![]() If you are still having problems you could try flushing your local cache (go to the Settings, toggle "Advanced Options" to on then clicking the "Clear Cache" button that now appears at the bottom) and try again. (Moreover once the file is loaded to your local cache you shouldn't see the problem again.) If you go back to the track selection screen, give it a second to finish flushing to disk it should work. I realize what a crappy UX it is when that happens but it is almost always a temporary glitch. Usually when this happens if you just hit the back button in the header to go back to the track-selection screen, wait a few seconds and then hit the play (or forward) button it will work the second time around. Specifically that sounds like an example of a file-download race condition we're working on (I mentioned it elsewhere in this discussion if you are curious). I think the problem you encountered was that the file wasn't properly (fully) downloaded when the app tried to open it. I think that if you try again it will probably work. I just tested the Lumineers song you uploaded (meaning that I played your exact import, not that I imported the gp4 file from scratch) and it seems to be working ok for me. Thanks for the feedback PhaedrusV, and apologies for the issue you encountered. It seems like one could probably use some headless form of TuxGuitar on the back-end to convert gpx to gp5, but other than a cursory scan to see if that's a feature they already provide (it isn't) I haven't dug into it much more deeply than that. Most files in the wild seem to be gp5 (or after that, gp3) anyway so that's where its at right now. But the GuitarPro format has to be more or less reverse-engineered, and gpx is unlike gp3, gp4 and gp5. gpx directly, and for that matter things like MusicXML, too. If you don't have the GuitarPro app TuxGuitar is free and handles this well (it works for editing GuitarPro files too). If you're using the GuitarPro app itself you can just save it that way. If you have a gpx file (produced by Guitar Pro 6 or 7) then you'll need to convert it to gp5 to import into FATpick, at least for now. The "import song" button both enforces and mentions this, as does the user manual IIRC, but it's not something that's called out in any way. ![]() I'd love your feedback on any part of this, but I'd especially appreciate it if you can give the app a try.įull disclosure: right now FATpick will import gp3, gp4 and gp5 files. You can find a brief (and silent) video of the app in action on either of the pages linked above. ![]() I'd be happy to discuss any of that if you are interested.Ī direct link to the downloads page is here: (2) The current Windows and Mac apps are built with Electron but they won't necessarily stay that way either. It's an auto-scrolling tablature viewer, synchronized with backing tracks, that listens as you play along with any guitar, providing immediate feedback on your accuracy and timing.įATpick will eventually be much more than that - there are a lot of directions to take this in - but even with this more modest scope this M(+)VP release is useful, cohesive and hopefully compelling in and of itself.Ī couple of things that might be interesting to HN: (1) So far this has been a bootstrapped, solo effort but it won't necessarily stay that way. I'd like to introduce you to a side project I've been working on for a little while now.įATpick ( ) is a practice tool for guitar (and bass) that helps you learn to play new songs, improve your skills and stay motivated to keep playing. Great little universal tabs tool, which is also very useful if you want to share a specific tablature on a website or with a tabbing software-less friend, by simply extracting it into regular text (.Hi everyone. Guitar Pro 5 (.gp5), MIDI (.mid), a raw text file (.txt), or Lilypond (.ly) You then have the option to export the tablature into your format of choice, including: Tab-Exporter is a web based tool in which you can open and view any tab file which is in any of these formats: Tab-Exporter loaded with a Guitar Pro 6 tab (.GPX) ![]() But luckily, you don't need to buy new software just yet, as there is a nice and easy workaround. This is an entirely new file format introduced in the aforementioned version, meaning that no previous versions of Guitar Pro, nor the current version of Tux Guitar (by the time being 1.2) are able to read these. GPX file not knowing what to do with it? If you searched for music tablature online, this is most likely a Guitar Pro 6 file. GUITAR SOFTWARE | Have you come across a. ![]()
