GUITAR PRO 7.5 - Ola Testing Shit

[@OlaEnglund]

Making all my upcoming albums in Midi from now on with Guitar Pro 7.5 ADVERTISMENT - Right now if you buy a Solar Guitar from www.solar-guitars.com you will receive a Guitar Pro 7.5 license for free. Valid up until 3 January 2019 www.solar-guitars.com

[@algunnickvalido]

What about Chile?

[@jeffash2232]

Mr. Ola Englund, I really appreciate all your testing reviews, they are really helpful. Ive seen all your amp head reviews but being a metal head, Ive never seen a review on the Fender Metal Head MH500. It's the only metal amp head I'm aware that fender has made I'm sure it has a fantastic clean channel but curious how it sounds because it surprisingly has a noise gate in the head and a fx to tighten the gate as well as a tight drive and loose drive specifically made for drop tunnings. I just think it would be a sic review from you with your Thrashing on the guitar, let me know what you think! Thanks Ola!

All in midi? My dream has been fulfilled.

[@MikeBellMetal]

[@BenjiBaret]

Tip : use a virtual midi cable ( like LoopMIDI ) to route your GP tracks to your favorite Plug-ins / VST ( Superior drummer for drums or Shreddage for guitars for example ) and enhance your GP experience by 666%, a LOT better than using the RSE engine

[@Danny_Aniss]

Holy crap I never thought of routing my GP midi to a VSTi! This is genius

[@TheKayser13]

How you do this ? Sounds like a cool idea ! It's an option in GP ?

[@BenjiBaret]

@@TheKayser13 create the virtual midi cable(s) on LoopMIDI, then you'll simply find them on the list of available midi outputs in the Audio/MIDI settings of GP. Select the track you want on GP, use MIDI of course ( not RSE ) and you'll have the option to send it on a different port and channel Open your VST / Plug-in and make sure your IN matches whatever OUT port / channel you're using on GP. Bear in mind that a single port can hold 128 channels so no need to create too many extra ports, use the different channels available

Haha you've read my mind :D

[@benjaminmichaut9996]

@@robinflick5516 ... then spent 5 years to learn how to play it lol.

[@IIrogers]

I always use it to write songs. It helps me understand music as whole and come up with ideas for second guitar, bass and drum

[@EnDTh3S1L3NcE]

Yeah likewise here. Also in response to ildur, i personally come up with a riff first then write it in. There is the odd occasion where i write a part inside the program i then have to learn (Have a song thats done with finger picking that i actually cant play because ive always played with a pick lol) but for the most I write it first, tab it second just so i dont forget it

[@Siranonim]

@@BlazonStone I like to come up with the base of the song on real guitar. It's just easier to make smooth transitions and things don't sound that weird. For example strumming chords will sound terrible in gp even if I try to mimmick the changes in velocity. Also, getting involved in the tedious process of tabbing and clicking with your mouse can kill the creativity at the moment. When I have the riff written down, I add drums and it becomes basically a backing track for me to improvise bass and leads. GP is great for storing your musical ideas and playing around with them. You don't have to deal with not remembering how you played this one specific riff 5 years ago because you have tabs not just recorded audio. I have few huge files with all the riffs and I just move them around the project and have multiple versions of every riff with different following riffs.

[@matthewlima1882]

I’ve been using GP for years now. It’s helped turn me from a classic dad rock player into a metal player with use of the metronome and speed training features. It’s a great product!

[@DragonFlopp]

I just upgraded to 7.5 from 5 and I love it. A lot of great improvements to automation and tone options. It's definitely worth the money.

[@SchwartzerAdler]

Can you now again change instruments in the track? Can you add more than 10 different tracks now? Is it as intuitive as GP5? Is the drum notation still as crappy as GP6?

[@DragonFlopp]

@@SchwartzerAdler Not sure what you mean by changing the instrument in a track, but if you mean automating instrument changes in a track, yes, you can do that. You could do that in GP5. I'm pretty sure there's still a decent track limit, but I'm not entirely sure. Yes, it's intuitive. Takes a little getting used to, but it's all pretty simple and easy to understand if you click around for awhile. Drum programming is the same as in GP5. I pretty much memorized the drum sample numbers so I never really had too much trouble with inputting drums.

[@guitarpro]

Hi, @@SchwartzerAdler, yes, you can change the track's sound during the song with "Sound Automations". Yes, you can add as many tracks as you want. The tablature notation and a new Drumkit View for editing drums are now available. 😉

[@stefanmetzger1814]

If I purchase the latest version of Guitar Pro 7.5 or 7.6, will I be able to convert my compositions from Guitar Pro 5?

[@TriumphWithoutGlory]

Something awesome with guitar pro too is that you can tab your drum parts then export it in midi and load it in you DAW. Great for drummers who doesn't have any DAW or have no idea how to program drums but know how to write it ! You can do the same thing with Piano or Keyboard ! Awesome

[@Ariakiri_]

The entire music theory tool just sold me on this. It seems like such a beneficial creativity tool! Thanks for the video on this.

