Something off the top of my head that I would probably use is a a way to select multiple notes and transpose them all up or down the same number of steps. Tools that cater to this type of editing would be helpful. This lets me be able to still see the rhythm in the staff and generally understand what each drum is.įorcing the matrix editor to follow some simple rules like the ones above should dramatically improve the drum tabs without too much effort.but this should probably just be a stepping stone to something better.Īnother thing is that sometimes it's easier to write out a riff, then copy it and move a few notes around. Of the 4 strings given in the program, I dedicate the top-most to the kick, the next to the snare, the next to the hats/ride/floor (when riding it), and the 4th for any fills. What I've found that helps me read it later, is to designate the 'strings' in the tab to specific drum parts. The only way to find these without some trial and error, is to view the matrix editor.but this thing is very awkward in how it places notes so it's a pain for a human to read later. So, your bass drum is '35', and your crash cymbal is '49', but you can put those on any string. When you select drums as your instrument, each drum is assigned a 'fret' and you can play each drum on any 'string'. With a little bit of 'rules', you can make something human-readable, but right now it takes a bit of effort to do so. It could probably do with a new name and logo as well, if you've got any ideas throw them my way.ĭrum tabs need a better interface, for sure.

I'll be working on Github if there are any other developers that want to help, I'll post the link here when it's up. Give me your ideas, I'll be concentrating on any easy wins first, anything simple with a big impact. I want it to become a great tab editing tool in its own right, not just a rough copy of half of guitar pro.

What do you like in Guitar Pro that you'd like to see in TuxGuitar? What about TuxGuitar prevents you from using it, or if you do use it, what drives you crazy about it? Are there any changes you'd like to see made to TuxGuitar? I remember trying GP6, and didn't like the new way of doing drums, but this was years ago. I used to use GP5 before I switched and I remember that being a bit nicer, but I can't remember how.

I don't often write tabs, but I will be writing a lot more in future, so I want to make it so it's actually a pleasure to write in rather than frustrating.

I've been using TuxGuitar every now and then for a few years, mostly for playing tabs, but sometimes for writing, and just recently noticed it hasn't been updated in 6 years! I'm a developer, so I figured I might as well update it.
