Page would consistently delve into an array of tunings for at least a few tracks on every album, creating interesting sonic flavors that help make so many Zeppelin tracks unique and memorable.

This opens up a lot of possibilities to create new sounds and voicings for the guitar by changing all or some of those string tunings.

Any deviation from those notes is considered an alternate tuning. Most songs in popular music feature guitars that are in standard tuning, with the low to the high strings tuned to the following pitches: E-A-D-G-B-E.

While vocalist Robert Plant would incorporate a variety of subjects lyrically, most often these influences could be heard in the alternate tunings Page would adopt for his guitar. One of the reasons Zeppelin stands out from the rest of the crowd is because Jimmy Page, the band’s de facto leader, spearheaded exploration into other genres, drawing inspiration from music around the world. Throw on any Zeppelin album and you’ll hear a mix of heavy and loud songs mixed with soft and delicate acoustic tracks that fuse rock, blues, and folk, into a unique blend. P.S.Led Zeppelin was a band that did not shy away from experimenting with their sound. You can verify this by looking at the on-screen piano during playback, but in the status-bar, as well as the on-screen piano, a regular pitch will show when merely selecting a note, so it can be confusing – not sure if that was intended or not by the development. When playing in e-flat tuning, it is important to remember that chords will be one fret lower than in standard tuning. While this tuning is not as common as standard tuning, it can be used for various genres, including blues and rock. From then on, new notes should sound a half-step down: a 0-fret on the E-string should sound like an E-flat. E-flat tuning is a guitar tuning where the strings are tuned down a half-step, resulting in a lower, deeper sound. The tablature appears once again as with the addition of playback sounding a half-step down as. It's kind of confusing.Ģ) Insert frets as quarter-tones, i.e.: ģ) Now imagine you want to 'drop tune to half-step' your 'guitar'Ĥ) Transpose Minor 2nd down via ĥ) Now get to the →Transpose written pitches to sound + also down. Any new notes from then on will work according to the setting. If you have notes already, you've got to transpose those first, and then applying the will change the tabs to how it should look so long as you do it right. Notice that the 'Transpose written pitches' thing seems to only apply to new notes.

The aforementioned method seemed to work back in 2.x in 2017, but it is verified that it didn't work as intended upon testing pre-existing notes in 3.2.3.
