Guitar Pro 7.5 - New features explained by David Wallimann

[@prodbyfatur]

Finally i bought guitar pro yesterday!

[@guitarpro]

Well done! Thanks a lot! 🙌🙏

[@johnnytruck2009]

Brilliant! I bought GP a few years ago. Stepped back from it due to lack of understanding how to get what i need from it. The new upgrade simplifies it better.

[@guitarpro]

Hi! Thank you for your comment! 👍

[@uv357raz]

One thing I loved about guitar pro 6 was in the effects section all the pedals looked exactly like the originals and were very easy to work with .. in GP7.5 however you don't get that anymore.

[@guitarpro]

Hi Amir, thank you for your feedback, I have sent it to the dev team!

[@robertscott3399]

i loved my eralier versions too seems like everytime the udate some it be MS or what evetr something get kicked in the garbage can.

Also would be awesome if we could choose the size of the "paragraph" (the space beetwen each staff. This is great to justify the staffs, so instead of having just few lines in the last page, we could full all pages. Sorry for the text flood, but this ideas are coming one by one, as I work. And I also find easier for you to organize these suggestions. Thank you!

[@guitarpro]

Hi Cesar, thanks a lot for your suggestions, we are working to improve the editing options and bring more possibilities.

[@thalamusDecimation]

I'm obsessed with your software, Arobas! I write all my metal songs with it!

[@guitarpro]

Great! Thank you for your support! 👍

[@erik9817]

That's great, I used GP years ago and am now looking to start writing metal material in GP again.

Great features, thank you! I have a request: What about a song that has a track that plays all over the song, and one track that has many bars of rest, and then play for some measures and then go back to rest. My point is: in multiple track view, it would be great to have the possibility to hide the track while it's in rest and then make it visible when it have to play. Like we had in old magazines and book transcriptions. Thank you!

[@MysticRhythmsLive]

I would like to know if GP7 has a feature to allow synth pitch bends up to an octave. This seems to be something that would be easy to implement if it's not there already.

Would be awesome if we could choose Font Type and Font Size and Symbol Size for Musical Directions.

[@herrunsinn774]

GP7.5 has been out a while now, so it's not too much of a stretch of the imagination to think GP8 will be coming down the line at some point in the not-too-distant feature. As such, we all should start requesting features we would like to see in GP8 ... My own suggestion would be to make the song tabs which appear just above the score be "movable". That is, just like in any Internet browser that has multiple tabs open, we can drag tabs to any position we like. That would be a great feature for GP when we have multiple songs open at the same time. It would be very slick to be able to simply click and drag song name tabs to any position (among the list of open songs) one I would like. If you think this would be a nice feature, please request it yourself. (There is strength in numbers. 😇😇😇)

[@chopinsiblos]

for those who complain about this update is worse.. let me tell you, all my music work were done with guitarpro since version 6, and this update is the finest update so far. the violin sound in this version is so far the most cleanest sound :) the slide issue of the guitar sound, just replace the type from slide legato to just shift slide, and it will sound the way you wanted to :)

[@nategrate98]

I love guitar pro but as someone who was a previous drummer implementing rolls and notation to support it would be great. Also adding notation for microtones. Also,also being able to maintain different time signatures for different tracks, think Kashmir by Led Zeppelin. Also, Also, Also being able to replace the sound profiles of the instruments with custom ones; I always have problem hearing the tom parts on drums when writing tabs and sheet music it would be great to be able to replace them or have an update the modifies there sound profile.

[@guitarpro]

Hi Nathan, thank you very for all your great suggestions. I have shared them with the dev team. You can send all your suggestions to them here: goo.gl/tq6163. Thanks a lot!

[@guitarworkshop5200]

When you do ' insert bar ' why does it insert on the left side of the measures and not the right? To me this is counter intuitive, bad and wrong.I have a big problem with this because i prefer to insert measures on the right. There should be a preference option that lets you insert bars on the right. Can someone shine light upon this. Is there somethings I'm missing or is this just bad design....

What about custom hide/show rests in multiple voices?, so we can choose which one will be hide and which one will be shown. When writing for Classical/Solo Guitar with three of four voices, this is a really needed feature. Thank you!

[@TheUrashley123]

Yes does this program support Fingerstyle players

For grace notes, we need improve in their playing. It's always a little off-beat.

