So, if you can find the place in Tabledit where it allows you to set the instrument (on my version it is under the Score tab and Instrument), set the instrument to Dulcimer DAD. I have the trial or demo version of Tabledit on my computer and might be able to answer some very basic for getting started questions. When Musedit stops working, I'm thinking I will go to ABC notation, which seems to be impervious to operating system software changes.īut, in the meantime, I can offer some suggestions based on my Musedit experience and what an equivalent function might be in Tabledit. I use Musedit (and have too many Musedit files to count), which is no longer supported but the software still more or less works on Windows 10. There may be some people who are providing classes for Tabledit instruction related to creating dulcimer tablature files and maybe they will provide some input on this thread. Maybe some experience required would be knowledge of sheet music notation and general experience with software tools. Many of the software programs are available with the expectation that a person can "self-teach" themselves on how to create sheet music and tablature files.
