#257 - Awesome Guitar Pro/Transcription Lesson!
Added 2023-01-20 15:30:01 +0000 UTCHey friends, you voted for a Guitar Pro/Transcription lesson, so I recorded a really cool video for you :) I transcribed the entire new song 'Brainwaves' and you can see me write down the intro in real time while explaining how I use the Guitar Pro software.
This is my workflow for writing down music, exercises, or workout etudes quickly (the exact files you get here every week) and I hope this helps you with writing down your own material much faster :) Let me know if we should turn this into a series!
Don't forget to download your files below the post - I transcribed all guitar tracks of the new single 'Brainwaves'! Since a lot of you learned the main riff with last week's workout already, it's time to tackle the other more challenging parts if you're looking for a practical workout this weekend. Have fun and see you next time!!

2023-02-10 10:30:02 +0000 UTCI had GP5 for many years and upgraded to GP7 during a sale, good price. I can't stress enough of how helpful GP is for music all around. I'm not sure that having Bernth doing GP tutorials is a good use of his time. There are GP tutorials everywhere else that can be viewed. The value that was shown here is that he is like everyone else, you need to put your pants on one leg at at time. Transcribing takes time and patience. But worth it in the end.

2023-01-24 13:13:53 +0000 UTCInteresting that you are using GP in german. I mean... sure why... and I do it too :D but I know a lot of german speaking people that are mostly using programs in english for some reason that are not THAT familiar speaking that language as frequent as you. Anyhow... I indeed thought you are using a newer Version of GP and are just exporting it into GP5 since this is the most spreaded one and tbh... for me the best version out there. I tried GP6 a long time ago (wow... GP5 really is THAT old...) just to come back to GP5 pretty fast. Didn't even try 7 and now that we are speaking of it I see there already is an eigth version out of it xD

2023-01-21 14:16:47 +0000 UTCA great new feature in gp 8 is that you can now import actual mp3s, which makes transcribing waay easier and accurate, since you can play your tabs and the record in parallel. Additionally, you can just transpose the mp3 with one click. So you can play along to your favorite band's actual music in your tuning. I've also used the transpose feature for dropping some rhythm guitar Bernth workouts to B, for my 7 string guitar. :D

2023-01-21 11:18:00 +0000 UTCThank you Bernth this is brilliant! I used guitar pro all through highschool and for my music exams to help me practice guitar and it helped me so much because of the inbuilt metronome . It allows you to slow down songs when learning them and it helps me to practice writing out rhythms and transcribing music, I still use it every day and it's part of my practice routine. I really love seeing how your songs are built as you compose in quite a unique way π. Rock on π€

2023-01-20 20:52:07 +0000 UTCThanks for this Bernth! I've got a love-hate relationship with GP... and honestly even with latest version 8 you've not missed many improvements. That said, after all this time I somehow didn't realize there was a fretboard view! This will save me time! Thanks again!

2023-01-20 19:07:44 +0000 UTCBernth, I love Guitar Pro and it has been such an important tool is helping me develop my skills. Please expand on this lesson and show more. Including how you write the bass and drum parts as well as use the MIDI files. Also, any pointers on how to transcribe other people's songs? It's one thing to know how you played your piece, it's another to try to figure out what someone else is playing and where on the fretboard they're playing it.