[@lukaworm]

The update claims to have improved the MIDI export feature but I don't understand what that means because I'm still having a problem with tempo maps not carrying over to my DAW (Reaper). This includes both actual tempos and time signatures for each bar of the piece. If I want to make a simple click track for my drummer to follow for a song, it's a long tedious process to do an albums worth without a proper tempo map. For example, I had a project in guitar pro that started at 140 bpm, changed once to 125 bpm, and back to 140bpm with some various time signature changes scattered around. The exported midi from that file starts at 140bpm, but without the right time signature. That means the first bpm change is in the wrong place. It also changed 125bpm to 150bpm.

[@guitarpro]

Hi Luke, I invite you to directly contact our support here: goo.gl/tq6163. They will take a look at that as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.

[@LAWLTUBES666]

What guitar pro needs is to set each track to its own tempo and for each string tuning to be able to be set in cents value at least down to 25 or so

[@guitarpro]

Hi Chris, thank you for your suggestion.

[@SaturnRPG]

thanks man, cant wait to crack it :DDD

[@somarriba333]

They way tabbing the drums were changed for Guitar Pro 6 is the reason I got rid of 6 and went back to Guitar Pro 5. This looks better but I would rather have the actual TABS to tab the drums instead of using the staff. Can I change it from staff to tabs?

[@indefexe]

I wish you could dock the fretboard/keyboard view like you could in GP5. Having them float around doesn't work for me.

[@guitarpro]

HI Josip, thank you for your feedback and your suggestion. I'm sharing it with the team.

[@samialghamian9993]

@@guitarpro ahhh i was searching for this for a long time ! it is really annoying to write notes while the board is just floating around like said above :) please consider this in your newer update

[@guitarpro]

@@samialghamian9993 Thank you for feedback. I have shared it with the dev team. 👍🏻

[@chopinsiblos]

if its ok pls add a realistic silent to loud cymbals and also realistic slide picks in string, and also finger slides in bass.. thank you

[@guitarpro]

Hi, thank you for your suggestions. I'm sending them to the dev team.

[@chopinsiblos]

thanks for the respond. and also, maybe i forget this. :) if you could put a command button or whatever, for example, if I want to change the drum snare into another type of drum snare sound with just one button. this will be a superb update, I think :) thanks

[@JohnnyBeane]

Looks awesome!!!

[@roblarson9065]

How about some tutorials on how to use it instead of just sales pitch videos.

[@guitarpro]

Hi Rob, you can download our user guide here: support.guitar-pro.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002399509-GP7-5-Guitar-Pro-7-5-User-s-guide- There are already several tutorial videos on youtube. But we will release tutorial videos soon. Thanks

[@raincloud1898]

Hello. I'm quite new to the music software. Is it possible to convert tabs written for guitar to any other instrument automatically - to ukulele for example? Thanks!

[@crahdummi]

@@raincloud1898 Since you got no answer yet: You can just change the instrument or copy the whole track you want to convert onto your chosen track, but you'll have to adjust the tabs. They should all be the right notes but the score will be impossible to play as is and you might need to go up/down an ocatve on some depending on the instrument.

[@SchwartzerAdler]

So, besides having more than 7 strings, where exactly is it better than GP5?

[@Danny_Aniss]

I only ask for VSTi support in guitar pro, even though some soundbanks sound better I would still prefer to use my own soundbanks and libraries in the writing process, it would be nice to have this as a feature as it is the only thing making me write on my DAW's midi roll instead of guitar pro

[@guitarpro]

Hi Danny, thanks a lot for your great feedback, really appreciated I am happy to share it with the team. VSTi support would be indeed a great addition, to be honest, it will be difficult to include in Guitar Pro 7.5 but it is definitely something that we want to offer in the future evolutions of Guitar Pro. Anyway, be sure that I send your feedback and suggestions to the development team.

[@luigipati3815]

another idea is a feature that sets GP to use always open strings when available, as default. This would be good for writing classical guitar pieces, as I am doing. Thanks

[@raincloud1898]

Hello. I'm quite new to the music software. Is it possible to convert tabs written for guitar to any other instrument automatically - to ukulele for example? Thanks!

Can you add a "Ped." feature for the piano? That's the one thing missing (for me) for it to be the most complete, accessible, and easy-to-use SME

[@SpirosAbatis]

José Tercero word up. And piano fingering; not the same as Guitar!

[@guitarpro]

Hi José, thank you for your suggestions, I've sent it to the dev team.

[@guitarpro]

@@SpirosAbatis Yes indeed, thank you for your suggestion.

