Hello everyone, I am looking for software to write music sheets and tabs. A friend and music teacher uses Guitar Pro, but it’s a little pricey for my occasional use.
It doesn’t have to be an all-in-one solution. So for example, if you know a piece of software that does just cord visualization that’s also highly appreciated.
Tiny bit of context: LilyPond is basically LaTeX for sheet music.
Really good for transcribing and if you enjoy working with text.
But it does have somewhat of a learning curve, which might not be worth it for occasional use…
I have written a template that I can just add notes to in a very simple notation and I get three scores, one tabbed for chromatic, one tabbed for a diatonic, and one without tabs to practice sight reading. Now that I’ve done the work, it’s super easy to take notes (no pun intended, but not a bad one) and embed it in my org journal or whatever. It did take me three or four hours to get everything working just the way I wanted. The output is gorgeous!
