Limitations
Some limitations of the software include:
- Notes can only be inserted in tabulature; it is not possible to enter music in standard modern music notation.
- Power Tab Editor can only utilize up to a maximum of seven guitars across both scores (i.e. MIDI voices).
- Pick-up measures, for example, are counted as errors although they are commonly used in music.
- Swung/shuffle time with swung notes cannot be applied to start or stop part-way through a measure. Conversely, notes in 'even time' cannot be notated within a measure where swung time applies.
- When using high and low melodies, redundant rests that are left out (as in regular notation) are counted as errors.
- A Segno cannot be used for more than one D.S.. A Double Segno must be added in the same position.
- The tremolo, reverb and chorus effects only work on computers where their MIDI drivers and hardware support it.
Detailed bugs are listed in the Power Tab Knowledge Base.

Famous quotes containing the word limitations:
“That all may be so, but when I begin to exercise that power I am not conscious of the power, but only of the limitations imposed on me.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“The only rules comedy can tolerate are those of taste, and the only limitations those of libel.”
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
“Much of what contrives to create critical moments in parenting stems from a fundamental misunderstanding as to what the child is capable of at any given age. If a parent misjudges a child’s limitations as well as his own abilities, the potential exists for unreasonable expectations, frustration, disappointment and an unrealistic belief that what the child really needs is to be punished.”
—Lawrence Balter (20th century)
