The world's most popular audio editing software

Owned by Ultimate Guitar USA LLC, Ultimate Guitar was established in 1998 by a guitar enthusiast and business school student as a hobby project. From its inception as a web-based collection of guitar tablatures, to its present as the world's largest community of musicians, Ultimate Guitar (UG) is the most popular platform to advance and share your music talent. UG offers over a million tabs and chords for popular songs across various genres, including rock, pop and soundtracks. UG is also a platform for performance. Whether a cover of a favourite song or an original work, video ‘Shots’ allows members to reach a highly-engaged, international audience that shares their own passion for music. Packed with useful features, UG makes it easy to customise a song to users’ personal needs and make the experience interactive and unique for each user. Music is an important outlet for self-expression, but it sometimes requires guidance. That’s why in 2021 we launched Courses - a catalogue of video tutorials to level up your skills in playing an instrument. Tap into lessons based on your skills and experience and share your new skills with the UG community - and beyond. Whether you play an instrument or sing, an accomplished musician or just getting started, UG is your one stop shop for creating, perfecting and sharing your creative work.
