2311-Project (TAB2MXL)

This project is for the EECS2311 course at York University.

This repository contains a Java application that converts ASCII drum/guitar/bass tablature (.txt) to a MusicXML (.xml) file using a simple and intuitive GUI. To get started, clone the master branch and run the software on Eclipse with Gradle. Please refer to the User Manual in the documentation folder for more details on installing and running the software.

Disclaimer

For the midterm submission (03/17/2021), guitar tab conversion has been implemented with the restriction of key signature C Major and time signatures 4/4 and 3/4. The drum and bass tabs are currently in the parsing stage, and we are still in the testing stages of the project.
