pretty sure that's referring to a note's harmonic series that you can see on a spectrum graph, not whether or not a note is played as a harmonic. (if that's what you meant)

There are exactly the same functions in the Transcribe:
  • "Mono/Karaoke" - you deicide how much of each of the original 2 channels should appear in mix, so sometimes some parts of the recording cancel out. Sometimes is extremely useful tool for picking out individual instruments.
  • "Tuning" (pitch shift) - helpful for, as you mentioned, e.g. bass part analysis
It has nice 31 band graphic EQ, too, not bad to removing some parts you don't need to hear, e.g. crash or china :)

It's "karaoke" fucntion is not the same. The way normal karaoke works is through phase cancellation of a stereo file. You take the right and left channels, flip one of them out of phase, and then recombine them into a mono file. That mono file contains the L and R channel data merged into one, but with the center canceled. ASD's karaoke method uses a much more complicated algorithm that allows it to actually output a stereo L and R file but with the center still removed. Any other karaoke function I've ever seen has both L and R merged to mono...

I think one problem is that nobody goes in recording thinking, "Man, I can't wait to get this printed in a tab book!"

I remember reading the Passion and Warfare tab book for Steve Vai. Steve made some mistakes in the song and the guy(s) that tabbed it out actually wrote down what they THOUGHT he was supposed to play, instead of the mistake.

That's how I read it, anyway.

Learn it all by ear, and then compare to video footage if you're able. If it looks, sounds, and feels right.. then who cares? Besides, those guys NEVER play it exactly like it was recorded.

Learn Guitar Chords

Sometimes people have a little trouble when they are starting to learn guitar tab because they think it might be similar to reading music. One of the first things to understand is that it is more like looking at chord diagrams than reading music. A chord diagram is a graphic representation of what to do with your left hand to play a chord. It is a picture, not a set of notes you read, like you would for the piano.

There is at least one thing that tab has in common with music; higher notes are written closer to the top of the staff (towards the top of the page) and lower notes are written closer to the bottom.
