What's New

I added new screenshots, updated the description, and the information section of the app.

App Description

Welcome to the Color Tab app.

This app features:

- instructions (what is tab, how to use this app, the Color Tab method)
- information
- compose view for a classical six string guitar
- compose view for a four string or bass guitar

As a guitarist, I wanted to have a way to compose music for the guitar by using tab, but needed a way to include duration for notes. My method uses colors to determine what duration to play each note, which as a guitarist I find helpful during the composing process.

Music instructors, students, beginning guitar players, and those who want to or currently compose with tab will find this app useful, not only for educational purposes, but in using the app to compose their own music as well. (See the screenshots for examples of what a composed piece of music looks like.)