[@Hypetreme]

Would it be possible for Guitar Pro to disallow producing very high pitched sounds? For example if I'm writing tablature and I want a sound from 4th fret from the high E string, it is easy to accidentally double tap 4 and it plays sound from "44th fret" which is very ear piercing sound. Other example would be that I typed "4" but actually wanted "5" and I type it over the number "4". If I was too fast, the program thought I wanted "fret 45". It doesn't matter if the track is a stringed instrument or an orchestral instrument, this issue still persists. This wasn't possible in Guitar Pro 5. Also, would it be possible to add an option to edit the keyboard view highlight color? I find the current brown/orange color scheme unclear and difficult to gaze upon.

[@guitarpro]

Hi Hypetreme, I would advise you to deactivate the sound when editing: SOUND>"Play While Editing". You could use a USB MIDI keyboard to enter your notes. And thank you for your suggestions, I sent it to our dev team.

What about changeable Font Type and Size for String Numbers and Right and Left Hand Fingers? When changing font size for the whole file, they come unproportional. And options like Visible/Hide too would be great. When working with Standard Notation String Numbers are very needed, but there's no need to show they when working with Tablature Notation. And sometimes we/our customers want the both versions (Tab+Notation/Notation only). Thank you!

[@SAmfp2p]

the drum editor still needs improvement. why not use a GM standard drum map for it (midi map like piano roll). like in every DAW and TUX. that's my suggestion. Many people are used to such a layout. That is still the biggest disadvantage. otherwise I would have bought it long ago. Thanks for the review. :)

[@Danny_Aniss]

I agree! or at least a feature to choose which midi mapping we want would be amazing, adding Superior Drummer and GGD support with the midi export right off the bat.

[@AnteroJokinen]

The most important thing I want is to have the keyboard or fretboard locked in the upper or lower screen. It's always on my way. It was perfect in Guitar Pro 5.

[@guitarpro]

Thank you for your suggestion.

[@berndkiltz]

Is it in some way possible to add a comment (like "Exercise one" oder "play with neck pickup" or "please watch video for picking instructions") - I could not find it in the Demo Version. So basicaly just plain text somewhere on the page. It is the ONLY thing missing for me to switch over from Sibelius (which I hate with passion) THANKS A LOT for the Answer. Could not find the Answer while trying the demo version and cannot find any a tutorial covering it here.

[@berndkiltz]

Funny Thing: My Desk looks almost exactly like yours, Imac, ADAM a5x... good tast ;)

[@guitarpro]

Hi, yes you can add your text into the "Lyrics Editor" and then move it above the staff: 1. Enter your text into the Lyrics Editor, 2. close the Lyrics Editor 3. then go to the stylesheet (File > Stylesheet> Texts and Styles) 4. Choose "Above the Staff". I hope that it will help you for the moment. I have sent your suggestion to the dev team. Thanks

[@LAWLTUBES666]

There is one more issue I must mention regarding when the looper is on and you have a particular area highlighted to be looped-in guitar pro 6 when this happens you can click any part within the highlighted section looping and it won’t effect the area staying looped,in 7 after clicking on an area it stops being looped

[@guitarpro]

I have just gotten started with GP 7.5 and have a question. Is there an easy way to set up a template to do the following: A leadsheet that shows the timing, chords and their shapes and the lyrics? I'm having problems inserting the lyrics into songs that have a chorus and more than five verses. Having to use the shift+ key between words in the lyrics is a bit of a problem as well....any work around for these?

[@Berg_X]

Is it possible to write a score on gp7.5 and open it in gp5? I can't seem to do it, I'm using gp7.5 trial currently but adjusting tabs that other people will be trying to open in gp5 and I can't open them in gp5. Thanks.

[@guitarpro]

Hi Christopher, you can edit the score in Guitar Pro 7.5 and then export it in .gp5. File > Export. 😉

[@Berg_X]

That's great, thank you!

[@5ub2ero]

I don't know if it is only me but when you tab a metal song with two guitars using MIDI, vibratos affect both guitars which is a huge no no! One guitar is only doing power chords and the solo guitar is using Vibrato. But the rhythm guitar with power chords is also affected, resulting a wrong sound. Anyone noticed it? Also, please bring back the "bend preview" as in the older versions. So that before confirming the bend we can test how it sounds. Another thing, copying bars seems to be harder in this version. As in the GP5 we could just copy bars "from... and to...". Now, I have to select/highlight all the bars manually before copying them. Thanks,

[@guitarpro]

Hello, can you please contact our technical support for help here: support.guitar-pro.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[@5ub2ero]

@@guitarpro Hi, I've just used the link that you've provided and submitted clear definitions of the bugs and examples with file attachments. Also, when we switch to multi-track view and scroll horizontal option, the screen/staff position resets to the first bar instead of viewing the current bar in the previous state(vertical scroll with 1 track)... please fix that... Thank you,

​@@guitarpro Hi, thanks for the reply and solving the issue with Vibratos in the last update.

