Hi! Can anyone recommend some software for Mac that will enable me to TAB out the melodies easily? Thank you!
I started using GuitarPro about 4 weeks ago…while I haven’t created my own tabs, I’m using it for tabs from Justin’s site and from my teacher. I only wish I’d gotten it sooner! I haven’t gotten to it yet, but Justin has a lesson on GuitarPro in Grade 3 Module 19, “Guitar Pro Experiments”. There’s also a code in that lesson for a discount on GuitarPro!
Edited to add: Oh, and I use it on my Mac.
Thanks ever so much. I will look out for that lesson when it comes around Judi.
Hi @davidmorgan
just jump ahead on this one. No need to wait for it to come up.
I use guitar pro on Mac (and windows) and it works well. it will take a little learning to see how to transcribe the sounds you want, but it doesn’t take too long for that.
This is a great tool for creating a tab to work from, transcribe a song into something to learn, create a backing track to play with, and a tool that Justin uses to give us some tabs we can learn from. I really like it.
I think Justin gets a kickback, but if not, at least you can get a discount. See the notes on the lesson @judi linked for the code to enter in when you buy. I think I remember paying something in the $35 range for perpetual use of that version. New major versions come at a similar discount, but I haven’t seen one in about 1.5 years now, so they aren’t annoyingly rapid.
Another nice thing - the license allows you to install on up to five computers. My husband and I share the license (which is also explicitly permitted), with an install on each of our computers.
