This is awesome! Too bad I’m stuck at work because I really want to go home and rock out to AC/DC Back in Black now.

sounds kinda cool..

although what is really needed (well, what i’d find useful as a guitarist) is a browser based system, that will let me upload a song and then mess about with the speed so i can slow the solo or riffs down and then tab it myself.

also, a greasemonkey script that displays tabs next to videos on youtube would be really handy. damn, if only i could code.

Songsterr: Ein Flash-Tab-Gitarren-Spieler/Lerner…

Songsterr.com packt die Tabs, die man zum einfachen Nachspielen von Musikstücken auf der Gitarre braucht, sehr anschaulich in eine Art Flashplayer. Gefällt mir ausgesprochen gut. Sind wirklich viele tolle Songs dabei und laut Techcrunch so…

And what’s with this internet thingy spreading all this knowledge around? In the good old days you had to read a book or attend university. What’s next, computer ’software’ that helps you create some kind of digital art?

Pfffff.

Wow, another step forward to musical laziness. Don’t get me wrong, anything to help a new guitarist is awesome, but there are hundreds of thousands of gadgets like this right now. Learning the guitar has become a corporate thing. What about the good old days of learning a song by ear, which teaches you amazing things when it comes time to write your own music. Its a lot like the “give a man a fish” scenario.

Though I do dig the fretlight guitar, and somebody made a killing off of that, but they deserved it. Brilliant idea and it must have been mind boggling to get it rolling.

This is a good idea, but it’s far from being as good as Guitar Pro. It has like 10% of the Guitar Pro features:

The only available sound is clean guitar, which sounds weird for rock songs like Back in Black.
There are no guitar effects like bend, palm mute, etc. So for Back in Black the transcription is wrong (the A on bar 4 is a full bend…).
It’s impossible to choose a given tempo (the only option is to play it half speed).
There’s only one track – on guitar pro you can have drums, bass, etc. and play along it while setting the guitar volume to zero for example.
And you can’t edit the songs or write a new one !

So right now I’d rather pay $60 for Guitar Pro.