[@Pleusch]

Is it also possible to get a quarter step down like Darell Dimebag does in all this songs? Cant find this option. On Cowboys from Hell Album for example, he is playing at 1 Step down and a Quarter.

What about arabic/roman numbers on bars. So we could choose beetwen BV or B5. Also, in latin countries we use more C (from "capo") instead of B (from "bar").

[@narvizz87]

Will it be possible to only see the used music staffs and tablature when you select the multitrack view? there are times when you have a lot of bars with rests that just take a lot of space when you print the sheet music

[@DrowFighterMage]

But does it have tuplets within tuplets?

Or bar-crossing tuplets? Or tuning offset? Or all the natural harmonics that exist (and not just the one commonly used - there are more natural harmonics than GP has ever had support for)?

[@VinceTubesk]

@@guitarpro hi guys is the nested tuplet now part of Guitar Pro 7.5 features? If yes how does it work? Thanks for your help

[@luigipati3815]

never seen them, and I have read hundreds of scores. My guess is that this 'nested tuplet' thing is just the result of cramming as many notes as possible, often because of slurs. It's probably notated better an more in general with 'accellerando' or such devices. Who's going to figure out how 17 notes fit into a quintuplet? The no. 1 thing that needs to be fixed urgently is a proper manual, and the super weird anacrusis that is found only in GP and nowhere else....it places a really dumb and totally unnecessary rest at the beginning of the anacrusis. Not only it looks amateurish, it also creates problems at the end of the score, because the last bar must be written with the anacrusis detracted. But because GP forces that stupid rest in the anacrusis, it creates a mess that cannot be submitted as professional work. The program Notion writes an anacrusis correctly and very easily, with no fuss.

[@guitarpro]

Hi @@VinceTubesk Nested tuplets are not supported with Guitar Pro 7 unfortunately, but we are working on it. It is technically difficult to implement it as it affects the whole code. Custom tuplet is the only available option. Thank you for your understanding.

[@blckoctpus]

Cool, but would also like to define my own scales. Please implement!

Is it good to write classical guitar music with all those notes and musical values on the same measure? How many voices does it work with? Thanks.

Once in a while when I use the program it begins to skip, slow down, marker doesn’t indicate or lags behind. It’s so bad I just shut it off and use a different program to learn the bass. I’m wondering if this has something to do with my computer or just the trial program. I would hate to purchase GP and have these issues.

[@luigipati3815]

