Firsr of all, the soundbanks are horrible. This should have been the android version of the original gp7, but the soundbanks are like from gp5. Also you can't even view 2 tracks at once and the playback is laggy. You also can't write more than 1 track per file. Then what's the point of this app? I can do the same with the default notepad app. As much as I like the windows version, i disliked the android version. I am refunding this.
Reviews for Guitar Pro
Naaagh, I love the PC program. Learnt guitar and wrote maaaaaany songs in a wide range of instruments but the mobile version is terrible. It won't give me the option to create a tab except if I'm connected to the WiFi (???) and the Settings menu is basically "Tablet mode" on or off. Once fixed, review will be updated. I cannot stand such issues in a paid app.
App is not designed to be intuitive and smooth for tab viewing, navigating or listening. Menus are clunky and lack features. Lacks compatibility with modern phones. Please redesign and update this app - it has never been worth the price.
Version 1.8 won't let me search my album which is frustrating when I try to go into albums and at the top of them, they won't let me open them. The update messed up the way I put my albums.
why can i only choose up to 9 notes when in notepad mode? how am i supposed to notate anything? ive gone through all the settings and cant find anything. i swear i could notate stuff on my old phone years ago. i want a refund. ive paid for the PC version, dont have access to my PC at this time.
very crashy. eg open a tab from a popular website? crash. I have to run all my tabs through a friends pc version of guitar pro to get downloaded tabs to work in the mobile app. when It works, its great, but thats not often (for my needs)
best app for practicing guitar, together with my headphone amp. I can stream the audio of the displayed tracks via Bluetooth, adjust speed, repeat specific sections and more. I'm really looking forward to the big new update with black background.
I used to really like this app but there are just too many issues with the notepad. For example> impossible to add multiple instrument tracks>if there are too many notes in a single bar, some notes will not play when exporting the tab file. Also, notepad files will randomly corrupt. Cannot add variable tempos or change tempos/time signatures throughout the tab.
Wish I could give it a 4.5 star rating. App is amazing, have used it for years to record riffs or ideas on the go or to practice songs while I'm away from my computer. Which btw their computer software of the same name is absolutely glorious and I extremely reccomend purchasing, I did several years ago and it was the best decision I have ever made in my musical career. The only reason I did not give this app five stars is because you can't do certain things that you can on the pc version
it's like they went out of their way to remove features that should be default. you can view the drum notation (or at least what they attempt at notating) but not the midi trigger tab view that you get on every other track? every sample cuts off the moment the playhead moves to the next note so cymbals are horribly choppy, and the responsiveness and interface aren't even on par with some free to download apps made by hobbyists. don't waste your time or money. Guitar Pro 5 was their peak.
