Free-Form Text! Unlike every other tablature editor, TLC totally accepts ASCII text so all those zillions of tabs "out there" will fit right in.   Just import or Cut and Paste!  Not only is TLC a full-featured rich text editor, it's a database too!  You can easily store and manage 1000's of tabs and lyric sheets.

Transpose Automatically! Transpose from any key to any key with the click of a button. Sophisticated parsing takes apart the entire document letter by letter, finds every chord, transposes them, then replaces and repositions them.  Now you can paste your lyric sheets into TLC and transpose to any key in seconds!

Generate almost any Scale and it's finger positions on the guitar neck, in any Key, for any Fret, using any Tuning and insert it directly into your Text!  TLC can create over 60 different scale types from almost every music culture in the world.  Scales are the key to learning different styles of music and to play lead up and down the neck of the guitar.

Over 1500 Databased Chord positions!  (Which means, as opposed to computer generated, you can actually play them.)  TLC scans your text, looks them up automatically then inserts the chord fingering positions directly into your text.  If you don't like what TLC finds just Hi-lite the chord, Right Click, then replace from a list of alternate finger positions.   You can also look up chords you don't recognize by right-clicking to see the list of available positions.

Booklets!  TLC allows you to create collections of songs and assign them a unique title.  Once the Booklet is created you can add or delete songs, sort by Title, Author or Key and generate a Contents page any time.  TLC also has special printing features to make maintaining a printed booklet easier.

Midi Drum Sequencer.  This is a handy rhythm machine for practice and song writing.   It comes with a variety of sample styles or you can create your own.

Roget's Rhyming Dictionary.  TLC has now incorporated the Roget's Rhyming codes into it's own 45,000 word dictionary.  This handy feature can be surprisingly useful for anyone composing their own lyrics.

Powerful, Easy Search Engine! Tag or Select by Title, Author or Category.  Even has a full text search that scans the lyric sheet and comments text so you can locate by word or phrase!  With TLC you can find any tab or lyric sheet in seconds!

Flexible Printing!  TLC allows you to print by selecting one, any or all your music sheets.  You can then select to print the tab/chord sheets or the "lyric sheet only" sheets.

Built-in digital recorder!  Great for notating rhythms and melodies!  Just plug your guitar into the mic jack of your sound card and record rhythm and accompaniment tracks directly to the hard drive.  Sound files are automatically associated with the song file and show up as an icon as you scroll through your songs.  Supports playback of CD and Midi files as well.  You can even syncronize the recording of a wave file and playback of a midi file to create a two track recording. 

Automatically Generate Tab frames in any size or shape for Guitar or Bass, in any Tuning. TLC will calculate perfect tab frames but lets you design your own.  You can save and recall different configurations.  Now tab frames are easy and instant!

Full featured Tablature editor! TLC "knows" when your cursor is moving over a Tab frame and acts appropriately.   You can Auto-Skip a preset number of spaces, automatically insert Tab Notation with a minimum of keystrokes and more!  The TLC editor works with any tab frame, even those imported or pasted in from other sources!

Manage Your Own Tab and Lyric Website!  TLC now has a powerful Import/Export facility.  Now you can export your songs into plain text or compressed ZIP files.   These can be a single file that contains your whole database or individual files based on Category, Author, Selections or every song.  TLC can also,  automatically create corresponding HTML files with links to category, artists and song zip files.  All you have to do is copy the ZIPS and HTML files to your web site, then link your website to the TLC created index file.  Users then have easy access via your website to your tab and lyrics collection.   TLC does in seconds, what would take days to do by hand!  You can easily manage your own Tab and Lyric website without server side applications!  TLC can even export and import Chords, Tunings and Spell Checker Words!

The generated TLC web pages are easily customizable.  You can define the number of columns and create your own HTML using any HTML editor, then store it as Header and Footer information that is automatically embedded in the TLC generated pages.   

Powerful Import Facility!  What good would all that export power be without an equally powerful import facility?  Exported TLC files can be compressed using ZIP format or not.  When importing, TLC automatically detects the file type, unzips it if necessary and shows you the songs available for import.  With a single click TLC can scan hundreds of songs and import only the ones you don't already have.  Or... you can import by category, title, author or tagged songs with the opportunity to change the title or category for each song.  There's more!  Don't believe it?  Download it!

Separate Export To Text Feature allows you to save songs as plain text but lets you use Rich Text features for sharper printouts.  Optionally saves as Rich Text too!  Tabs and lyrics created with TLC are totally distributable and can be loaded into any editor!  This means you can share your TLC files with other web based tab sites and people without TLC can use them.

Capo Calculator!  Select your key then TLC will show you the transposed key for all the frets the capo can be used on.  Very handy if you know all the chords to a song in one key but your singer need to sing it in a different key.

Music Aware Spell-Checker!  Ever tried to spell check a tab or lyric sheet with a normal word processor?  Don't bother!  Spell checkers don't know about chord names or lyrics broken to fit the chords.  TLC does!  It's lyric and tab sheet smart! 

Powerful Database Storage! TLC is not just an a really cool tab editor. It's a database! All your data is stored in an ACCESS 2000 MDB which you can utilize with Microsoft Access 2000.  If you're inclined to do so, you can develop your own applications based on TLC data or perform bulk changes and updates through Access.  TLC also uses the database when generating HTML web pages.

Lyric sheet generation. TLC can automatically generate a separate, editable sheet containing only the lyrics. Ideal for churches or organizations needing lyrics for overhead projectors or to hand out.  Enter a song once, then print it with or without chords!

As a demo/tutorial and a special gift, TLC comes with tabs and lyrics for 18 Christmas songs.