@@guitarpro , thanks. My premise here is that GP seems to be the best guitar notation software I have found so far, but some things need to be addressed effectively. I tried the latest version, pickup bars still look wrong :) a pickup bar doesn't have rests anywhere at the beginning of the bar, it only displays the pickup note or notes. This can be seen in any professional guitar score, especially classical guitar scores, where I think pickup bars are far more frequent than rock or pop guitar. You can check an intermediate classical guitar book like 'Fifty Easy Classical Guitar Solos' by Jerry Willard. You won't see anywhere, in there or similar books, pickup bars written the way are notated in GP, with the strange rest beginning at half the bar. Guitar Pro strangely forces rests before the notes in the pickup bar. I have not seen that in any guitar or even piano scores, as I mentioned. It looks weird, no pro transcriber notates pickup bars like that. The program 'Notion' writes pickup bars the correct way, but I'd prefer to work with GP as it's very specific to guitar. Also the manual is completely, completely inadequate, it's too short, and bland. The manual is a very noticeable shortcoming. It looks like a text file written in a hurry. As a user, I want to be taken - by the hand - and be shown how to use everything in the program, step by step. I am a busy musician, not a computer lover. The manual should be a tutor, not a bit of text that tells me what the signs are for but not how to notate an entire project from A to Z. Let me give an example: I was trying to add ''D.C. al coda'', so I searched 'd.c. al coda' in the manual. It returned ZERO results. I searched 'coda' and it returned a result with this: ''This function will add the Coda, Double Coda, Segno, Segno Segno and Finesymbols, as well as 11 other different types of coda jumps.'' Ok, but so what? How to I exactly add these signs? I tried to do it and I could not, because the manual doesn't explain a thing and has virtually no examples and no pictures. The manual should have copious amounts of concrete examples, and pictures, which are absolutely essential. You should assume that we have no clue about your program; a correct assumption. The manual should be embedded in the program, I find it annoying that I have to leave my workflow and hunt for the manual online, download, etc....it makes no sense. The user is buying the program to write pro scores. The instructions should be short and effective: why does the manual instructs the user as to what are the signs used in notation, etc? The manual is not an instruction book about how to use notation, it should be assumed that the user knows all that already, or if not, then this is something for a separate tutorial. Theory lessons have no place in a manual that should explain how to operate the program effectively. It is annoying to read: 'This sign is used for this or that', and then find no instructions and specific examples on how to use DC Al Coda, for example. Is there somewhere on your website that shows how to write professional scores from start to end, in several styles, i.e. classical guitar ?(that is mainly what I am using GP for, but soon I will use it for many other styles too) Another thing that makes little sense is that the project starts with a written dynamic sign, when I haven't ever entered one yet. For this reason, I have to disable dynamics entirely. This makes no sense: I should be able to decide to enter dynamics as and only when I decide to, but GP seems to go for an all-or-nothing approach. Well, that's all I can say for now, I am not by any means an advanced user, in fact I only started using the program a couple of weeks ago. I understand that I am being critical and picky, but there's no other way. I like GP and I hope I will continue to use it as I have now been asked to notate a lot of material, re-arrange, compose, etc, in other words professional work. I tried other programs like Sibelius or Finale but I'd prefer GP as it's very specific for guitar. I would recommend an excellent book called simply 'Music Notation' by Mark McGrain, it's a bit old fashioned but it's all in there :) I give you credit for having answered here, again I think GP is a great program, it just needs several tweaks, as mentioned above and in my previous comment. I am looking forward to see the improvements: these aren't based on what I like, but rather on how it works :) Thanks for reading and kind regards, Luigi Pati.

Hi@@luigipati3815 , First of all, thank you for your feedback! In Guitar Pro 7.5 you can add an anacrusis without any rests at the beginning of the bar. Bar>Anacrusis (Pickup Bar). The Guitar Pro team is currently working on a new user manual. For the Directions, here is a video that might help you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHzOp39rrNmUmLs Thank you again for your support! Don't hesitate to directly contact our team for suggestions and ideas: support.guitar-pro.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

@@guitarpro , Thanks. ''In Guitar Pro 7.5 you can add an anacrusis without any rests at the beginning of the bar. Bar>Anacrusis (Pickup Bar)''. Sorry, but no. If I delete the rest GP puts in there, then the pickup bar looks wrong, there's a space after the note and there should not be. GP places the note at the beginning of the bar or something. I have learned to minimize this problem by using 'design mode', but then I have to modify all the bars that come after. Doable, but too fiddly. I stand by what I wrote earlier: the program Notion does it correctly, very easily, I select 'pickup bar' and a pickup bar it becomes. I still prefer GP for the guitar. And yes, we need a really in depth manual, packed with pictures, examples and tutorials, like most other professional software. You have to assume we can barely send an email. I always choose my software based on how well and quickly I can learn to use it. I am sure GP can turn out to be the ONLY notation program for pro guitarists. :) Thanks for the video link.

Is there any way to revert back to the previous update? Slides and drums sound worse in 7.5

[@luigipati3815]

'Dal Segno', not 'Da Segno'. 'Da Capo' is correct

Take my money

[@Gabrol]

the amount of bugs and things that doesn't work like they should are the reasons I didn't buy Guitar Pro yet, which is sad because I really love the concept :(

RSE still sounds like crap compared to anything from Orange Tree Samples, Ample Sound, Impact Soundworks, etc. Just allow us to use VSTs already, please.

You just don't know how to dial it in.

People at guitarpro are shit! GP6 has been sitting online and not improve for many years. When i finally come across it sometime ago, i bought it to try it out as it seems helpful to guitar players like myself. At the point of my purchase, there is totally no news or even a single hint on their website whatsoever that GP7 is coming out soon. And what the fuck, just a few months after i bought the GP6, version 7 was released. I emailed them and expressed my unhappiness cos if they were to inform me that ver7 is coming out soon, i would rather wait awhile and purchase version7 instead of the many years old and outdated version6. And guess what, those people from guitar pro didn't even reply my email at all!! Despite the fact that i am their genuine customer looking for aftersales response! So fuck it! I m not even using GP6 now. I rather write my notes with pen and papers!!! You guys are cheat!!!!
