### "Excellent and handy tool to write your guitar music"

June 19, 2018

5.0

Essential for professional guitar players or tutors to write their musics and lessons

Pros

It saves time, as you can just plug your guitar in your computer and it writes your music as you play almost accurately

Cons

It takes a bit of time to get used to with the software. Moreover, it takes a lot of time to learn all the functions that it offers. I still haven't learnt all it can offer.

### "Very nice software for creating and playing tablature."

September 29, 2019

5.0

I have purchased the app and I really love how easily I can practice using my tablet!

Pros

It's very easy to create your own tabs and play it. Guitar Pro provides you all the essential symbols (dynamics, repeats, techniques etc) to write an accurate part and share it with your band mates. It's a great tool for every guitarist!

Cons

It's an amazing software, it provides to guitarist all the essential tools to write, edit and share their compositions with their bandmates or even fans. Personally, I can't find something that I don't like.

### "The best solution for improving your playing along with everything else!"

April 9, 2018

5.0

Pros

There are so many features but the best by far is having the ability to plug your guitar into a computer and experiment with the effects. I couldn't think of a better way to learn, improve or teach others how to play guitar. Not only can you learn how to play other people's songs, Guitar Pro will also guide you in composing your own.

Cons

There's nothing not to like. Guitar Pro makes it so easy (for all musicians) to expand your skills and theory knowledge.

### "Guitar Pro, my GO TO Riff writing software!"

December 23, 2021

5.0

I've been using Guitar Pro since I was about 16 to write guitar riffs and songs to share them with my fellow musician friends!

Pros

What I like about Guitar Pro is it's simplicity. It is so fast and reliable to use it that my workflow adapted really fast.

Cons

In my point of view the newest rendition of the software is awesome and I can't think of any cons that would be crucial for the software to be better. You can't reinvent the wheel.

My overall experience has been amazing, I've already recorded a few songs, so this is pretty awesome i highly recommend to intermediate guitar players.

Pros

I absolutely love GuitarPro it has been so helpful in what I want to do with music. I love guitar, and this has provided me with alot of tools within the software to write my music, put sounds together, and record music.

Cons

Well it takes a while to learn how to use this software, so you definitely need a good couple days to get the hang of everything.

February 21, 2018

4.0

Pros

From my experience working with this software for many years now, it only gets better year after year, and with every new version release they add new features, enhance upon current ones, and the technical support is always there to help.

Cons

Cost wise it is a bit more on the expensive side. Luckily you can choose what paid features you would like

### "One of the Best platform to tabulate and also learn songs from."

November 12, 2017

4.0

Pros

It's amazing to use. The user interface is one of the best features of the Product. The previews are a nice help in the right direction.

Cons

The Product is kind of too big on the system for what it does. Customer Service could be a little better.

### "guit it? got it!"

January 15, 2019

4.0

so far it's been great--there's a lot to learn, still, but learning is good!

Pros

It helps players keep track of their recordings, so if you think you're stuck, just look back and where you were when you started. great motivator to keep up.

Cons

we're just starting to record now, using guitars only, so the options are a little overwhelming at first because we're new to both playing and writing/recording

### "Decent software for the price"

October 6, 2018

3.0

Pros

The catalog of songs and the variation of each song is quite impressive, overall. Sometimes you have to download a couple to find a version you like. There is an option to insert an MP3 of the song to play along with it, but the options to time it with the music have room for improvement.

Cons

I wish it didn't cost so much for subscription to download the tabs. The User interface could be a bit better as well.

### "just now I am a better guitarist "

August 9, 2018

5.0

Pros

It helps me enormously in my essays, it puts professional tools at my fingertips. For a low cost I have a professional guitar studio and as a result I have improved a lot as a musician.

Cons

To use the program, I must have a training as a musician, definitely not for beginners. I have to work hard and even when the program seems complicated it helps a lot to improve.

### "Relaxing is important"

December 10, 2019

5.0

I believe strongly in a work-life balance that exists within the office as well as outside.

Pros

Music helps me relax and restart my brain - I work better after I play on my guitar. I'm not classically trained, so Guitar Pro helps me get the tunes right.

Cons

I had a hard time finding what I was in the mood for, maybe a Spotify integration would be helpful, or youtube, even.

August 1, 2019

4.0

Pros

Guitar pro is able to help those who want to learn guitar be able to be lead through the levels and understand the instrument.

Cons

Some of the features were difficult to understand and were not as intuitive as I first expected, however upon regular use of Guitar pro I was able to effortlessly navigate myself through. This software is greatbut ends up being useless if you do not use it.

### "Great software for musicians"

November 6, 2022

5.0

Guitar Pro is one of the most amazing documentation apparatus out there. It is not difficult to deal with and enjoyable to play with. There are a few hazardous components yet it doesn't influence client experience in a basic manner beside a few minor disgruntlements.

Pros

As a sporting performer who likes to form in his extra time, this program has been such a lot of tomfoolery. It's additionally truly simple to make tests of impacts you like for sometime later.

Cons

Incredible instruments for making music, altering scores, practice for the individuals who need to foster melodic abilities.

Great software. Would definitely recommend it to anyone that would like to play music.

Pros

Great software for musicians of any skill level. Helps to compose, read, edit and create sheet music for a variety of instruments.

### "Guitar pro review"

July 11, 2021

4.0

Overall, I would still recommend this thing, cause it helps non music people to really play guitar.

Pros

The guitar pro is a fantastic simple way to learn the basics how to play guitar. It is really user friendly and good way to spend your free time doing something nice.

Cons

Most of the best songs and the features are not free, and need a quite a big investment.

### "Very good tool if you don't know music theory"

March 5, 2022

4.0

Pros

Best tool I've used to learn any song. You don't need prior knowledge of music theory to use guitar pro. You can also use guitar pro to create your own songs.

Cons

Newer releases take a lot of time to load and there's a delay when you switch instruments.

### "Added tremendous ease to my work flow "

May 16, 2018

4.0

Pros

How user friendly it is. It's ease of use added tremendously to work flow. Enabling me to focus more on coming up with melodies rather than navigating thru the software. Any body who does music knows how easy it is to lose that creative juice and guitar pro keeps the juices flowing. Allowing you to be creative as humanly possible

Cons

Wasn't compatible with all of my DAWs. I use a few different Daws depending on my approach of the track I'm trying to complete. Unfortunately it wasn't compatible with all of them.

Pros
