- Musicians learning or rehearsing songs from recordings
- Worth noticing
- The site demonstrates a guitar fingering matched to GANG’s recording, rather than the standard textbook Am shape.
Field notes
The page’s worked example follows “Kaltes Wasser” by GANG through separated vocals, guitar, bass, drums, and other material. It also describes outputs including MusicXML and MIDI, plus tabs that stay in one position with capo use accounted for. The app is presented as a beta, and access to its download appears to require a short signup and approval.
