Cesure

Summary

Cesure is a guitar tablature editor and musician toolkit available on the web, Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, and Windows. Scores can be edited in tablature, standard notation, staff-plus-tab, or piano-roll views, with notes entered by keyboard, score tapping, or MIDI keyboard. Copy, paste, and undo work across the views. Cesure can convert MP3, WAV, and M4A recordings into editable tabs; the maker characterizes the output as a draft and says clean single-instrument recordings work best. Chord detection is free, unlimited, and runs on the user's device, including offline. Practice tools include measure looping, tempo training, a tuner, metronome, tap BPM, scale reference, and piano. It imports Guitar Pro, MIDI, MusicXML, and AlphaTex, and exports PDF, MIDI, and MusicXML. Editing can start without an account, but saving and syncing, AI transcription, and hosting a room require one. Free includes three saved scores and five monthly AI transcriptions; Pro costs €4.99 per month and adds unlimited AI transcription and AlphaTex export.

Who it is for

Cesure suits guitarists and musicians who want to edit tabs in multiple notation views, work with MIDI, or use practice tools. Its free chord detection and no-account editing offer a way to start without subscribing.