[@ryanwilson5936]

At one point, I had the entire “my song book” library. It was massive. I miss using torrents.......... Also, that chord progression is “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” by Green Day.

[@pigpenclymer6098]

This is a fantastic video, I bought guitar pro a month or two ago but I’ve been exclusively using it for learning songs, hadn’t dove in to the deeper features. This gives me a lot of ideas for how I can use it to compose.

[@StonyBlazestation]

I use GP tab files whenever I'm working on a cover. I export the midi tracks for the drums and load them up in my DAW and let Superior Drummer do the playing. It makes it much more fun to learn the guitar parts when you have a really nice drum sound to play over.

[@tamask7749]

[@hammer2201]

I LOVE Guitar Pro... I've been used since the version 3. My favorite tool to practice and compose!!!!!

[@AllenHarrison]

I think guitar pro was an important part in my learning when i was first starting and got intermediate. I got it when it was at guitar pro 4, and i think it made me better because on top of being a playback software, the tabs were often much more accurate than the regular ones, at least on Ultimate-Guitar. I don't think i would be as good if I couldn't find all the songs and stuff when ever I wanted, and there's pretty much every song out there in a guitar pro format!

I'm using TuxGuitar. It's less comfortable to use, it uses standart MIDI sounds for playback but it free ( GNU LGPL License) and can open power tabs for mac. Also it's small, fast and more stable.

Love from a female guitarist, you're reviews help me so much in gear and learning music! Fist bump and metal horns up! Thanks Ola!

[@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 OOOOLLLLAAAAAHH. :)

[@daibaandtheghostmachine8952]

You can import/export MIDI into guitar pro too. It's great if you made some crazy shit in Ableton or something and want to turn it into tabs to learn.

[@DalkielDamion]

OMFG! DUDE! OLA! You made my morning brother. Starting @5:26 If I was drinking something it would of shot out of my noise! I just recently (less then 7 days) bought Guitar Pro 7.5. I enjoy it, it's a little bit of a learning curve for me being out of the music game for 11 years. A question? Can you hook up your guitar and play something and have it tab out in Guitar Pro? For example, using a MIDI product like Fishman Triple Play? I really want to see someone do it. Will you take that Challenge?

[@lefonddeenfer9844]

Hello Ola, thank you for a review, have been using a cracked Guitar Pro 5.2 for a 10 years. The question - what is that explorer you had? How many frets do you have there? I think it will be pretty unique if it is a 24 frets explorer!!! Thank you, mr. President ;)

[@Rock-N-Roll-618]

I've been using GP since gp3. Love it I recommend to everyone.

[@benjaminmichaut9996]

Tux Guitar is able to do all of this for FREE. I use it for several years now and I never really find any extra functions in GP that could have make me move for it. If somebody is interested by GP, I would say try TG first, then think if GP is really a worth it 60$ investment.

[@LeonardoSantosOfficial]

I use the version 6. It's a good device to learn writing music.

GP is amazing to layout ideas of the whole palette of instruments. Although I am enjoying writing by jamming to a premade drumtrack more. But if i want to finetune stuff and more complex stuff then gp is perfect for that.

[@7thString84]

Hey Ola, I'm a relatively new subscriber and already a fan. I really like what you are doing! Maybe something for future FAQ's: I just wanted to know how you've got to the point to do your awesome vibrato. I somehow missed that for years (controlled downward vibrato on the low strings) and finally got to the point were it works QUITE well. But seeing and listening to you, I'm curious, if you have some good excercises for that to improve it. Cheers from Germany! :)

Hi Ola, you always keep me motivated and informed of the awesome things that are out in the beautiful world of music. Thank you so much! Keep it up!

[@sourcecompilestudios3554]

Guitar Pro is the shit, its cheap, essential tool for any guitarist IMO. One of the best tools though for guitar pro is the Tools->Scales feature, where you can bring up any scales and modes in any keys with full scale fretboard, where you can jam and learn new shit on the fly. Great tool for writing. What's cool also is if you have drum tracks for this tabbed out, you can export the Midi and pipe that into the Daw and slam it into EzDrummer or Superior Drummer 3, to setup quick backing tracks for songs.

[@BraderGeoYT]

Interesting Stuff Ola! It seems I need to update my Guitar Pro too!

I have more than 500 riffs saved as Guitar pro files in my hard disk and dropbox over the years. Because I always switch to Guitar Pro when I find a riff, I have never properly learned how to play my guitar in 20 years.

[@Synathidy]

Yep. That's definitely something for someone who doesn't know about theory. But I mean, if you write a melody, and your fancy computer software then tells you what scales that melody is from.... not gonna change whether you wrote something good or not.

[@zakcook2271]

Still using GP5 simply for the fact it lets you use the tab for drums instead of being forced to use standard notation, if these newer guitar pro versions let me use the midi numbers for drums instead of standard sheet music notation then i would upgrade
