 Awesome Program =] September 6, 2010
Cristian Molina (LOS ANGELES, CA, US)
I've had fun writing so much music in the past, and this program just keeps that excitement going. It's great for both learning and creating music. It's worth the buy, and you won't regret it. Even though people say it's not the same as before, that doesn't stop it from being a great program.
 Don't buy this September 6, 2010

First of all the installation DVD that I received was blank. After several emails to the company they finally said that its not their fault, but actually the fault of the U.S. distributor and they would not replace it.
I did manage to finally download the software from the web site and while it is a good editor, the sound quality of the instruments was not authentic.

Hey music lubbers. I wanted to write this review anyway but even more so that GP6 has received some tough criticism. Much of the dissatisfaction is from owners of previous versions of Guitar Pro. Since I'm new to the product I have a different perspective, one not colored by certain expectations. By the way, I'm also a software developer so I can add that to the equation as well.
From my "dual point-of-view" GP6 is both a great musical tool and a well-done piece of software. The slams it's gotten for being unresponsive, hard to use, buggy, etc. are a bit exaggerated. I believe those who have trouble with it don't have computers with the required firepower; it does ask for a fairly modern machine and it's not kidding! Though I've had it crash a few times, this is certainly no worse than Firefox; moreover, the program does very frequent updates that happen hemidemisemi-automatically.
It has a rich and satisfying palette of tools for painting your musical masterpiece. It has a plethora (oh yes El Guapo...a plethora!) of RSE2 instruments to fill up your canvas. Some of them sound great (fine oil paint), some are "good enough" (acrylics) and some are like throwing a crayon into the dryer (uh, don't try this!) Strangely, the best sounding ones are guitars and similar stringed instruments; oh wait, this is *Guitar* Pro, not Bassoon Hero!
I also love the effects/amps you can use to shade and enrich your tableau. They really make a dramatic difference to the sound, just as they do in the real world. You can try out effects you don't quite understand instead of "Daddy, what does a phaser do?" "Well son, it's used to kill Klingons." Yeah, dad's a trekkie, not a musician.
You probably already know that there are thousands of GP-based tab/chord downloads out there; unfortunately, it's hard to find sites that use the new .gpx format at this time. Regardless, GP6 can import all of its predecessor formats and others such as Power Tab. It also does a nice job with many ASCII tab files, which surprised me somewhat.
As nice as all of these features are, composition/playback is the heart of the package. Let's just keep it simple here. You can represent just about any musical notation and the scores are easy to manipulate. You'd likely go bonkers trying to figure out how many possible built-in scales there are, and what each term means; learn Latin and Italian if you really want to know what these are (c'mon, you really just wanna impress chicks--I know you!) The playback will let you set each track individually so you can use it for backing while you play...say...your bagpipes. And if you want to input via something other than a computer keyboard, voila, summon the useful (albeit slightly hokey) virtual fretboard/keyboard. Better yet, attach a MIDI piano/synth and do a live 'captcha'.
Anyway, you can find all of this out yourself, I'm just letting you know what I find impressive about Guitar Pro 6. Get a copy and let's all paint some great scores together!
Must have for guitar players August 18, 2010

I'm a big fan of this program. I play here and there and love learning new songs. There are a lot of sites out there with guitar pro files you can load into this program. You can then assign guitar sounds and effects to the songs to make the realistic. You can also assign sounds to drums, bass, etc. This is a very nice part of the program.
I also write a little and found guitar pro to be a very easy to use song writing tool for guitar parts. It seems very intuitive and the button layout all makes sense.
I'm on a Mac and didn't have any issues installing or running the program. It really has the feel and elegance of a Mac program.

Too slow and cumbersome to use. Prefer the free version of Power Tabs. Much faster and easier to use.
