Submit a kalimba tab

Made a .klby tab? Send it in. Every submission is checked by hand before it goes on the site — the browser check below catches the usual problems first.

Nothing is uploaded by this page. The file stays on your device until you attach it to the email.

1. Check your file

Choose a .klby file or drop it here · up to 488 KB

A .klby is plain text (JSON). If a file will not open as text, do not run it — a real tab is never an executable.

What the checker looks at

• a valid .klby file under the import size cap;
• notes in time order, valid tine numbers (0–41), and no more than two tines per note;
• title/credit formatting, plus a fingerprint that helps us spot duplicates.

Hand reach and slides are checked by hand during review — they are not part of the browser check.

What happens next

We open the file, listen to it, and check the rights line. We may edit the title or credit, ask a question, or decline without explanation. If it is published, it gets its own page with the notation, the browser preview, and the download — credited exactly as you wrote it. You can ask for it to be removed later, and rights holders can use the takedown process at any time.
