Frequently Asked Questions

Yes — it separates the guitar stem first, then transcribes it. Heavily distorted or layered guitars are harder; clean, prominent guitar parts work best.

NutifAI produces standard notation, MIDI, and a fretboard visualization with suggested positions — not classic ASCII/tab notation. You can import the MIDI into a tab editor such as Guitar Pro or TuxGuitar to generate tabs.

AI transcription is a strong starting point, not a finished score. Clean recordings of a single instrument transcribe far better than dense, heavily produced mixes, and you should expect to tidy up timing and the occasional wrong note afterwards.
