Guitar Pro Reviews 

Guitar Pro 8 works well and does nearly everything I need it to do. The program itself downloaded easily and there were no problems with set up or learning how to use it!

This is simply a best software for training instrument skills and composing.

Great software at a reasonable price.

It has all the features you'll need at a reasonable price.

I have had every version of Guitar Pro since it first came out. It allows me to learn how people approach songs and I get some good backing tracks to use to tighten up my playing. I have used it to record ideas in TAB form so I won't forget them. There are probably many features I haven't explored. A great product that's always getting better and doesn't break the bank.

I never had any problems with guitar pro 6 but guitar pro is awful it runs so slow sometimes it's impossible to use. My PC is brand new and runs very fast too for everything else. A quick look on Google and it seems a lot of others have similar issues.

I’ve been using Guitar Pro for YEARS (since GP3) and there honestly is no better notation software.
Guitar Pro 8 is user friendly, packed with functions, great sounding midi sound engine (for notation, mind you), and just an all around excellent tool for song writing.
The only single thing I would change about it, and I may be able to change it I’m not sure, is the indicator at the bottom of the window that shows if your bar is complete or not before moving on to the next bar. Counting beats is very simple but it used to be a real time saver just being able to look for the green check to see if your bar was perfect/over/under.
No complaints. GP5 was my favourite of all versions but GP8 has definitely taken that spot over

Yes, very good. However, I wish there was a % sign for chords. Or a way to make good and pro chordsheets like subilius. That is a real problem. It’s too much on notes. As a guitar teacher I noticed that my student get confused and my band member don’t like the lay-out of chordsheets.

Great sound. The separation of instruments are excellent

Best eay to learn chords and their alternatives. Easy reading and interface! Great!

A truly amazing software for any guitarist and musician.

I've been using GP since version 5. They have all been great. The new version 8, although it has taken some getting used to because some controls are in different places than what I'm used to in previous versions, it seems to be much more fluid visually. The sound engine has also been improved greatly. These both add for a better experience.

Professional-grade scoring for broad communities of instrumentalists seeking to both visualize and internalize variously complex compositions.

The program is really good, but I've find some bugs:
-Sometimes it crashes and closes
-Sometimes when i tie notes, it doesn't has no effect
There are also some things i would love to see in the program:
-Custome shortcuts
-The possibility to add external fonts
-The possibility to move texts freely

Thanks for reading

It was a very easy process and the product is the best available.

Guitar pro keeps freezing. It is very unpredictable. The functions are great and I would really see myself making use of the software. But I cant! It does not allow me to access the chords library on occasion and mostly it will just freeze as soon as I open the program.

Easy to use, sharable

It's super user friendly and all the sounds sound really good for being midi

My situation may be different then most. I am a beginner guitar student, middle aged and working through military related ptsd. Using guitar pro 8 helps me visualize, hear and literally put my fingers on the musical expressions in my head in real-time.

I’ve heard/watched the YouTube star (Paul Davids) speak highly of Guitar Pro, and he resonated with me from a teaching and learning perspective. So naturally I got GP8. So maybe you can thank him for all his hard work and by bringing me to you.

I absolutely love that as a beginner, I can learn so much about composing a musical score, as well as learn scales, arpeggios, to full scores, and it will let me know if I am doing something wrong theory wise.

If my smooth brain can figure it out and have this much enjoyment, anyone could be successful with using guitar pro 8.
