Guitar Pro is first and foremost a program designed to edit
tablatures for guitar, bass, and other fretted instruments
from 4 to 8 strings.
Its great ease of use and the success of its specific file
format have made it a program used by guitarists worldwide.
It now includes editing support for many other instruments
like the piano or the drums, a realistic audio engine, and
interactive tools to support every musician's practice.
Interface
An optimal display of your score, together with all the
tools you need for editing, sound-setting, and playing your
instrument.
Choose your display options from the screen or page mode,
horizontal or vertical scrolling, monotrack, multitrack,
and full-screen mode, and 25-800% zooming.
Editing
All of the tools you need to create and edit scores, right
at hand. Quickly and easily capture the notes with the
keyboard and its many shortcuts, with the mouse, or yet
again with a MIDI instrument.
All of the symbols and effects
With Guitar Pro, add all of the common musical symbols to
your score, most notable those that are specific to the
guitar and other fretted instruments.
Customize your score New
Based on the classic or jazz styles, you can set 70
different parameters, configure the outlook of your scores
exactly as you wish, and get professional-level paper
printouts.
Audio
Guitar Pro is also a powerful score player, which
facilitates composing or learning a piece.
The RSE: realistic audio playback
The RSE (Realistic Sound Engine) technology includes the
realistic studio recordings of instruments, as well as some
effect modelisations that are the result of years of
research.
You'll get access to over a hundred soundbanks, and over
fifty effects pedals and amps. We provide many presets for
all styles, and you can also configure your own effect
chains. You can apply a mastering to the final result, with
a compressor-limiter, a reverb, and a 10-track equalizer.
You can also listen to your scores in MIDI sound.
Optimized playback options
During playback, the score automatically scrolls on and a
highlighted cursor lets you know which note is being
played. You can adjust tempo, and play all or part of a
piece in loops. The Speed Trainer will then let you play
any section of the score in loops with progressive
accelerations. This is very useful to practice a solo or a
complex guitar riff!
All of the effects specific to the guitar (e.g., bend,
slide, ghost notes, etc.) are rendered into the playback,
as well as the various possible playing styles -
pickstroking, fingerpicking or slapping, for instance.
Tools
Guitar Pro is a true workshop for guitarists: chord and
scale libraries, tuner, metronom, virtual fretboard and
keyboard.
All of those tools work with fretted instruments from 4 to
8 strings.
Diagram generator
Request any chord in any tuning, and Guitar pro will
display all possible finger positions for you. Draw a
diagram by clicking on the grid, and Guitar Pro will
suggest all possible names for that chord.
Scale engine
The scale engine presents a large directory of scales, from
the most common to the most exotic, for you to look at and
listen to. Whichever scale you select can be shown on the
fretboard or keyboard to work as support for you to write
your score. The search function also allows you to quickly
find out what scale is being used in all or part of the
score.
MIDI and digital tuners
The digital tuner allows you to tune your guitar by
plugging it into the soundcard, or via a microphone. You
can also simply tune your guitar by ear, string by string,
with the MIDI tuner.
Those work for all possible tunings.
Virtual fretboard and keyboard
The virtual fretboard and keyboard are here to help you see
the notes from the score, or capture them into it. They can
show you the notes of the current beat, as well as the
notes of the next beat, of the whole bar or yet again of
the scale you have selected. Those are indispensable tools
if you are beginning or is you wish to capture notes with
the mouse.
