Dialog box reference ► Regenerate Tablature dialog

Click the Staff view Edit menu and choose Regenerate TAB to open the Regenerate Tablature dialog box.
The Regenerate Tablature dialog box has the following fields:

Fixed. This style specifies where on the neck these notes should be played. When Fixed is selected the Finger span and Lowest fret fields are used together to define the “box” where the notes are displayed. The Finger span parameter determines how many consecutive frets will be used to display the note. For example, if Finger span is set to 4, then Music Creator will attempt to place all the notes within those 4 frets. The Lowest Fret then determines where on the fretboard will the notes be displayed within the Finger span. The red box in the fretboard display above the parameters changes to reflect the settings in these two parameters.

Floating. This style analyzes all events in a track and attempts to optimize tablature with reference to open position

MIDI Channel. This style uses the event’s MIDI channel to determine which string the note should be displayed on. When MIDI Channel is selected, the user chooses which series of MIDI Channels Music Creator receives on. This is useful for MIDI guitarists who record parts in MONO mode, where each string transmits on a different MIDI channel. (Values: 1 - 11). Selecting “1” will cause it to use MIDI channels 1 - 6, selecting 2, 2 - 7, and so on.
This value is determined in the Staff View Layout dialog box, and governs how many frets Music Creator’s Fretboard can display.
This check box is grayed out unless you choose MIDI Channel in the Method field. If you use a MIDI converter like the G50, Channel 10 is reserved for percussion instruments, so if you use a MIDI guitar to transmit on six consecutive MIDI channels, select this check box to avoid using Channel 10 for your guitar.
